Devon Conway , Mitch Hay, Jimmy Neesham and Tim Robinson have joined the New Zealand T20I squad in Harare for the upcoming Tri-Series against Zimbabwe and South Africa.
Wicketkeeper-batter Conway will replace Finn Allen for the full T20I series, after Allen was ruled out earlier this week with a foot injury.

Hay, Neesham and Robinson will join the squad as additional cover for Michael Bracewell, Mark Chapman, Glenn Phillips, and Rachin Ravindra, who are all involved in the Major League Cricket final on Monday.
BLACKCAPS head coach Rob Walter expressed his disappointment for Allen.
“We’re really gutted for Finn,” said Walter.
“I was looking forward to working with him and seeing him continue his form from the MLC, but unfortunately, injuries happen.
We’re lucky to be able to call on someone of Devon’s quality to step in.”
Walter said the team had anticipated the need to expand the squad.
“We knew there was a possibility a handful of players could be involved in the MLC final on Monday, so we’re bringing in Mitch, Jimmy, and Tim as possible replacements.”
New Zealand will face South Africa in their opening Tri-Series match on Wednesday.
