New Zealand head coach Gary Stead has given information about this. Actually, not all Kiwi players participating in IPL 2022 will play in the limited-overs series against the Netherlands, which is scheduled to be played in March-April.
Stead said that players participating in IPL 2022 will not play in the host team in the home series against the Netherlands. He said in a statement, “The players participating in the IPL will not be available for the series. They won’t be available for that (Netherlands) series. I think it’s always exciting as a coach when you know that a number of players build the depth of the squad and that leads to the big picture of leading it to the World Cup in the future,” Stead said in a press conference.”
