The first team to reveal its 15-man squad for the T20 World Cup, which will take place in the United States and the West Indies starting in June. At the main event, as expected, Kane Williamson will lead the way. Other well-known names in the field are Lockie Ferguson, Trent Boult, Devon Conway, and Daryl Mitchell. Even more popular on social media than the team itself in the unique manner that Agnus and Matilda, two teens, revealed the team.
The two kids walked in, gave their names, announced the complete T20 World Cup list, and even asked if there were any questions for the media. The official Black Caps account published the squad announcement video, which has garnered nearly 6,000 likes and 2,00,000 views in the two hours since it was uploaded.
Williamson will be playing in his sixth T20 World Cup overall, and his fourth as captain of New Zealand. The squad was chosen with consideration for the many kinds of weather that teams would face during the T20 championship, which is scheduled to start in the first week of June, according to head coach Gary Stead. “I’d like to congratulate everyone named today. It’s a special time representing your country at a world tournament. We expect the venues in the West Indies to offer quite varied conditions and feel we’ve selected a squad with the scope to adapt to those conditions,” Stead said.
