    Trent Boult to have ‘significantly reduced’ role for New Zealand, released from central contract by NZC

    New Zealand Cricket (NZC) on Wednesday agreed to release Trent Boult from his central contract to permit the fast bowler to spend more time with his family and be available to play in domestic leagues.

    The 33-year-old Boult requested the release yet it doesn’t mean an end to his glittering international career. Notwithstanding, NZC has clarified that it will give priority to those players with either central or domestic contracts.

    Boult, who has taken 317 Test wickets, 169 at ODI level, and 62 in T20Is, will have a “significantly reduced role”  with the BlackCaps during his final years in the sport, while as yet being eligible for selection if and when available.

    NZC chief executive David White said that Boult had made it clear during conversations that his appetite for touring had diminished. “We respect Trent’s position.

    “We’ve had several conversations and I know Trent understands that, in terms of selection, NZC will continue to make a priority of those players with either central or domestic contracts.

    “He’s been completely honest and up-front with us about his reasoning and, while we’re sad to be losing him as a fully-contracted player, he leaves with our best wishes and our sincere thanks.”

    Boult said that he comprehended the move would reduce his possibilities of playing for New Zealand.

    “I still have a big desire to represent my country and feel I have the skills to deliver at the international level. However, I respect the fact that not having a national contract will affect my chances of selection.

    “Ultimately, this decision is about my wife Gert and our three young boys. Family has always been the biggest motivator for me and I feel comfortable with putting it first and preparing ourselves for life after cricket.

    “Having said that, as a fast bowler, I know I have a limited career span, and I feel the time is right to move into this next phase.”
