NEW DEHLI:

New ​Zealand opener Devon Conway will miss the remainder of ‌the  one-day international series against India because of ‌a concussion sustained ⁠in a ​collision ​with teammate ‌Matt Henry earlier this week. 
Fast bowler Henry has been cleared of ⁠concussion after the training incident and ‌will be available for the second ODI in Wellington on Saturday. 
Lefthanded ⁠top-order batter Nick Kelly ​has ‌been called up from the New Zealand "A" squad early to replace Conway in the squad.
India won the ⁠rain-disrupted first ODI in Auckland ⁠on Wednesday by five wickets to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match series.
New Zealand will be hoping that batting mainstay ⁠Conway makes a full ​recovery before the first of two tests against India starts in Wellington on ​November 19.
