The definitive autobiography of one of cricket's greatest batsmen of his generation, and New Zealand's all-time leading run scorer.

A generational batsman and captain, Kane Williamson sits in the pantheon of cricketing greats and in this autobiography he talks openly about events that influenced and shaped the way he approached not just cricket, but life.

The former #1 ranked test batter has an average of well over 50, with 33 Test centuries and nearly 20,000 international runs across all formats of the game.

The stats tell a story, which is ironic because early in his career Williamson made a conscious decision to move away from stats as a measuring stick for his career. More than numbers, Kane Williamson's career has been punctuated by some of the most memorable highs and lows the game has ever seen.

In 2019 Williamson captained New Zealand at the World Cup final at Lord's - a match for the ages: two teams, inseparable after 100 overs and two super overs. The match tied. England win by boundary countback. Williamson, named player of the tournament, will forever be remembered for his response to the result and his grace in defeat.

Two years later, Williamson would lead his side to winning the inaugural World Test Championship at the Rose Bowl in Southampton, a match that went into its sixth day to decide a victor.

The Bare Margins is Kane's story. It is also a thoughtful reflection on leadership and captaincy, winning and defeat, silencing distractions in the arena and finding the edge at the highest levels of sport.
