Kane Williamson To Lead New Zealand In T20I Series vs Bangladesh

After more than a year since Kane Williamson took part in a 20-over game, he is set to lead New Zealand's T20I squad against Bangladesh in the upcoming series. Williamson played his last T20I match against India in 2022. After making his debut in the 20-over format in 2011, the 33-year-old appeared in 85 T20I innings and scored 2464 runs. On the other hand, Kiwi opener Devon Conway was rested in the upcoming 20-over series against Bangladesh.

Michael Bracewell, Lockie Ferguson, Matt Henry and Henry Shipley were not included in the T20I squad due to injury problems. Meanwhile, star pacer Trent Boult made himself unavailable for the selection.

Pacer James Neesham who missed New Zealand's previous T20I series against England, made his place in the squad. On the other hand, 25-year-old Ben Sears has also been included.
