Kane Williamson doesn’t play the booming strokes by any means. Rather, he prefers to pierce the gaps and manoeuvre the field with his versatile gameplay. The Tauranga-born goes about his business in a silent manner without caring about the limelight.

After making his debut in 2010, the veteran not only grew as the New Zealand skipper but also groomed himself into one of the best with the bat. In 83 Tests, Kane has notched 7115 runs at an average of 54.31 with 24 centuries and 32 fifties.

In the last five months, the right-hander had scores of 251 and 238, showing his potential with the willow. If he gets his eyes in, then oppositions find it tough to dislodge him. Despite being deemed as a circumspect batter, Williamson has gotten nearly 5,300 runs in T20s at a strike rate of 125.55.
