In spite of a contract decline, Trent Boult pledges to represent New Zealand: Trent Boult, a speedster from New Zealand who turned down a central contract but pledged to be available for the national side for a portion of the playing schedule, has been given a casual playing agreement.
Boult and New Zealand agreed to mutually relinquish his core contract in August of last year. The 33-year-old was given the chance to play in various domestic leagues throughout the world thanks to this arrangement, which also promised him quality time with his family.
Despite once again turning down a central contract, Bolt has agreed to play for the BlackCaps on occasion, and as a result, he has been given a casual playing agreement, according to a statement from New Zealand Cricket.

Trent and I are having a good conversation. He has said he will be available for us during the World Cup.
He is among the top ODI bowlers in the world in our opinion and will most likely be a member of our World Cup team, barring injury. Local media cited head coach Gary Stead as stating.
Adam Milne, a fast bowler, has received an offer for a core contract from the NZC for the first time in five years.
Ajaz Patel, a spinner who was on the list last year but only appeared in two tests during that time, is not on the NZC’s 20-man contract list for 2023–2024.
