T20 WC: Santner, McConchie Heroics Lift New Zealand To 168/7 Against SL
Skipper Mitchell Santner: Skipper Mitchell Santner and Cole McConchie produced one of the greatest lower-order recoveries in Men’s T20 World Cup history to lift New Zealand to 168/7 in their 20 overs against Sri Lanka in their Super Eights clash at the R Premadasa Stadium on Wednesday.
The pair added 84 runs for the seventh wicket, the highest stand for that position in the tournament’s history, surpassing the 74-run partnership between Michael Hussey and Steve Smith against Bangladesh at Bridgetown in 2010. Their effort – Santner making 47 and McConchie hitting 31 not out - came after New Zealand had slumped to 98/6 in 16 overs.
Santner and McConchie plundered 70 runs in the final four overs, punishing Sri Lanka’s bowlers for bowling a string of full tosses and loose deliveries at the death. McConchie’s clean hitting silenced the Colombo crowd, while Santner provided crucial support with timely boundaries to take the Blackcaps to a competitive score.
