New Zealand’s ODI captain Kane Williamson gives update about his injury status

Ahead of the eagerly awaited 2023 World Cup in India, New Zealand’s captain, Kane Williamson, has shared his optimistic outlook regarding his participation in the tournament. Despite his positive stance, the elegant right-handed batter is exercising caution and emphasizes the importance of maintaining a grounded approach. He is committed to diligent and consistent hard work in his journey towards recovery.

Williamson’s bizarre injury

Williamson’s recent setback occurred when he sustained a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his right knee during the opening match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023. This injury necessitated surgical intervention and resulted in his withdrawal from the remainder of the IPL matches. In his absence, Sri Lanka limited-overs captain Dasun Shanaka took on the role for the Gujarat Titans (GT) team.
