- His 14-ball 50 years against Sri Lanka at Auckland’s Eden Park in 2016 is as yet the quickest in T20Is by Another Zealander and the fourth quickest ever.
- The 37-year-old lefthander’s last worldwide was a T20 match against India in 2020 – – yet he had long wanted to hook his direction back into the crew.
Colin Munro, a South Africa-conceived power hitter who crushed a large number of batting records for New Zealand, has resigned from global cricket in the wake of passing up a spot in the Dark Covers’ T20 World Cup crew.
Retirement of New Zealand’s Colin Munro
Making his T20I debut against South Africa in 2012, Durban-conceived Munro played 122 white ball matches for New Zealand and a lone Test against the Proteas in 2013.
His 47-ball century against West Indies in Mount Maunganui in 2018 was the quickest T20 century for New Zealand at that point and saw him become the principal player to score three T20I hundreds.
Alongside two T20 World Cups, Munro was in the New Zealand crew that experienced a terrible loss in the 50-more than the 2019 World Cup last against Britain.
Munro will keep on playing establishment cricket yet his heritage stays in the short configuration game as a trailblazer of forceful, “360-degree style” batting, New Zealand Cricket manager Scott Weenink said.
