T20 World Cup: New Zealand's white-ball stars Finn Allen, Devon Conway, Lockie Ferguson, Tim Seifert and Kane Williamson have agreed terms to play on NZC international casual playing agreements for the 2025-26 season.

This means they are committed to play for New Zealand at the 2026 T20 World Cup in India and Sri Lanka and a specified number of series and games in the lead-up to the tournament.

The quintet will all be available for selection for upcoming T20I series against Australia, England, and the West Indies, though Williamson has made himself unavailable for the series with the Aussies.
