3 wickets in 4 overs and no runs…. This is not the score of any batting team, but the bowling performance of fast bowler Lockie Ferguson. He bowled all four maiden overs of his quota. The Trinidad pitch also supported this rare performance of Ferguson.
In the last match of Group C in the T20 World Cup, the pitch of Brian Lara Stadium gave a tough test to the batsmen. The difficulty of batting here can be gauged from the fact that 10 out of 16 batsmen who came to bat in the match could not reach double digits. Here in the 32 over match, 157 runs were scored at a run rate of 4.9 and 13 wickets fell.
On Monday, the match started late by an hour due to rain. New Zealand’s bowlers took full advantage of swing, bounce and turn on the damp pitch and bowled out Papua New Guinea for 78 runs. After that, opener Devon Conway (35 runs), captain Kane Williamson (18 runs) and Daryl Mitchell (19 runs) chased the target of 79 runs in 12.2 overs with patient innings and New Zealand won its last match in this T-20 World Cup. Won the match by 7 wickets. Analysis of PNG Vs NZ match in 5 points
