CWC-2019: New Zealand’s batsman breaks Rohit Sharma’s big record

New Zealand captain Ken Williamson tricked the South African team by 4 wickets in a key draw in the World Cup by captaining the innings. In the match played on Wednesday, the New Zealand team won the toss and decided to bowl first.

Batting first, the South African team scored 241 runs losing 6 wickets in the revised 49 overs. In response, New Zealand’s team, with the help of a modest inning of 106 runs from Williamson, took 3 balls to the match after the remainder.

In this match, Williamson demolished the record of Team India’s Hitman Rohit Sharma. Williamson has become the first player to complete 1,000 runs in just 17 innings in England. Before that, this record was Rohit Sharma’s name, which touched 1000 runs in 18 innings.

The first three of these have crossed the milestone in the 2019 World Cup.

In the match played on Wednesday, New Zealand beat South Africa by 4 wickets in the ICC World Cup-2011 match played at Edgbaston ground on the partnership between captain Kane Williamson (103 not out) and all-rounder Colin de Grandhaum (60). Green has continued its winning sequence.

Due to rain, the match started with delay and this was the reason 49 overs per innings were played. South Africa scored 241 runs for the loss of 6 wickets in 49 overs on the basis of the fierce fifties of Rasie Dar Dussen and Hashim Amla.

South African bowlers, however, created trouble for the Kiwi team but bad fielding and Williamson-Colin duo helped New Zealand to lose 6 wickets in 48.3 overs. Lungi Nagadi brought D Glandohom out in the 48th over to thrill in the match, but in the last over, Williamson completed his century with sixes and then won the team with a run.
