After being out of this important tournament, veteran player Kane Williamson resigned from the post of captaincy and also withdrew from the central contract. Kane Williamson wants to participate in as much franchise cricket as possible but at the same time he has also said that whenever the New Zealand team needs him, he will be seen playing for his country. Not only Kane Williamson but New Zealand’s Trent Boult, Adam Milne and Lockie Ferguson have also removed their names from the central contract. Tom Latham, who may be seen captaining New Zealand in ODIs, gave his opinion on the recent trend. Tom Latham said that cricket is going in a different route for New Zealand at this time. He said that whenever experienced players return to the team, it will be really great to see them playing, but apart from that, the central contract of the players is a matter of concern at this time. According to ESPNcricinfo, Tom Latham said, ‘It seems to me that the direction New Zealand cricket is heading to right now is a slightly different place. Franchise leagues are coming up rapidly and this is affecting New Zealand cricket a lot. Everyone is in different boats and it seems very difficult to understand their future at this time.’ Tom Latham put forward his side regarding the captaincy of the New Zealand team Tom Latham further said, ‘We have a lot of cricket to play this summer and the Champions Trophy will also be held and I am eagerly waiting for it. It will be great whenever the old players return to the team but at the moment things are not going well regarding their future. If I am given the captaincy, I will feel honoured. Getting the captaincy of the New Zealand team will be a big thing for me. For me the team comes first. If I get this opportunity, I will feel very happy. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?

IND vs ENG: Jasprit Bumrah will be seen playing to give more responsibility and new direction to his career.

Bumrah has been made the vice-captain for the five-match Test series against England. Jasprit Bumrah. (Image Source: BCCI If we talk about the leadership of current Indian cricket, then the name of fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah is seen revolving around it. Bumrah, famous for his dangerous bowling along with speed, variation and yorker bowling, is currently a great player in all three formats of the Indian team. So at this time Rohit Sharma is almost at the last stage of his career and at this time Jasprit Bumrah is seen at the forefront to replace Rohit in the Test team. However, he may get some good challenge from KL Rahul. However, in international cricket it is rarely seen that a fast bowler is captaining the team. But at this time Pat Cummins is doing this work very well for Australia. Under his captaincy, the team has won not only the Cricket World Cup 2023 but also the World Test Championship. So when Jasprit Bumrah was asked about captaincy in the longest format of the game, he was quoted by NDTV as saying – He (Pat Cummins) plays for Australia and is seen playing in different matches. This is something that many fast bowlers have not done. But he is a good example. Fast bowlers are clever and work hard. They know what to do when and how to do it in the game. Also, let us tell you that Jasprit Bumrah has taken command of India in the Edgbaston Test match against England. In this match, he made a unique record in his name by scoring 35 runs in one over of Stuart Broad. However, he has been given the responsibility of vice-captain in the Indian team against England. This is going to be a tough test here not only for his leadership skills but also his bowling skills.
