Saying that that his side looks forward to playing against India, New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson, commented on India's talent pool, ahead of his side's first T20I match against India in Wellington.
"Their side has been busy. It is natural that not everyone can do everything. Their depth is second to none. I have seen the talent these players have and there are plenty of superstars in that team," said Williamson.
While focussing on his own team, Williamson spoke about pacer Trent Boult saying that he has been a huge part of the national side and he hopes to see him in Kiwis colours once again.
India will be kickstarting its white-ball series against New Zealand with the first T20I set to take place in Wellington on Friday. Hardik will be leading the side in absence of senior stars like KL Rahul, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in the shorter format.
"Trent Boult has been a world-class player for us. He has been a huge part of our team. Hopefully, we will see him in New Zealand colours again. But it is a moving landscape, you make different decisions throughout your career," said Williamson in a media interaction ahead of the first match.
Boult is not participating in both ODI and T20I series against Men in Blue.
Back in August, Boult had requested New Zealand Cricket to release him from his central contract so that he could spend more time with his family while also making himself available for domestic leagues.
The move means the 33-year-old will have a significantly reduced role with the Blackcaps during his final years in the game, while still being eligible for selection if and when available.
