New Zealand T20 World Cup 2024 Squad: New Zealand revealed their 15-man squad for the upcoming ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 in the Caribbean and the United States slated to start from June 2. In doing so, the Black Caps became the first team to announce the squad for the upcoming marquee event. Kane Williamson will be the captain of the squad, with Devon Conway also earning a place despite being sidelined from the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) season 2024 due to a thumb injury.

All-rounder Michael Bracewell makes a notable return, having recently captained the Black Caps in the five-match T20 series against Pakistan following a nine-month injury hiatus. Despite withdrawing from the contract list, senior pacer Trent Boult also finds himself included in the squad.
