The left-arm pacer had made his debut in 2011 in a Test against Australia at Hobart. His ODI debut came in 2012 against the West Indies and in T20Is, he played his first match against England in 2013. Since then, he has 256 wickets in 65 Tests, 164 wickets in 89 ODIs and 39 scalps in 27 T20I matches.

Apart from this, he is a gun fielder and leading the pace attack of New Zealand in all three forms of the game. Boult has rarely failed whenever his captain has called him onto do the job and he was the joint-most wicket-taker in the 2015 World Cup with Mitchell Starc, picking 22 scalps and took 17 in the 2019 event, including a hat-trick.

His performances have made New Zealand a team to be wary off despite their perennial underdog stature.
