Kane Williamson is currently the best batsman in New Zealand. Since making his debut in 2010, Williamson has established himself as a pillar of the New Zealand team. He is ambidextrous and bats right-handed in the top order in all forms. He is also an outstanding catcher and a part-time offspinner.
Kane Williamson has been a permanent part of Sunrisers Hyderabad’s team since he made his Indian Premier League (IPL) debut in 2015. That shouldn’t come as a surprise because Williamson has given commendable performances while leading the team.
For someone like Williamson, who trained in the classical batting style, T20 is not an ideal format, as Williamson has a much better record in tests. But he has proved his worth even in the IPL.
Williamson may not be among the tournament’s leading scorers, but he has been an effective batsman for (SRH). When SRH won the IPL in 2016, he was part of the team.
In IPL’s 2018 season, he captained SRH, replacing David Warner. SRH reached the final of IPL 2018 under Kane’s leadership but lost to (CSK). Williamson scored 735 runs in IPL 2018, which played a significant role in his team reaching the final. That also made him the highest run-scorer in IPL 2018. By then, Williamson had successfully shown to everyone that he could adapt his game to the demands of a format like T20.
However, Kane Williamson’s IPL 2019 performance was weak to say the least. After giving such an amazing performance in IPL 2018, watching him score only 156 runs in the following season was disheartening. He marginally improved in IPL 2020 and scored 317 runs. Nevertheless, his performance in both IPL 2021 and 2022 was lukewarm. In the IPL auction 2022, Sunrisers Hyderabad paid a mammoth fee of Rs. 14 crores to retain Kane Williamson. However, he was incapable of proving his worth. No surprise that he was not retained by Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL auction 2023. He was purchased by Gujarat Titans for a meager fee of Rs 2 crores. He has played 76 matches in IPL and scored a total of 2101 runs.
Besides his batting prowess, his cool and calm persona is handy for his team. He is known for his brilliant captaincy, mental strength and calmness. In , Kane Williamson will play for defending champion . Cricket lovers hope he returns to his previous form for the Gujarat team in 2023.
