The governing International Cricket Council (ICC) is in talks with several boards which have yet to pay prize money from this year's Twenty20 World Cup to the players, sources told Reuters on Thursday.
Williamson's decision marks the end of an era for a New Zealand team which made the semi-finals of the previous three T20 World Cups and the 2021 final but ultimately missed out on a maiden white-ball title.
India, Australia, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh will feature in Group 1 while West Indies, South Africa, England, and the USA will feature in Group 2.
Seven runs is also the fewest ever conceded by a South African man in a full allocation of four overs in a T20I.
David Wiese was the hero for the Africans, blasting 13 runs in Namibia's super over total of 21 before then restricting Oman to 10 runs to seal victory.
Last September, Nepal's victory by a staggering 273 runs against Mongolia was the biggest margin by runs in all T20s -- but Airee's astonishing part in that win included the fastest T20 fifty in just nine balls.
Bangladesh enter the T20 World Cup with a bit of uncertainty as they continue to look for their strongest XI. Experienced opener Litton Das has been out of form of late with an average of 13.16 this year in six matches. Although teammate Tawhid Hridoy is confident that Das will make a strong comeback in the tournament.
The laid-back allrounder headlines an experienced and settled 15-man squad for the June tournament, looking to make amends for their failure to reach the knockout rounds on home soil at the last event in 2022.
"What we've been able to do throughout the last year as a T20 group, the players we've exposed, has brought us to this moment," said Sammy. "And I think we're about to knock it out of this world."

West Indies and New Zealand are the top-ranked teams in Group C, but will face strong resistance from Afghanistan, Uganda and Papua New Guinea as they aim to make it through to the second round.
