Author Bio

Kane Williamson is the captain and a leading batsman in the Black Caps. He's also an off-spin bowler, an excellent fielder and an ardent student of the game. He is 26 but if he continues at this rate, he'll very likely go down as one of our greatest ever players. He is the fastest New Zealand batsman to reach both 4000 test runs and 3000 ODI runs and is one of only six players in the history of the game to score 10 test centuries before the age of 25. Humble and unassuming, Kane is the perfect role-model for aspiring cricketers.
