Kane Williamson to miss Mumbai Test as well
New Zealand have taken a “cautious approach” with Kane Williamson by ruling out the star batter from the side’s third and final Test against India in Mumbai, starting November 1.
For the first time in the history of Indian Premier League (IPL) that viewers will witness a women’s T20 challenge match in the cash-rich league.
The match will be played at the Wankhede stadium before the first qualifier between MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings and Kane Williamson’s SunRisers Hyderabad.
