New Zealand and Netherlands are locking horns in Match 6 of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad. After being put in to bat first by Netherlands captain Scott Edwards New Zealand posted a massive score of 322/7 in their allotted 50 overs. Will Young (70 off 80), Rachin Ravindra (51 off 51) and Tom Latham (53 off 46) all scored half-centuries for the Kiwis.
Mitchell Santner also gave a late burst to the innings as he played a brilliant cameo of 36* off 17 balls smashing three fours and two sixes. The southpaw made the most of the last over of the innings bowled by Bas de Leede by smacking him for back-to-back sixes off the last two balls. His first six brought the crowd to the edge of their seats as he clobbered a high full toss for a maximum over deep point. The delivery was signalled a no ball being above waist height hence Santer got a free hit on the next ball.
