Kane Williamson steps down from captaincy
NEW DELHI [Maha Media]: Kane Williamson, one of cricket's modern greats, has decided to relinquish his white-ball captaincy and has opted out of a national contract for the 2024-25 season. The decision comes just days after New Zealand's unexpected early exit from the T20 World Cup.
Williamson, who recently expressed his commitment to aiding the team's progress, cited an overseas opportunity during the New Zealand summer as a reason for not accepting the central contract. Despite stepping down from Test captaincy in December 2022, he remains committed to playing all formats outside the January period.
NZC CEO Scott Weenink acknowledged Williamson's contributions and highlighted that the move would allow him to balance his professional and personal life, ensuring his sustained impact on the international stage.
