Santner, who has played 107 one-day internationals and 106 Twenty20 internationals, will begin his tenure with a three-match home ODI series against Sri Lanka from December 28.

New Zealand made history with their first Test series triumph in India as spinner Mitchell Santner inspired a 113-run win in the second match on Saturday to stun the Pune crowd.

Santner will have a good mix of youth and experience in the squad with Nathan Smith and wicketkeeper-batter Mitch Hay being called up to the squad.
