Toss
The Afghan’s Skipper together with Kiwis’ skipper are down to the middle for the toss. Hashmatullah Shahidi after winning the toss decides to bowl first against the NZ XI.Tom Latham says he wasn’t sure whether to bat first or go after the chase.
AFG keep the same winning combination while NZ bring back Will Young in their playing 11 for injured Kane Williamson.
The Kiwi openers: Will Young and the 2nd highest scorer of the ICC CWC23 DJ Conwey, are opening the innings for NZ and have got a very good chance to surpass India in the ICC CWC 2023 point’s Table. Whereas, Mujeeb ur Rehman and Fazal Haq Farooqi get the ball in hand for the first power play to restrict the man in Black under the par score as wishes the AFG captain at the toss of the 16th match of ICC MEN’s ODI CWC 2023.
Mujeeb and Farooqi provide an excellent start to AFG. They both bowl very tight line and length. Mujeeb strikes early in the contest as Dj Conwey is trapped up front. Joel Wilson thinks there’s an inside edge that AFG captain reviews and the DRS lets the cat out of the bag. Conway gone for 20 off 18 and NZ are 30 for 1 in 6.3.
