5) Kane Williamson

The black and white keys of the piano can barely exist without each other, and if ABD were the thrill of the black keys - the minors and the sharps - the white keys are Kane Williamson.
Textbook simplicity at its finest. He has the elegance of simplicity. If you look at the Kiwi’s game, there is no dominating presence of brute and power, just sheer timing and deft touch.
Be it the cheeky dab to third man, or the pristine cover drives with a packed offside field, Williamson treats the ball with great respect. If you ask the cricket ball which Kiwi it would prefer between the Macho McCullum or Kool Kane, the answer is obvious.
