VIDEO: Williamson Smashes 40 Off Just 11 Starc's Deliveries
Kane Williamson led New Zealand's batting with his 85 off 45 balls in the T20 World Cup final in Dubai on Sunday against Australia.
Although Williamson started slowly at the start of the innings but he became aggressive in the second half of the innings. He attacked Mitchell Starc in particular and smashed 40 runs in just 11 balls against Australia's pace spearhead.
Williamson hit 18 and 22 off the Starc's two overs. The left-arm pacer ended up conceding 60 runs in his four overs without picking any wicket.
Starc broke Brett Lee's record of conceding most runs in a T20 World Cup match for Australia. Lee had conceded 56 runs in his four overs back in 2009 against West Indies. He also overtook Lasith Malinga in conceding most runs in the T20 World Cup final. Malinga had conceded 56 runs in 2012 final.
