Andrew AldersonĀ of the NZ Herald is reporting Neil Broom has been named to make his test debut for New Zealand against South Africa at the Basin Reserve on Thursday.

Ross Taylor's right calf injury has seen him ruled out. He could play in the third test in Hamilton.

Broom was selected ahead of a field of candidates which included Dean Brownlie, Colin Munro and Tom Bruce.

He has scored 424 runs at an average of 53 in the Plunket Shield.
