One of the best batsmen of his generation, if not the best, New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson is with his national team touring Sri Lanka for a two-Test and three T20Is series against the Islanders.
As Williamson turned 29 on Thursday, he didn’t refuse to cut and eat a cake brought by the Sri Lankan fans during a practice match between New Zealand and Sri Lanka Board President’s XI in Katunayake.
The Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) tweeted a couple of pictures of Williamson celebrating his birthday with Sri Lankan fans. The post was flooded with heart-warming wishes within no time.
“What a way to celebrate the Birthday! Kane Williamson celebrates his 29th with Sri Lankan fans eating a piece of Cake with them during the warm-up!,” SLC captioned the pictures on Twitter.

Meanwhile, New Zealand didn’t have a good outing in the practice match as Sri Lanka Board President’s XI finished the opening day at 323/6 in 66 overs.
