Throughout his career, Williamson has consistently demonstrated high-level performance and leadership qualities. He was named captain of the New Zealand U-19 team for the 2008 U-19 Cricket World Cup. He later led the New Zealand national team to significant achievements, including victory in the 2021 ICC World Test Championship final and reaching the finals of the 2019 Cricket World Cup and 2021 T20 World Cup.
