Dykes retained as New Zealand manager

Ross Dykes has been retained as acting manager of the New Zealand cricket team, ahead of their tour of Bangladesh next month.

Dykes took over on a temporary basis during the ICC Champions Trophy in England, when Lindsay Crocker, the team's general manager, was forced to fly home early for health reasons.

Crocker is still recuperating, and his fitness and availability for the tour to Australia in November will be determined next month.

New Zealand play two Tests and three one-day internationals on their trip to Bangladesh.
