T20 WC: All Stats From New Zealand’s Eight-wicket Win Over Canada In Group D
MA Chidambaram Stadium: New Zealand secured a dominant eight-wicket victory over Canada at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, booking their place in the Super 8s of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup.
Chasing 174, the Black Caps recovered from an early 30/2 slump to complete the target in just 15.1 overs, with Glenn Phillips smashing 76 off 36 balls* and Rachin Ravindra contributing 59* in a match-winning partnership. Phillips’ 22-ball fifty, New Zealand’s fastest in T20 World Cups, featured towering sixes and a switch-hit maximum, while Ravindra balanced aggression with composure to anchor the innings.
Earlier, Canada posted 173/4, led by a sensational 110 from 19-year-old Yuvraj Samra, the first T20 World Cup century by a batter from an Associate nation.
