[Saba Sports News] New Zealand are ready to take on the world as they gear up for the 2024 T20 World Cup. The players left for the Caribbean on Wednesday, May 29, as seen in a video on X (formerly Twitter).
New Zealand Cricket (NZC) had appointed two 10-year-olds, Angus and Matilda, to announce the BlackCaps squad for the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Their unique method of revealing the 15-player team at a press conference quickly went viral on social media.
But Angus and Matilda didn’t just announce the team; they went the extra mile to see the players off at the airport.
They interacted with the squad at the check-in desk, asking questions like “What will you be watching on the plane?” and “Who will you miss the most?” They congratulated each player on their selection and took photos with them before the BlackCaps departed for the marquee event in the West Indies and USA.
