Greetings INDFAM community,its pleasure to make a post after 06 months. Its okay to make mistakes but you should learn from them and don't repeat them in future.You know life is all about lessons.

Lets get back straight to topic.

Experienced batter Kane Williamson has been named captain as New Zealand became the first team to announce their squad for JuneICC Men's T20 World Cup.The Kiwis named their 15-player squad for the ninth edition of the 20-over showcase on Monday, with the Black Caps opting for an experienced squad that includes Williamson and fast bowling duo Tim Southee and Trent Boult.It will be the sixth appearance for Williamson at a T20 World Cup and fourth as skipper, with Southee set for his seventh appearance at the tournament and Boult his fifth as the Kiwis seek a first title in the shortest international format of the game.

There were no major surprises in New Zealand's squad, with key pacer Kyle Jamieson (back) and all-rounder Adam Milne (ankle) ruled out of the event through injury and the likes of Will O'Rourke, Tom Latham, Tim Seifert and Will Young missing out on selection despite some recent good form against the white-ball.

There was also no shock return for experienced top-order batter Colin Munro, with selectors instead opting to include young gun Rachin Ravindra - alongside fast bowler Matt Henry - as one of two players yet to previously appear at a T20 World Cup.The Kiwis will also take young pacer Ben Sears to the USA and West Indies as a travelling reserve if required.New Zealand coach Gary Stead believes he has selected a well-balanced squad and is confident of a strong showing in the month-long tournament.

My Opinion:

As a world cup  awaits,New Zealand have a prepared a handsome squad and I am pretty sure and they can make up to for as a quite a strong history in World cups despite a bit unLucky they are ,but no doubt they have a strong team and they perform very well as per the history. I'm surprise by the management here like how can you trust the captain who lost in almost everything and is so unlucky . Being a cricket fan ,I am fan of Kane Williamson and I think he is truly  a nice man with lot of cricket skills and his attitude at the pitch is truly to be admirable.

Tim southee , Lockie Ferguson  and Trent boult make a very deadly combination and if you remember the past history when New Zealand had a match against India in the semi final of World Cup 2019, Matt Henry was simply unstoppable and he took a vital part in destroying the Indian batting order and keeping the New Zealand further ahead. There are rumours that he will also be added and I think it's quite a nice choice for them.

Williamson, Convey, Phillip's and Allen a quite deadly a batsman combination and I am quite satisfied that it as you know that history says New Zealand are quite strong in there letting order and I think it's quite perfect.

So, quite a balanced Squad for me and I think to they have strong chances , allthough I will not declare them the winners or hot favorites but indeed they will give a tough competition.
