Indian tour: Tim Southee ruled out of Tests
"Southee felt pain in his front foot while bowling in training, with a scan showing a grade two ligament strain in his left ankle. He will return home for rest and rehab, but is expected to be available for the ODI leg of the tour beginning mid-October," read the New Zealand Cricket website.
Matt Henry will join the side as his replacement.
New Zealand team is gearing up for the Test series against India with a three-day warm-up match against a Mumbai XI in New Delhi.
