ICC Cricket World Cup: New Zealand captain Kane Williamson will miss the opening game of the ICC Cricket World Cup against England, as he continues to progress his knee rehabilitation, New Zealand Cricket said on Friday.

Williamson is playing as a batsman-only in first warm-up match against Pakistan on Friday at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, with the aim of batting and fielding in Monday's second and final warm-up against South Africa in Trivandrum.
