Gritty NZ post 241/8 against England in overcast conditions

By Shubham Shah July 14, 2019 • 19:48 PM View: 4030

July 14 (CRICKETNMORE) Winning the toss and batting first under overcast conditions on a stage as big as the final of the World Cup requires grit and that is exactly what New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson showed against England at the Lords on Sunday.

While it would be unfair to call the efforts of his batsmen outstanding, a total of 241/8 in the final can always be tricky for the opposition, especially when you have a bowling attack that is known to defend low totals well.
