Will O'Rourke To Miss India Series To Rehabilitate From Hamstring And Calf Injuries
· Sports · ESPNCricinfo, Sportstar

The precautionary measure aims to keep him fit for New Zealand's four-Test tour of Australia in December-January. ESPNCricinfo reported that the decision was made by New Zealand cricket management.
