India vs New Zealand T20s: 4 players who could be valuable picks in your fantasy playing XI

#2 Kane Williamson

Kane Williamson

Kane Williamson returns to lead New Zealand against India, after missing out on the last two T20I series. Not only does the skipper wants to score runs but also build a squad for the World Cup, which is 9 months away. The right-hander's presence will be key for the home team.

His calm demeanour gets reflected in his batting style, which eases the pressure off his team mates. Despite playing orthodox risk-free cricketing shots, Williamson is one of the most effective players in the T20 format. The way he played in IPL 2018 showed his adaptability for the format. So, the 2019 World Cup's player of the tournament will be a tough nut to crack for the Indian bowlers.

It will be interesting to see where Williamson bats. Martin Guptill, Colin Munro, and Tim Seifert form a solid top-3. Colin de Grandhomme found success at no.4. So the challenge for the captain is to find a perfect batting slot for himself. On his day, he could win games single-handedly. So it is worthy enough to pick him in your squad.
