Australia all-rounder James Faulkner will miss the remaining two one-day internationals against New Zealand after injuring his right hamstring in Wednesdays series opener in Auckland. Marcus Stoinis, who made his only ODI appearance against England in September, will replace Faulkner whose injury comes six weeks before Australia begin their Twenty20 World Cup campaign in India.James reported increased stiffness in his right hamstring during the first innings and found it difficult running during our batting innings, Cricket Australias sports science and sport medicine manager Alex Kountouris said. Unfortunately, with the short turnaround between games we do not believe he will recover in time to take any further part in the series.As a result, he will return to Melbourne to have scans and start rehabilitation.

Marcus Stoinis played for the Melbourne Stars in the Big Bash National selector Rod Marsh said: Its unfortunate that James has suffered this injury but the situation presents another good opportunity for Marcus Stoinis.He is a promising young all-rounder who had a taste of international cricket last winter in England, and hopefully this call-up will continue with his development.
