World Cup 2023: Kiwis two wins away from making semifinal feels Phillips

An injury-ravaged New Zealand have slumped to their third successive defeat in the World Cup but allrounder Glenn Phillips believes they're two wins away from clinching a semifinal berth. New Zealand, who are currently on eight points, suffered a massive 190-run loss against South Africa here on Wednesday. "It's just two wins away, and that hopefully puts us in third or fourth place, potentially even second," Phillips, who scored a 50-ball 60, said during the post-match press conference. "So, I think if we can just keep sticking to our basics, what we do best on the field, everything will be all right." The Black Caps next face Pakistan (November 4) and Sri Lanka (November 9) in their remaining two matches. Pakistan kept the door to the semifinal slightly ajar following a seven-wicket win over Bangladesh the other day. "We try to remain level-headed throughout everything, not ride the highs too high and the lows too low. So, I think for us, it's go about our business as we've don

World Cup 2023: New Zealand call in Jamieson as cover for injured Henry

Ravaged by a spate of injuries, New Zealand on Thursday included towering fast bowler Kyle Jamieson in their World Cup squad with a cloud of doubt hovering over pacer Matt Henry's availability for a key clash against Pakistan. The 28-year-old six feet eight inches tall pacer will arrive in Bengaluru late on Thursday ahead of Saturday's game against Pakistan. New Zealand have been left in a tricky situation towards the business end of the tournament with as many as five of their players, including two pacers, battling injuries. While regular skipper Kane Williamson (thumb), Lockie Ferguson (achilles) and Mark Chapman (calf) were already nursing injuries, Henry and James Neesham joined the list on Wednesday with the former hurting his hamstring. With Henry awaiting scan results on his right hamstring, New Zealand were forced to fly in Jamieson, who was previously with the squad as cover for Tim Southee. "The severity of Matt's injury, combined with a short turnaround to Pakistan, me

World Cup 2023: Latham banks world-class bowling attack against in-form SA

Stand-in New Zealand skipper Tom Latham on Tuesday called on his world-class bowlers to be proactive and understand the match-ups ahead of their crucial World Cup clash against a rampaging South Africa here. It will be a battle between two formidable batting units when South Africa and New Zealand, who are currently at the second and third spots respectively, face off at the MCA stadium here on Wednesday. "Yeah, I think it's just recognising situations as best you can and trying to be proactive as much as we can as well from a bowling point of view and I guess from a field placement point of view as well," Latham said during the pre-match press conference. "Like every team we do our scouting, trying to find weaknesses from a batting point of view from South Africa, they're a team that's running pretty hot at the moment. "They've got some guys in form from a batting point of view. So again, it's going to be another great challenge. And we have come to a different venue and we've got
