Harare - New Zealand allrounder Chris Cairns will not take any further part in their tour of Zimbabwe and will not be available for the final of the triangular ODI series against India here on Tuesday.
Cairns had a recurrence of a hamstring injury during their six-wicket defeat by India in the fifth match of a triangular tournament on Friday.
The New Zealand manager Lindsay Crocker said Cairns had appeared to make a full recovery before the match after passing a fitness test in the nets.
Another Kiwi allrounder Jacon Oram also has a hamstring problem and is a doubtful starter against India.
