T20 WC: ‘Nice To Start With A Few Runs Under Your Belt,’ Says Seifert After Match-winning 65 Against Afghanistan
T20 World Cup: Tim Seifert’s calm yet aggressive knock set the tone as New Zealand opened their T20 World Cup campaign with a confident five-wicket win over Afghanistan on Sunday, chasing down 183 with 15 balls to spare, and the 31-year-old said that he felt good to have gotten a few runs under his belt at the start of the tournament amid ‘tough conditions’ at the MA Chidambaram Stadium.
Named Player of the Match for his decisive 65 off 42 balls, Seifert played a pivotal role in steadying New Zealand after an early wobble.
“Personally, it's always nice to start the tournament with a few runs under your belt. But the main thing is we got the win. Tough conditions as well out there. Lost a couple of early wickets, so it's nice to get the job done,” he said during the post-match presentation, reflecting on his innings and the importance of the result.
