New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson was dealt with yet another blow after he retired hurt in the 2nd NZ vs PAK T20I. The batter, who made his return after battling an injury, limped off the field owing to a tight hamstring as New Zealand were batting first.
NZ vs PAK: Williamson walks off field mid-game
The incident occurred in the 10th over as the Kiwi skipper was attempting to complete a run. The batter retired hurt as a precautionary measure after feeling tightness in his right hamstring.
The skipper’s injury saga
Kane Williamson is no stranger to overcoming obstacles. The past three years have thrown curveballs like a niggly elbow, a ruptured knee ligament, and even a broken thumb, but Williamson’s batting average across formats tells a different story.
Since the 2020-21 summer, where the elbow issue surfaced, Williamson has displayed exceptional form across formats. With an average of 71.48 in tests, 63.70 in ODIs, and 34.73 in T20Is, he continues to lead from the front. The T20 series against Pakistan is a crucial part of the team’s preparation for the T20 World Cup in June.
