Watch: Kane Williamson breaks into hilarious dance after being hit by Hardik Pandya’s brutal shot

New Zealand National Cricket Team batter Kane Williamson stole the limelight with his antics during the ongoing game against India National Cricket Team in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The match between the teams is taking place at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai.

Kane Williamson came up with a hilarious reaction after getting hit by Hardik Pandya's shot during the 45th over of the Indian innings. It happened on the 5th ball when William ORourke was bowling and the India National Cricket Team all-rounder was finding it hard to score.

William O'Rourke bowled a 143.9 kmph ball that was a good length and wider, getting a bit of extra bounce. Hardik Pandya cut the ball hard and it went straight to Kane Williamson at the point. However, it came really hard and it gave the Kiwi player extreme pain.

As Kane Williamson was hit, he came with an animated reaction as he kicked around and flinched his hands to gesture that was painful. Even commentators couldn't hold their laugh as the video went viral on the internet within seconds.

Kane Williamson came up with the magical effort in the field to remove Ravindra Jadeja.

After that hilarious antics, Kane Williamson came up with the magical effort in the field to remove Ravindra Jadeja. The Kiwi batter picked a stunner, and this marked his second sensational catch in the match, having removed Axar Patel with the blinder early on his innings.

Ravindra Jadeja cut the back of length delivery outside off from Matt Henry. The ball went to the left of Kane Williamson at backward point. It was dying down on him but he swooped low and gathered it with his left hand to send the India National Cricket Team all-rounder packing for 16 runs.

The New Zealand National Cricket Team had a solid outing with the ball as they put pressure on the Indian batters right from the start. Matt Henry was the pick of the bowlers as he bagged a fifer, and his spell restricted the Rohit Sharma-led side to a total of 249 runs.

I think the way we came out there and the surface helped and put India under pressure - Matt Henry

While talking about his spell with the ball, Matt Henry acknowledged the effort of his team that put India under pressure. He admitted that they had restricted the opposition to the low total but was quick to say that they need to bat well to chase the target. Speaking to broadcasters, he said:

'I think the way we came out there and the surface helped and put India under pressure. Very happy with the total but still need to do a big job with the bat. We talked about getting wickets and the pressure was getting us wickets. There are some ebbs and flows on this wicket and if we can put the pressure back on, that should help us."
