In the fifteenth fit of the ODI World Cup 2023, New Zealand confronted Afghanistan on the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Afghanistan received the toss and made up our minds to bowl first. The sport started with an early surprise for New Zealand as Devon Conway fell sufferer to the thriller spin of Mujeeb-ur-Rahman. But then, a gradual partnership emerged between Will Young and Rachin Ravindra. It seemed as in the event that they had been steadying the send, but Azmatullah Umarzai had different plans, brushing aside each batsmen in the similar over.
The Kiwis suffered any other blow when Daryl Mitchell gave away his wicket to the suave leg spin of Rashid Khan, leaving their ranking at 110/4. However, the performing captain, Tom Latham, got here to the rescue and shaped a partnership with Glenn Phillips to rebuild the innings. New Zealand were given some respite amid dropped catches and abnormal bowling through Afghanistan’s dying bowlers. The fifth-wicket partnership between Glenn Phillips (71) and Tom Latham (68) was once the most important, taking the Kiwis to a aggressive general of 288.
Afghanistan by no means seemed to be in pageant to do so objective. New Zealand’s Matt Henry and Trent Boult briefly disregarded the Afghan openers. The Afghan staff stored dropping wickets at common periods and posed no actual risk to the Kiwi bowling lineup.
The pitch was once obviously in desire of the bowlers and the New Zealand bowlers took good thing about this. Afghanistan had been sooner or later bowled out for simply 139 runs in 34.4 overs, ensuing in a convincing 149-run win for New Zealand. Mitchell Santner and Lockie Ferguson took 3 wickets every, whilst Boult took two wickets to give the Kiwis a very simple victory.
Here’s how ‘X’ reacted to New Zealand’s emphatic win:
