Injured Chapman set to miss second ODI

New Zealand's Mark Chapman will be unavailable for selection for the second ODI against Pakistan in Hamilton. The selectors have drafted in in-form wicket-keeper batter Tim Seifert into the squad as the replacement for this game. Chapman sustained a hamstring injury while fielding during the series opener in Napier and subsequent scans showed a grade one tear. While the results are not as severe as initially anticipated, Chapman will need a brief period of rehab and the 30-year-old will be eyeing a return for the final game of the series in Mount Maunganui.
