Robust performance acknowledged at its annual general meeting
Stokes played a match-winning knock of 84 in the July 14 final at Lord's which allowed England to tie New Zealand's score of 241-8 and he then helped the home team prevail after a tie-breaking Super Over in which both teams scored 15 runs. England won the match on count of superior boundary count.
New Zealander of the Year Awards chief judge Cameron Bennett said both Stokes and Williamson had received several nominations after the dramatic World Cup final.
England Prime Ministerial candidates Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt have already hinted that the all-rounder could be awarded a knighthood following his stupendous performance in England's maiden men's World Cup triumph.
The nominations for the award will close on September 15. A shortlist of 10 will be announced in December, with the winner to be confirmed next February.
