Paceman Trent Boult is on track to play against Australia in this week's first-ever day-night Test in Adelaide, team officials insisted Sunday. The 26-year-old failed to bowl in this weekend's day-night tour match against a Western Australia XI in Perth, where both sides agreed pre-match they would each have one full day of batting.
New Zealand assistant coach Craig McMillan indicated earlier in the week that all 15 members of the touring party would play some part in the two-day game.
But Boult, who suffered a stress-related injury to his back earlier this year and was underdone when the squad arrived in Australia, did not bowl an over in the WA XI innings.
