Martin Guptill who is currently busy with New Zealand team in the World cup has also been signed to play for Euro T20 Slam first edition as an Icon Player. Guptil averages around 34 in T20I cricket which is excellent considering the shorter format and he is an excellent player to have in any team top the order who can provide an excellent start for the team to put up big scores.

Martin will join his fellow Kiwi legend Brendon McCullum who is also picked as an Icon Player in Euro T20 Slam 2019.
