00:03Match 14 is a group C encounter and we are back at the top of South America, Georgetown, Guyana at
00:12the National Stadium. It's a city steeped in history, steeped in great cricketing history as well and for New Zealand
00:21who opened their account tonight and Afghanistan this is a crucial, crucial match.
00:27And I don't think there's any real favourite here because Afghanistan are regarded now past the outside edge and carry
00:36will be interesting as well. Swing there and it's in the air for quite some time it just gets away
00:43from Santner who's at mid wicket. Glorious, absolutely magnificent sign of a good pitch and sign of a good player.
00:54That's exactly what you were saying KT Martin likes to go legs.
01:00Just hitting a little bit leg side you would assume there was a little bit of interest from Henry in
01:07behind.
01:10Oh, inside edge past the diving Conway. Fortune favour is Ibrahim on this occasion.
01:20Much more measured, much more in control and so easy for Ibrahim. This is a really good start for Afghanistan.
01:30Oh, down is it? I think it's gone down. Is it off the glove of Ibrahim as well? An opportunity
01:38for Devin Conway.
01:39From the charge and they'll get down towards third man as well. This is a terrific over. Really expensive from
01:46Matt Henry. Can only grip the teeth.
01:51Just a little bit leg side again and that stayed down.
01:55Yes, you mentioned at the start of the show at the start of the march. Let's take some pace.
02:02A little bit leg side again. Just on the angle.
02:08I don't think that's gripped at all.
02:11Just a little tickle.
02:13Just a little tickle. And this will test the speed of the outfield. Trent Bolt will run it down.
02:18And get a couple.
02:21Oh!
02:23It's gone past Devin Conway. It has gone down to the fence.
02:28It is just a...
02:32In the air and down. Down, down. New Zealand have not started this contest at all well.
02:43That's a sneaky single.
02:44Oh!
02:47New Zealand have not started well.
02:50There's it!
02:53Big appeal!
02:55And Kamada Macina says, I like the look of that.
03:02They're reviewing it.
03:04Yeah.
03:06Oh, look at that. How crisp. Four runs.
03:11Well, they've started in fine fashion. A couple of elements.
03:14That's my...
03:16Catch me!
03:18Protection on the boundary. Hit really hard.
03:22Here, you're spot on. There's a rhythm about keeping, so the more you keep...
03:25...comes into the attack.
03:25Number half.
03:28It's done barrying straight.
03:32It's all happening out there.
03:37"'B 1993'
03:48that should be out another drop that was hard it would have been a lovely catch
03:57now then this is going big is it big enough it's in a gap is it it is it has
04:03gone the whole way
04:08he might have another chance here in fact i don't think he will there's some people about 30 yards
04:12behind him have a crack at this one that's beautifully struck well you can add another
04:18six to that samuel this is a massive over for afghanistan they have put the foot on the pedal
04:24and they're doing it in units and now ferguson goes over third man and they'll get two there
04:32new zealand scampering all over the place here but to no avail oh goodness me not only did that
04:40look good it sounded magnificent uh offspin another single someone the door comes back in i'm not sure
04:52whether it's a frown or it is on the ground and the full distance yes it is by about three
05:02meters
05:03that doesn't happen very often to trend bolt another six here
05:10another one stolen they're just on their game it's so evident looking out the window if you
05:16it them slowable weights on it and guber's will have a half century as a result
05:24just push the to you that's scampering so well
05:29straight up now can new zealand take a catch here or can they not it's just one of those nights
05:36it's agonizing
05:39dragged it down dragged it down and new zealand finally have something go their way
05:45they met henry as is often the case it's the
05:50that's up and over and into some space for four
05:55yeah lovely work again just get royalty in the box
06:01that's gone high and into the stands for six
06:06oh yes oh stand and deliver how good is that six
06:23good catch lucky ferguson underneath that under the lights and another wicket goes down
06:38good effort but it's gone for four
06:44that is an outstanding shot
06:48he's playing his shots all over the park and he's uh getting the result
06:53oh that's straight up in the air
06:56soft dismissal
07:00it's exactly what new zealand needed but uh against the runner play
07:05well
07:08he hits hard it doesn't go away at once but he gets the result for
07:18that is gone absolutely high and out of here
07:25put a stamp on it send it back
07:29goodbyes how good is he
07:37oh boy
07:43he's going to be
07:48falling

07:54well you got a chuckle skipper wasn't happy
08:03another good catch and uh it's all new zealand and that's a final over
08:16just a single
08:18a little bit of turn we saw a little bit of movement but
08:21to predominantly that opening partnership was simply superb
08:26from afghanistan's point of
08:35and that is superb from fuzzle huck continuing on from where he left in the last game
08:43williamson starts with a lovely cover drive there is protection at cover point and should get there
08:47it does
08:51yards and all
08:53down and over third over short thirds head for four
08:58streaky but a boundary for conway
09:04mariel straight to the man at cover just held in the surface a touch
09:09the wicket taking abilities of fuzzle huck for rookie just continue he is so so impressive
09:18mitchell's underway he advanced and that might race away for four
09:24rimson goes over backward point and we'll pick up a boundary
09:33oh beauty beauty little edge a little edge
09:38mitchell goes this time it's the one that goes away from the right hand

09:50russian khan is uh taking a lap of honor and why not look at him
09:56well you could have brought yourself on
10:02it's got that away and that would be for
10:05a release of pressure well it's the worst ball of bold so far
10:09it's the worst oh and could be a bit of a mix-up
10:21got him
