Kane Williamson surprises his 99-year-old fan with signed bat

Legendary batter Kane Williamson surprised his 99-year-old fan Muru on his birthday. He shared a special moment with the fan and his daughter. The cricketer presented him with a signed bat on behalf of all the New Zealand players that participated in the 2017 Test series against West Indies. Later, the two were spotted interacting for quite some time. Nalayani, Muru’s daughter revealed that his father started loving Williamson after the latter donated his match fee to terrorist victims in Pakistan in 2014.

During the interaction, Muru opened up and stated that Williamson is not only a cricketer but also a man of character. He went on to add that the 32-year-old doesn’t only play for winning and that’s what makes him special.

“He’s not only a cricketer a man of character. He typically represents a real typical Kiwi. You (Williamson) have given cricket a new character. Not playing the game for winning,” Muru said while speaking to The NZ Project.
