T20 World Cup: New Zealand middle-order batter Mark Chapman provided a positive update on regular skipper Mitchell Santner's availability when the Black Caps take on Pakistan in their Group 2 clash in the Super 8 stage of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in Colombo on Saturday.

Chapman gave a positive update on captain Santner, who missed the previous match against Canada due to illness.

“Mitch Santner looks pretty sprightly, so I think he's pretty excited to get back to the park. Barring any last-minute sickness, I think he'll be there. Obviously, Lockie (Ferguson on parental leave) has left us.
