Chris Harris Recalled
Wednesday, February 25 2004
Veteran all-rounder Chris Harris has been recalled to the New Zealand side for the 5th and final one-day international at Eden Park in Auckland on Saturday.
Harris' recall coincides with the fixture at Auckland, a ground that has gained a reputation in recent times for poor pitches. A bowler of Harris' type may prove helpful on the slow wicket.
His career seemed over when he was overlooked for the Pakistan ODI Series and then again overlooked for the current series - before being recalled today.
The right armer currently sits on 199 ODI wickets, having taken just 8 in his past 25 matches. Auckland looms large as potentially his final ODI and one last chance to reach 200.
Harris becomes the 13th man in an otherwise unchanged squad.
The full squad is:

Michael Papps
Hamish Marshall
Scott Styris
Craig McMillan
Chris Cairns
Jacob Oram
Brendan McCullum
Chris Harris
Daniel Vettori
Kyle Mills
Daryl Tuffey
Michael Mason.
