NEW DELHI: Seamer Prasidh Krishna has been ruled out of the one-day international leg of India’s ongoing tour of New Zealand with a hamstring injury, the Indian cricket board said on Friday.

Right-arm bowler Krishna will need additional time to build up the workload required to be ready for matches.

The 30-year-old will join the India A squad, subject to him clearing fitness assessment, to remain in contention to play the subsequent two-test series in New Zealand.
