NEW DELHI: Fresh off a historic 3-0 Test series sweep in India, New Zealand skipper Tom Latham celebrated the win in style with teammate Kane Williamson by attending a Coldplay concert in Auckland.
The duo, known for their calm demeanour on the cricket field, shared a glimpse of their night out with fans on social media.
Williamson, who missed the India entire series due to a groin injury, posted a video of the concert on Instagram, captioning it, "What a gig! #coldplay."
Watch:
The former Kiwi skipper enjoyed his downtime with Latham, who admirably led the BlackCaps to their first-ever Test series clean sweep in India.
The series win has not only bolstered Kiwis' ICC World Test Championship (WTC) campaign but also added a historic feat to their resume.
The last time India suffered a whitewash at home was in 2000, and Latham's leadership ensured New Zealand capitalized on challenging conditions.
As Williamson gears up for a potential comeback against England in the upcoming home series, all eyes will be on the star batter.
The 34-year-old is tantalizingly close to achieving another milestone, needing just five runs to surpass 1,000 Test runs against England.
He has already crossed the mark against Pakistan, South Africa, and Sri Lanka, further solidifying his status as one of cricket’s modern greats.
Coldplay, the iconic British rock band, is currently on their global "Music of the Spheres" World Tour, attracting fans from all walks of life.
Williamson and Latham aren't the only players to embrace the band’s magic.
Recently, Australian captain Pat Cummins, bound to lead the team in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy starting on November 22 was also spotted at a Coldplay concert.
