Kane Williamson ruled out of IPL owing to injury, Gujarat Titans confirm

Kane Williamson, the Gujarat Titans batter, has been ruled out of the Indian Premier League owing to a knee injury, the franchise said on Sunday. The New Zealand batting mainstay sustained the injury during the season opener against Chennai Super Kings here last Friday. Williamson sustained the injury to his right knee while attempting a catch during the opening match at the Narendra Modi Stadium. "It is sad to lose Kane to injury so early in the tournament. We wish him a speedy recovery, with the hope of seeing him in action very soon," said GT's director of cricket, Vikram Solanki, in a press release. Williamson will now head home to New Zealand for further assessment, the defending champions said in the press release. Gujarat Titans will finalise a replacement for the right-handed batter and an announcement will be made in due course. The 32-year-old got injured following a nasty fall while fielding on the boundary during the CSK innings. He had limped off the field in the 13t

PAK vs NZ, 1st Test: Williamson, Sodhi give Kiwis 81-run lead over hosts

Kane Williamson and tailender Ish Sodhi dug in much to the frustration of Pakistan as New Zealand moved ahead by 81 runs on the third day of the first cricket test on Thursday. Williamson, who completed his first test hundred in almost two years late on Day 2, was not out on 137 off 308 balls while Sodhi was unbeaten on 41 off 127 balls in his comeback test match after four years. New Zealand reached 519-6 at lunch. Williamson has fully capitalized on two stumping chances early in his innings and now has batted for nearly eight hours, hitting 12 fours. Sodhi was closing in on his fourth test half century and showed plenty of determination with the bat on a slow turning wicket. Resuming on 440-6 with a lead of two runs, both batters didn't get troubled against spinners Abrar Ahmed (3-172) and Nauman Ali (2-154), who have bowled bulk of the overs. Pakistan couldn't get through the defenses of both overnight batters even after taking the third new ball with Sodhi hitting three ...

Williamson steps down as NZ Test skipper, Southee named as replacement

New Zealand great Kane Williamson, who led the country to the World Test Championship triumph in its inaugural edition, stepped down as the captain from the longest format, the country's cricket board announced on Thursday. Tim Southee has been named the replacement in their WTC title defence. Williamson will continue to lead the side in the white-ball format with focus on the ODI World Cup in 2023 and T20 World Cup in 2024. Tom Latham has been appointed their vice-captain. "Captaining the Black Caps in Test cricket has been an incredibly special honour," said Williamson, who took over the role in 2016 from Brendon McCullum. "For me, Test cricket is the pinnacle of the game and I've enjoyed the challenges of leading the side in the format." Statistically, Williamson is the best Test captain in New Zealand's history, winning 22 of 40 matches at the helm, as well as eight draws and just 10 defeats. Under his leadership, New Zealand reached the top of the Test rankings before emergin

T20 World Cup: Tough pill to swallow, says Williamson after semifinal loss

A crestfallen New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson said losing the T20 World Cup semifinal was a "tough pill to swallow" but admitted that his team was not disciplined enough to challenge a far-superior Pakistan here on Wednesday. New Zealand, last edition's runners-up, were outclassed in the semifinal by Pakistan, who dished out a clinical show to notch up a comfortable seven-wicket win to sail into their third T20 World Cup final. "Very disappointing to not make Pakistan work a lot harder. They were outstanding. We were outplayed. It's a tough pill for us to swallow. Babar (Azam) and (Mohammad) Rizwan put us under pressure," Williamson said during the post-match presentation ceremony. Pakistan first restricted New Zealand to 152 for four on a slow SCG track and then chased down the target with consummate ease, riding on skipper Babar and Rizwan's attacking fifties to book their place in the T20 World Cup final after 13 years. "We were put under pressure early. Pakistan bowled very
