Indian captain Virat Kohli
New Zealand captain Kane Williamson said the two had known each other for a long time as they called him a ‘partner’.
Kane Williamson finally put his hands on the World Championship title. New Zealand, under Williamson’s leadership, defeated India by eight wickets to win the first ICC World Test Championship last week. New Zealand were the top team at the Ageas Bowl in Southampton in every aspect of the game – be it bowling, fielding, or batting. Williamson came close to winning the 2019 World Cup as New Zealand lost in the match due to a border counting rule.
Williamson was in the middle as New Zealand chased the Indian run of 139 runs. Williamson was greeted by India captain Virat Kohli after winning the match. One of Williamson’s photos that coincided with Kohli after winning the WTC final was a huge hit.

And that’s always a big part of the game and over the years get the chance to meet people all over the world, build this unique relationship. and you often get a little out of common with them and share your interests and that’s very important, “

I was trying to tell the boys to just calm down but they didn’t listen to me very well. I think there was a lot of fun, and there was a perfect mix of emotions and feelings. a little different, he said.
“For me, joining a team as a leader is very focused on that but the team as a whole and maybe a bigger picture of how it tracks and tries to work in that space as much as possible. The rewards or not, are products that come out of that,” Williamson concluded.

If Australia had led 80 or 100 runs, a second innings would have been easier for us. For India to drop 328 in the final innings, the first innings partnership in the seventh wicket between Shardul and Washington played a major role.
