The experienced opening batsman was considered a doubtful starter for Sunday’s Super 12 game against India in Dubai.
“Martin Guptill’s left big toe is badly bruised and pretty sore but the sense is that he will still be available for Sunday night’s game,” New Zealand Cricket said in a statement.
“He will be further assessed at training tomorrow (Friday).”
New Zealand will train on Friday and Saturday ahead of the India game, with both sides having lost their opening Super 12 game against Pakistan.
The Black Caps have already lost fast bowler Lockie Ferguson for the tournament due to a calf muscle tear.
