Uncapped Sussex bowler Henry Crocombe has been called into England's squad for next week's second Test against New Zealand as cover for Ollie Robinson.
Robinson, who took seven wickets on a dramatic return to Test cricket in the first Test at Lord's, experienced knee soreness after a training session on Saturday.
He will have a "precautionary" scan later on Sunday.
England are also without bowler Gus Atkinson and captain Ben Stokes for the Test, which begins on Wednesday, after an incident in a London nightclub.
Crocombe, 24, has never previously been in an England squad but has been namechecked by England coach Brendon McCullum and managing director Rob Key in recent weeks.
He has taken 21 wickets in seven matches for Sussex this season and took 4-65 for England Lions against South Africa A last month.
Josh Tongue, Jofra Archer, Sonny Baker and Matt Fisher are the other seamers in England's squad.
