‘I never thought anything about it’: Williamson reflects on Fab Four tag

Former New Zealand captain Kane Williamson revealed that he never paid much attention to the 'Fab Four' label during his playing career alongside Virat Kohli, Joe Root, and Steve Smith. Speaking on the Stick to Cricket podcast, Williamson explained that while the tag was frequently presented to them, he never consciously focused on the comparisons or statistical achievements while competing.

Williamson noted that sharing parallel careers and competing against the three batters across eras was truly unique. He highlighted his long-standing history with them, noting he played alongside Root at Yorkshire and competed against Kohli since their Under-19 days, expressing deep admiration for their distinct approaches to cricket.
