New Zealand captain does not blame pitch for World Cup defeatPraises ‘ultimate competitor’ Daryl Mitchell after century
Kane Williamson described India’s one-day international World Cup juggernaut as the best team in the world after a thrilling semi-final in Mumbai, where New Zealand pressed hard but ultimately fell well short of India’s 397 batting first. Victory made it 10 wins in succession for India before the final on Sunday.
“They’re the best team in the world and they’re all playing their best cricket, so that’s tough,” Williamson said. “I think we see in cricket, often it’s surrounded with failure and how you deal with it. The way they’ve played throughout this tournament has been incredible.”
