T20 World Cup: NZ batter Devon Conway is fully fit; says he's excited to be back | Watch

New Zealand's Devon Conway said he has fully recovered from a thumb injury and keen to start playing for Black Caps ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup.

Conway suffered the injury in February and forced the left-handed batter to miss the entire season of the just concluded IPL (Indian Premier League).

Conway, however, trained for a few weeks with Chennai Super Kings before being let go to recover fully from his injury.

New Zealand start their World Cup campaign against Afghanistan on the 8th of June followed by a game against hosts West Indies. Papua New Guinea and Uganda are the two other teams in their group.

Black Caps T20 World Cup squad: Kane Williamson (capt), Finn Allen, Trent Boult, Michael Bracewell, Mark Chapman, Devon Conway, Lockie Ferguson, Matt Henry, Daryl Mitchell, Jimmy Neesham, Glenn Phillips, Rachin Ravindra, Mitchell Santner, Ish Sodhi, Tim Southee. Travelling reserve: Ben Sears.
