Glenn Phillips got out with 71 runs from 80 balls. Will Young 54 runs from 64 balls.  If Afghanistan team performs well in batting today, maybe Afghanistan team can win. team will win today's match depending on Afghanistan team's batting performance.

Afghanistan team is under a lot of pressure at the moment with the loss of 3 wickets in a row. Because New Zealand team bowling performance is very good but in terms of batting performance, Afghanistan team is very weak at present. Afghanistan team's batting patience is very low because if they can stay on the field for a long time, Afghanistan team has a chance to win today. New Zealand team scored only 288 runs which is a huge score for Afghanistan team. If the wickets continue to lose like this, Afghanistan team will surely suffer a lot of losses for the time being. Now standing at the current crease, if the duo of Rahmat Shah and AzmatUllah can survive, the Afghanistan team will be able to collect some runs.

Although Afghanistan lost their first wicket for thirty runs in New Zealand's innings, they were 4 for 110 after 20 overs. Relying on New Zealand's Glenn Phillips 71 and Latham 68, New Zealand ended up amassing 288, which turned out to be a challenging score for Afghanistan. Afghanistan didn't get off to a good start as three of Afghanistan's top order batsmen got out with few runs which could have affected Afghanistan's victory in today's match. In the current state of the game, it can be safely said that Afghanistan may not win today's match.

Batting at a target of 289 on this pitch, it was much more difficult to win. The pitch was not batting friendly. As we have seen in New Zealand's innings, the batsmen have had a lot of trouble scoring runs. New Zealand's top order collapsed quite quickly. Still New Zealand managed to provide a very good target. Had the target been less than 250 I would have thought an Afghanistan win was a possibility. But considering the pitch, a target of 289 runs is enough to win if the batsmen can bowl under control. New Zealand's bowlers' performance today was very controlled. Afghanistan lost their sixth wicket by 125 runs. Today, New Zealand will win the match by a big margin.

Afghanistan have lost six wickets and managed to score only 125 runs in 30 overs. I had an idea from the beginning of today's match that today's match is going to be one-sided because New Zealand team is one of the strong team in this ICC World Cup. In that case though Afghanistan tried to make a good comeback by defeating England but still I would say Afghanistan team is much weaker than New Zealand team. And that is well understood in today's match. Afghanistan batsmen could not survive against the New Zealand bowlers.

However Afghanistan's required run rate is currently above 8 and their current run rate is only around 4. I don't think the lower order batsmen of the Afghanistan team will be able to cope with these powerful bowlers of New Zealand. Although I expected New Zealand to score 300 today. Anyway Today New Zealand's will be the winner it confirm as my perspective.

New Zealand excellent recovery from 110 loss of 4 wickets by Latham and Phillips scored 71 runs and the New Zealand reached a big total of 288. The Afghan fielders should be very disappointed performance especially fielders they drops plenty of catches. But After losing 4 quick wickets New Zealand amazing batting performances Will Young, Glenn Phillips, and skipper Tom Latham scored fifties have contributed to New Zealand posting a decent total 288 runs in loss of 6 wickets in 50 Overs on the board against Afghanistan.

Naveen ul Haq picked 2 important wickets by giving 48 runs in 8 over and Azmatullah Omarzai picked up two wickets, but their bowling figures were on the expensive side for the team. The Current score of Afghanistan is 121 runs in loss of 5 wickets in 30 Overs. Afghanistan Needs 169 runs in 20 overs to win this match but the chance of Afghanistan winning is very low beacuse they lose 5 nearly wickets. New Zealand is on top for his amazing bowling performance they will high chances of winning and remian unbeaten in world cup.

It seems like Afghanistan will not win this match as not the target is getting too much stiff and they have already lost 6 wickets for only 126 runs.
Afghanistan had their chance in the match but they gave too many runs in the last 10 overs of the New Zealand innings. Remember that New Zealand scored over 100 runs in their last 10 overs. Had Afghanistan managed to control that run rate in these overs and give only 50 to 60 runs, the target would have been less, meaning less pressure on their batting when they came out to chase.

New Zealand won the game by 149 runs. They outplayed Afghanistan in every department. Initially, Afghanistan put pressure on NZ by taking 3 back-to-back wickets, but Glenn Phillips and Tom Latham batted brilliantly for their half-centuries and put a 144-run stand; as a result, NZ set a target of 289 runs. Afghanistan's fielding was miserable, and they dropped many catches at crucial points.
In response, Afghanistan's batting lineup tumbled and were all out on 139 in 34.4 overs. Lockie Ferguson and Mitchell Santner took 3 wickets each to seal the victory for NZ.

