The Champions Trophy is ready to start, and each of the eight teams will have some legendary players in this year’s competition. On February 19, Pakistan and New Zealand play to begin the competition.
Even though Pakistan will be the home favorite, the Kiwi squad also has several outstanding players. Legendary hitter Kane Williamson, who just helped win the tri-series, is one man to keep an eye on. Williamson, who is recognized for his superb strokeplay and capacity to construct an innings, is considered one of the top hitters in contemporary cricket. In addition, he is renowned for having a composed demeanor, which both professionals and fans value. A recent video with the WTC 2021–2023 winner also showed this.
Kane Williamson was spotted earlier today wearing sandals and a white dhoti, which is a distinctive outfit. Fans were taken aback when they saw the 34-year-old elite hitter dressed traditionally in the video, which has also gone viral on social media. This was a Williamson avatar that most likely nobody anticipated seeing.
