T20 WC: Wicket Looks Flat, But Spinners Still Have A Role To Play, Says NZ Skipper Santner Ahead Of Proteas Clash
T20 World Cup: Having travelled from Sri Lanka to Kolkata for the first semifinal clash with South Africa at the Eden Gardens, New Zealand skipper Mitchell Santner admitted that getting one more day of rest would have been ideal for his team. He, however, said his team has had a good practice session at the Eden and is ready for the semifinal clash.
New Zealand left Sri Lanka on Monday, a day after the semifinal line-up was finalised following India's win over the West Indies. New Zealand reached Kolkata on Tuesday and will be playing South Africa on Wednesday night. Moreover, they will be playing in conditions that will be different from those in Sri Lanka.
"Yeah, I guess the conditions are probably going to be a little bit different from where we've been in Colombo, but I guess this stage of the tournament, everyone's played a lot of cricket. Even some rest days in between are probably more beneficial. Guys had a good head out today. And I guess we watched the game the other night, which was a good indicator of what the surface will be like. And then, yeah, I think everyone will be ready to go for tomorrow," said Santner in the pre-match press conference.
