Craig McMillan has added to New Zealand's injury problems ahead of Friday's match against England after suffering severe foot bruising.
McMillan was struck on the big toe by a Shane Bond yorker during a net session in Gros Islet on Wednesday and was sent for x-rays.
No break was revealed but he has bad bruising and a team spokesman told NZPA McMillan's hopes of playing on Friday were in severe jeopardy.
New Zealand also have concerns over the batsman Peter Fulton and the bowler Mark Gillespie.
Gillespie has a lingering virus and is not expected to play while a New Zealand television report said Fulton would turn out despite a broken finger.
It was also a painful day for England with James Anderson suffering a fractured little finger during catching practice.
