New Zealand’s Kane Williamson, 33, is the ultimate team man. Laid low and out of action after just one match at this World Cup due to a thumb fracture, the erstwhile skipper, who has stayed back with the team in the hope of a full recovery, is making himself more than useful in the meantime by offering valuable batting tips to his teammates.
