India’s External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar is currently on a tour of New Zealand.
External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, who is currently visiting New Zealand, appreciated the bilateral cricket ties between India and New Zealand. He said India will always be grateful to former coaches John Wright and Stephen Fleming for their contribution to the development of the sport in the country.
The result of all these collaborations is indeed cricket.
The External Affairs Minister said, “When we think of New Zealand, a lot comes to our mind. I would say that a good example of our cooperation is in fact cricket itself. From the example of cooperation between the two countries on the cricket field. Other countries may follow.”
Indians will never forget John Wright
India’s External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar also referred to former India coach John Wright, who was from New Zealand. Jaishankar said that Indians will never forget John Wright and anyone who watches an IPL match cannot ignore Stephen Fleming. With cricket we wish everyone the best, yet we want our team to win. Let us tell you that John Wright was the coach of the Indian cricket team from 2000 to 2005. Wright was the first foreign coach to join the Indian team. John also coached the New Zealand team from 2010 to 2012. Under his training, India reached the final of the ODI World Cup in 2003.
Ross Taylor Jaishankar’s Favorite Cricketer
S Jaishankar said, New Zealand’s Kiwi captain Williamson knows the most about Indians and it is very interesting. The foreign minister’s favorite cricketer is New Zealand cricketer Ross Taylor. At the same time, former New Zealand captain Stephen Fleming was the head coach of Chennai Super Kings. Fleming has led CSK to the IPL crown four times in 2010, 2011, 2018 and 2021 and has proved to be a versatile coach. Kiwi captain Williamson is the current captain of IPL franchise Sunrisers Hyderabad.
