🏏 World Cup: Match #35: New Zealand vs Pakistan 🏏DT Note: 67 - Page 9

Kane bhai se NZ ke haalat dekhi nahin gayi isliye apna toota hua angootha jurwa ke aa gaye

Nasr: "Fast bowling skills need to be re-assessed. Good and consistent length is key in such conditions. Human evolve with changes so should fast bowling"

Mohammad Wasim Jr, right-arm fast medium, comes into the attack

Prasanna S: "Two new balls ensure that the game goes till 100 overs. With interest in ODIs declining, this keeps ODIs still relevant. For example the Australia - NZ game last week was one example, fascinating contest close to 800 runs scored, game decided at the last ball of the 100th over. It produces more games like that instead of low scoring thrillers of the early 90s. No complains.."

17.3 Mohammad Wasim Jr to Williamson, 5 wides

Gone points gone already

Bashir: "Just wondering why Indian bowlers are unplayable on these surfaces whilst the other countries bowlers are not even close to that, talk about seam and swing beyond the limits in the WC." Home advantage and remarkable dexterity

Khan: "I think t20 gives you easy wickets as batsmen are always attacking this has reduced the skills for bowlers that's why odi are not to be done away with."

NZ: 112-1 after 18 overs

Vinayak Tomar: Kane Williamson starts the proceedings from where left the last game. A class player. New Zealand will be high on confidence today as Williamson, the captain, and batter, makes his return.

NZ: 119-1 after 19 overs

18.6 Iftikhar Ahmed to Ravindra, FOUR, to deep backward point
