Veteran pace bowler Trent Boult has affirmed that the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 marks his final campaign for New Zealand in this prestigious tournament. A cornerstone of the BlackCaps` illustrious era since his debut in 2011, Boult has been pivotal in guiding them to multiple finals across all formats. His tenure includes participation in four T20 World Cups starting from 2014.

Addressing reporters after New Zealand`s comprehensive nine-wicket victory over Uganda, Boult expressed, "Speaking personally, this will be my last T20 World Cup. That`s all I have to say." The 34-year-old`s future involvement with New Zealand remains uncertain following his decision to forgo a central contract in 2022, opting instead for global T20 franchise engagements.
