The marquee tournament of cricket, the 2023 ODI World Cup, is fast approaching. All the teams taking part in the tournament are preparing hard and quickly for the tournament. As the Test season has ended, the teams are now focusing on preparing for the big tournament, which will be held in India in October.

New Zealand are one of the strongest teams in ODIs over the years. In 2015, the Blackcaps entered the finals of a World Cup for the first time in their history. In the following tournament in 2019, the Kiwis entered the final again, only to be lost due to the boundary count rule. Undoubtedly, New Zealand will be one of the favourites to enter the tournament semifinal in 2023.

But for the team to become a contender for the title, the team from Australia must have their talismanic captain Kane Williamson fit. The Player of the Tournament in the 2019 World Cup injured his knee in the first game of the 2023 Indian Premier League while fielding for Gujarat Titans against Chennai Super Kings.

Quick recovery from injury

Williamson’s recovery after the injury has been amazing. The experts believe that the 32-year-old is recovering quicker than expected. Weeks ago, Williamson had posted a video of him playing with his daughter on Instagram. Since then, all the reports have been suggesting a quick recovery of the New Zealand captain.

The latest update regarding the recovery of Kane would make his fans happier. The Right-handed batter was seen practising in the nets ahead of the big World Cup season. It is good news for the fans of Kane Williamson and New Zealand, as the former World Test Championship mace winner is one of the best batters in the format. The cool and composed cricketer is also a great leader and inspires teammates in his way. As a package, Kane Williamson will be crucial for the success of his team in the upcoming tournament.

Here’s how the fans reacted to the return of Williamson in the nets:
