00:00Very good game. We came here to obviously put the complete performance together and
00:04Yeah, nice to take off the first
00:07Focus and now we move our focus and a new game in 10 minutes on
00:11I wouldn't say I'm coming off beating every time but
00:15Yeah, I think experience
00:17Firstly, I've played a little bit of cricket around the world
00:20But the key things for any ballers to try be aggressive to try take wickets. This is a new format for me. So
00:27The significance of dot balls is a
00:29Big factor in this game. So if you do get hit for a boundary
00:33It's so important to come back hard for the next ball and try ball or dot ball or get a wicket
00:37So it's been a good learning curve. Yeah
00:40again, New Zealand has been always punching about the
00:44normal expectations of most of the times and what is it that special thing that the
00:50Blackcaps have so that you always suppress the opposite opposition whenever you get onto the field
00:57Most of the times at least about New Zealand cricket knows that cricket. Yeah. Hey, I think
01:01New Zealand is a team that works together. They they never give up. They're well planned and
01:07They just try to put their best foot forward. So it's been enjoyable to have some success with New Zealand
01:12It's hard to nominate one player
01:14But a special wicket for me has always been my first test wicket and that was Michael Hussey many years ago
01:19So I've always cherished that wicket not getting without Koli that personal battle you you always seem to be winning
01:25So, how do you view that battle between them you and Koli?
01:30How you got them that thing most of the times a lot of times more more than any other baller
01:35I think so. What is your thought process when you go into the battle?
01:40I think it's a very exciting challenge to play against, you know, some of the best players in the world
01:46As a young baller growing up
01:47It was always an ambition and a goal to to try test myself against the best batters in the world
01:52So I've been very lucky to have a few occasions to play these guys. So yeah
01:57Rajandra Vingra is making a big news here this year in the World Cup
02:01Do you think you should come and play the IPL or what is your view on that?
02:05I think he's a phenomenal talent. He's a young player
02:10He's got the world at his feet and I know a lot of players in the side are very proud of the way he's
02:16you know developed his game, especially over the the World Cup period and
02:20He's got an exciting future ahead of him. So I think it's great for the game
02:25It's a great man to have in the New Zealand team and he's got a bright future ahead of him
