Williamson wants New Zealand to learn from India defeat in final
6 Mar 25
New Zealand captain Kane Williamson has been ruled out of the second match against Netherlands in the ODI World Cup 2023 as he recovers from injury.
The Kiwi batter also didn't take part in the Blackcaps' opening fixture against England.
New Zealand thumped England by nine wickets as they chased down a target of 283 with 82 balls to spare off the back of unbeaten centuries to Devon Conway (152*) and Rachin Ravindra (123*).
The head coach of the New Zealand team, Gary Stead, provided an update on Kane Williamson’s availability for the upcoming game against the Netherlands in Hyderabad.
"We haven't put a date on whether he will be available for that first game or not," New Zealand coach Gary Stead said of Williamson.
"That's still three or four weeks away and time will tell a little bit closer, but he is doing everything in his powers to make that happen."
