New Zealand Herald: New Zealand head coach Rob Walter has confirmed that star batter Kane Williamson remains committed to international cricket, even though the 34-year-old has opted out of the upcoming tour of Zimbabwe and declined a central contract for the 2024–25 season.

Williamson, one of the greatest cricketers to represent New Zealand, has chosen to manage his workload and pursue opportunities in franchise cricket, but his long-term involvement with the Black Caps remains firmly on the table, according to Walter.

Speaking to the New Zealand Herald, Walter shed light on his recent conversation with the veteran batter. “Myself and Kane have had a nice conversation, a long conversation,” Walter said.
