The Blackcaps' attack may be hampered today with news that fast bowler Hamish Bennett is unlikely to take to the pitch in the second day of the first cricket test against India

Bennett sustained a groin injury while bowling in Ahmedabad yesterday and is undergoing treatment today.

Bennett said he was 'gutted' to be sidelined and will do everything he can so he is fit to play later in the test match.
