New Zealand pacer Kyle Jamieson has decided to skip three T20 Internationals against India to focus on the upcoming Test series.

Jamieson is joined by his captain Kane Williamson, who has decided to miss the T20Is, to prepare for the two-match Test series starting in Kanpur from November 25.

“We have discussed with Kane and Kyle to decide that they will not play in this T20 series,” Stuff. co.NZ quoted coach Gary Stead as saying. “They’re both going to be ready for Test matches. And I think you’ll find that there will be other guys involved in Test matches who won’t even play the whole series.
