# Kane Williamson

New Zealand v South Africa - 1st Test: Day 3

The third player we are going to look at also happens to be a captain – Kane Williamson, the New Zealand skipper. Like Kohli, Williamson is the first player out of these 4 men to captain their respective countries in all three formats.

With the added responsibility of being a captain, Williamson has managed to score runs for New Zealand in both Test and One Day cricket. Even though he has a T20 average of just 31.35, his Test average of 53.20 and ODI average of 45.91 shows why he is the main man for New Zealand in the upcoming World Cup in 2019.

Williamson's drawback has been his inability to convert his 50's into 100's. He has 75 above 50 scores across all formats but only 31 hundred’s. Off late, he has been in good form and his brilliant captaincy helped New Zealand to win against Pakistan in a recent Test series in UAE. All eyes will be on the Kiwi skipper as he will hope to continue the good work and help his country to its first ever World Cup success.
