NEW DELHI: New Zealand's new Test captain, Tom Latham, is preparing for his first tour as a full-time leader against India. He took over the role from Tim Southee, who stepped down last week. Latham, 32, has led the team in nine matches so far, but this will be his first series as a permanent captain.
Latham and a 15-member squad, including Southee, are heading to India for a three-match series starting October 16. Matches will be played in Bengaluru, Pune, and Mumbai.
