T20 WC: Not a six-hitting contest, says WI coach Reifer ahead of SA clash

West Indies batting coach Floyd Reifer on Wednesday brushed aside suggestions of a looming six-hitting shootout against South Africa, asserting that his side's focus remains on maximising scoring opportunities rather than merely clearing the ropes in their crucial T20 World Cup clash here. With both unbeaten teams packed with some tremendous power-hitters, there is an expectation of a high-scoring contest but Reifer said the Caribbean side's approach goes beyond boundary-hitting. "Both teams have the ability to hit sixes and once the wicket is good, you expect good batting performances from both sides. For us, it's about scoring off as many deliveries as possible. Yes, we hit sixes and fours, but the main thing is to score as many balls as possible," Reifer said during the pre-match press conference. The former West Indies captain made it clear that his team does not feel the need to prove a point despite entering the tournament amid modest expectations. "There's no point to prove

Got to take him down: Miller talks about Proteas plan that nullified Varun

All it needed was a still mind, limited movement and strong intent, said South African big-hitter David Miller as he opened up about how his team successfully nullified Indian mystery spinner Varun Chakravarthy in their T20 World Cup Super Eight clash here. South Africa defeated the defending champions by 76 runs here on Sunday after posting a formidable 187/7. The in-form Chakravarthy was expected to be India's trump card but on a wicket that didn't offer much assistance, he went for 47 runs in his four overs with both Miller (63 off 35 balls) and Dewald Brevis (45 off 29 balls) taking him to cleaners. "I think it's just about really making sure that we were on it in terms of if he bowls a bad ball we got to put it away - so a little bit more intent and it wasn't spinning too much tonight, so you can kind of trust the line," Miller told reporters after the match. "And once we felt that, then we felt, OK, we've got to take him down, because he is a threat to every team that he does

T20 WC Preview: South Africa, New Zealand lock horns for group dominance

With Super 8s qualification virtually assured, unbeaten New Zealand and South Africa will clash here on Saturday in what is shaping up as a straight fight for the top spot in their T20 World Cup group. Both teams have won their opening two matches, but through contrasting paths, setting up a contest that could determine not just Group D supremacy but also momentum heading into the Super 8s. New Zealand have looked clinical. After restricting Afghanistan to 182/6, they chased down the target in 17.5 overs, powered by Tim Seifert's 65 and brisk contributions from Glenn Phillips (42), Mark Chapman (28) and Daryl Mitchell (25 not out). Earlier, Seifert and Finn Allen had dismantled UAE in a 10-wicket win, overhauling 174 in just 15.2 overs. South Africa, meanwhile, have combined firepower with composure under pressure. They amassed 213/4 against Canada with skipper Aiden Markram striking 59 off 32, and David Miller (39 not out) and Tristan Stubbs (34 not out) finishing strongly befor
