Nov 6 (Reuters) - ⁠New Zealand opener Devon Conway ⁠will miss the remainder of ‌the one-day international series against India because of a concussion sustained in a collision with ​teammate Matt Henry earlier ⁠this week.

• Fast ⁠bowler Henry has been cleared of ⁠concussion after ‌the training incident and will be available ⁠for the second ODI in Wellington on ​Saturday

• ‌Lefthanded top-order batter Nick Kelly ⁠has been ​called up from the New Zealand "A" squad early to replace Conway ⁠in the squad

• India ​won the rain-disrupted first ODI in Auckland on Wednesday by five wickets ⁠to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match series

• New Zealand will be hoping that batting mainstay ​Conway makes a ⁠full recovery before the first of ​two tests against India ‌starts in Wellington ​on November 19
