Kane Williamson to lead New Zealand in World Cup 2019

By Saurabh Sharma April 03, 2019 • 14:55 PM View: 4779

Dubai, April 3 (CRICKETNMORE): Kane Williamson will lead the 15-member New Zealand squad in the upcoming ICC World Cup 2019, the country's cricket board announced on Wednesday.

The biggest surprise is the inclusion of wicketkeeper Tom Blundell, who is yet to play a one-day international (ODI). Tim Seifert, a regular back-up in recent times to first-choice gloveman Tom Latham, has been excluded, partly due to a broken finger which has kept him out of action for the past month.
