New Zealand showed how cricket should be played

Just a ball! Yes, in just one word, the New Zealand team has explained how cricket should be played.

Just cricket, an example of why any game should be played, will be a moment in the semi-final match of tomorrow's T20 World Cup.

18th over in New Zealand's innings. Jimmy Neesham has frozen the fight by scoring 23 runs in the previous over made by Chris Jordan. But there is still a long way to go for New Zealand. Need 34 runs from 16 balls. Quite a difficult goal. In such situations, batsmen are usually desperate to take runs. In the 16th over made by Adil Rashid, Nisham was also very prepared.

The first ball of that over was a little shorter in length so Nisham tried to play a shot. The timing is messed up. Adil Rashid tried to stop the ball. In doing so, the English leg-spinner fell on the body of Daryl Mitchell, who was standing at the other end.

The New Zealand opener was returning to the crease when he saw Adil Rashid blocking the ball. But Adil Rashid could not stop the ball. The ball went out and then Nisham and Mitchell could safely change sides. But Mitchell did not.

Mitchell was in front of Adil Rashid when the ball went out. Mitchell did not change his mind thinking that he had stopped him from fielding.

Meanwhile, in the commentary room, former England captain Nasser Hussain said, "One run will take. What do you mean! Won't run? It's very good. This is New Zealand. That's really it. One run could have been taken easily, but the batsman on the other end said, "No, I was in front of Adil." That's all there is to New Zealand cricket. "

New Zealand then needed 34 runs off 16 balls. That means you need 2 runs per ball. Such a goal is not easy at all in a pressure match like the semi-final. Even after that, the Nisham-Mitchell pair picked up 14 runs from that over.

Although Nisham was out in the last ball, Mitchell won the match with one over in hand. Nisham, who was dismissed for 26 off 11 balls, and Mitchell, who was unbeaten on 72 off 48 balls, are the two heroes of New Zealand's victory.

You are the friend, you are the enemy ...!!???

Once upon a time, two people were walking together. At the same time he went down to 22 yards. Laughed at the victory of Australia, cried at the rate? No, Steve Waugh didn't know what Ricky Ponting's Australia cry was all about.

Aggressive cricket was the ‘trademark’ of that all-conquering Australian team. In it, Matthew Hayden and Justin Langer were ‘two blossoms on the same stalk’ — since the two were the opening pair.

The understanding has been done by you. Langer-Hayden has often chosen each other as best teammates. Hayden, standing by his friend's side, reminded him that Langer was "a legend." Hayden was insulted by his friend for playing more than one hundred Tests. But what will happen today?

Pakistan will face Australia in the World Twenty20 semifinals in Dubai. Langer is the head coach of the Australia team. Hayden, meanwhile, is Pakistan's batting consultant. After removing the signboard of friendship for so many days, the two of them have to give a professional test. That could be the name of the exam question paper — for now, you are the enemy...

The wrap of friendship should be kept aside for three hours. We need to bring out the traditional aggressive form of Australian cricket and inculcate it in the hearts of the students. Just as Matthew Hayden would reveal the secrets of Langer's tactics to Babar Azam, Langer may also explain to Aaron Finch what to do when Babur-Rizwans like Hayden leave the crease to hit the bowlers.

This is the advantage of being an opponent knowing each other kholanalache!

Today, Langer-Hayden will have to test the full application of that advantage. The Australian coach has already made that preparation. Langer had previously said, "Throughout the tournament, we've been texting. Of course, I did not reveal the inside story. It would be nice to see him, I haven't seen him for a long time. However, there are many such relationships in cricket. On Thursday we will set it aside for three hours. I will do my own thing, I hope it will be fun. '

Hayden also feels the fun. But from a slightly different point of view. Now Hayden has to fight with the mind. Hayden's encounter with Langer, who he paired within the opening over in 113 innings, is such a battle for Hayden, "From my point of view, the challenge is heartbreaking. Whatever happens in the next 24 hours is a challenge with the mind. '

Speaking at the press conference yesterday, Hayden also reminded the reality, "Justin Langer and my position as national team coach or batting coach are in the same place - no one can win a match. 11 people on the field won the team. We can only help from behind. "

Hayden-Langer is still the second-best (5655 runs) pair in the Test opening pair. Today, it is the turn of two friends to use every particle of this experience against each other.
