Mitchell was injured during Tri series against Pakistan and Bangladesh but now his Teammate Southee Confirms that He is recovered from Injury and set to feature in the XI.
“Daryl’s come through all the tests he needs to come through after suffering a broken hand a few weeks back.

So, yeah, now he’s fit and ready, he just slots back in,” Tim Southee told reporters at the SCG ahead of the Sri Lanka clash.
