PAK vs NZ, T20 World Cup 2022 1st Semifinal: Kane Williamson wants to lead from 2019 World Cup final
New Zealand and Kane Williamson came close to becoming the 50-over world champions in the 2019 ICC World Cup final. The New Zealand skipper wants to learn from that match ahead of his team's T20 World Cup 2022 semifinal against Pakistan. Here's what Kane Williamson had to say about the 2019 experience...
"I suppose when you turn up everybody wants to win, that's kind of a big part of the idea, I guess, of tournament sport. If you can find yourself in positions where you can compete to get across the line, that's a really good thing. But we're going into a semifinal. There's four teams there that certainly have the ambition to go the way and it's certainly been the case in the other tournament. So it's exciting. They're all great teams. All playing really good cricket. And we're certainly focused on our challenge tomorrow. And it's a strong Pakistan."
IND vs ENG, T20 World Cup 2022 2nd Semifinal: SKY is the limit for Suryakumar Yadav, says Rohit Sharma
Rohit Sharma speaks up on Suryakumar Yadav: "He is a batter, who doesn't carry any baggage. He has a lot of suitcases, loves his shopping but doesn't carry a lot of baggage. He likes to bat in the same way whether is 10 for 2 or 100 for 2. As we say, 'Sky is the limit' for him."
PAK vs NZ, T20 World Cup 2022 1st Semifinal: Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan to open
Out-of-form Pakistan captain Babar Azam will continue to open the batting with Mohammad Rizwan. Here is what Pakistan batting coach and mentor Matthew Hayden said:Â
"Babar and Rizwan rightly are a number one combination. If I can take your minds way back to a different World Cup, that was the 2007 World Cup and Adam Gilchrist had a lean World Cup healed of that undefeated campaign for Australia. If you remember that last match against Sri Lanka, he went on to score an incredible hundred and realised his potential in that tournament and awakened the world once again to the fact that he was such a premium batsman in that format of the game. It's always nice to have two players that have felt the pressure, and we all feel the pressure at any given times in our career. No different for the number one combination, no different for the number four ranked T20 player in Babar. And don't be surprised whatsoever if you don't see some fireworks because very special players don't often stay down for long."
