Champions Trophy: It’s Better For NZ Batters If Ball Doesn’t Spin Much, Says Santner Ahead Of Proteas Clash
ICC Champions Trophy: After the New Zealand batters collapsed against a potent Indian spin attack in their previous match, skipper Mitchell Santner has acknowledged the difficulties his side faced in the clash. But he still believes the conditions at the Gaddafi Stadium for their clash with South Africa will not assist spinners as the slower track in Dubai did.
The second semifinal of the 2025 Champions Trophy will be an interesting clash, with both teams eyeing their first victory in a limited-overs ICC tournament. The Proteas enter the game with two wins and one no result, whereas New Zealand finished as the runner-up in Group A with convincing victories against Pakistan and Bangladesh.
With quality spinners like Keshav Maharaj and Tabraiz Shamsi awaiting the Kiwi batters, Santner addressed the challenge that awaits his side.
