In April 2015, Santner was named in the New Zealand limited-overs squad for the tour of England.[1] He made his One Day International debut for New Zealand on 9 June 2015.[2] His first international wicket was when he trapped fellow debutant Sam Billings for 3. During the fourth ODI in the same series he hit 28 runs off Adil Rashid in one over, which is the second highest runs off one over ever posted in England. He made his Twenty20 International debut in the same series on 23 June 2015.[3] On 27 November 2015 he debuted in his first Test match against Australia. That match was also the first day/night Test. He hit a boundary off the first ball of his test career.[4]

Santner was picked to the New Zealand squad as a premier spin bowler along with Nathan McCullum, who is playing his last international tour. In the first match against host India, Santer won man of the match award for his brilliant bowling performances, which lead his side to win by 47 runs. His bowling performance of 4 for 11 is the best bowling figures by a New Zealand spinner in World Twenty20 as well.[5][6]