Cricket is a very self-sufficient game because you cannot select the perfect team by batting only and even if you announce the squad with just the bowlers. It is not only good batting but also great performance in fielding.  
Afghanistan lost today's match by a big margin due to poor fielding performance of Afghanistan in today's match. After beating a strong team like England by 69 runs in the previous match, it was a surprise for the Afghanistan team to be bowled out for just 139 runs against New Zealand.

After a good win against England I thought the team would be able to maintain consistency. The team bowled very well in the first 20 overs against New Zealand. After that gradually the performance of their bowlers started to deteriorate. And in the end the New Zealand batsmen scored 288 runs. I have seen quite good fielding from the Afghanistan players in the previous matches. But in today's match their fielding was very bad.
However, looking at Afghanistan's matches, it is easy to see that the team is badly dependent on their top order. If the top order does not play well, the team does not have the ability to collect 200 runs. And today the two openers did not get off to a good start, neither of the middle order batsmen could bat responsibly. The team lost by a huge margin of 149 runs.

New Zealand won the match by defeating the Afghan team by 149 runs. The match was not as good as I thought it may be the match where there will be a tough match but it was very disappointing. The target was not high that impossible to chase but they even didn't cross the 200. The bowling and mostly the fielding were awful they missed a lot of catches and another four and sixes as well which were very easy when they came to the batting, at the beginning their batsman went well but suddenly they dropped their wickets. If the Afghanistan team bat first then I think the chances of winning will be maximum and they got pressure which also led to a wicket drop. however, the Afghan team still needs more practice, as this is a weaker team New Zealand is stronger compared to them and somehow they played well.

The New Zealand team won the match with a wonderful run rate, and New Zealand came on the number. 1st position in the point table in this World Cup, and the Afghanistan team again went to the last position in the point table.

New Zealand also had some poor batting earlier today, which was a good opportunity for Afghanistan but they were not able to take advantage of this great opportunity. I think both team's batting was poor but New Zealand crossed 280 at least but Afghanistan wasn’t able to make 150 scores. The whole team Afghanistan lost their wicket under 140 scores. The New Zealand team played 4 matches and they won it all but the heartful thing is that Kane Williamson was injured and we don’t see him in today’s match.

The New Zealand team won the match with a wonderful run rate, and New Zealand came on the number. 1st position in the point table in this World Cup, and the Afghanistan team again went to the last position in the point table.

Expected New Zealand to defeat Afghanistan pretty easily which is exactly what happened because upsets happen rarely. They pretty much secured one of the semifinal spots thanks to 4/4 wins with a great NRR.

Looks like New Zealand/India will end up lifting the cup this time around though the Kiwis chances are higher in comparison.

After winning the toss, Afghanistan opted to bowl that was good decision but their bowlers tried hard but could not stop the run rate. Due to which New Zealand reach their desired goal. Afghanistan bowlers performed very well in the last match they got almost all wickets there but the result of today's match is also different. On the one hand they have not bowled well and on the other hand they have failed to chase. Rashid Khan Mohammad Nabi None could do well according to their merits. Due to which Afghanistan saw another defeat.

Afghanistan bowlers bowled well and they didn't give a chance to New Zealand to go above 300 runs but Afghanistan batsman didn't play well and they got out on 139 runs which is showing that Afghanistan needs more attention on the batting line. This is showing that Afghanistan will be out from ICC World Cup.

The decision to field first was correct. And the Afghanistan bowlers got off to a good start. New Zealand lost 4 of their key batsmen for 110 runs. Philips and Latham then put together an excellent partnership of 146 runs. These two batsmen played very well. At the same time, Afghanistan's bowling and fielding were very poor. Even so, the match was likely to be competitive. But the bowlers as well as the batsmen played very badly. 6 batsmen of the team could not collect two digit runs. However, Afghanistan suffered a humiliating defeat against New Zealand after a resounding win against England. This team has the potential to do well, but the players' performances have been erratic.

I didn't understand that Afghanistan team would bat so badly. I thought Afghanistan team might perform well in batting and win the match but they lost because of their poor performance. New Zealand team was very strong in bowling line which is why today's match was so easy.  New Zealand team won.

New Zealand won their 4th game in this World Cup as back-to-back victories for the New Zealand Team, they are playing well in the bowling or the batting. Their batting side is strong enough to give a backup to the bowlers. They played outclass cricket today by bowling out the Team Afghanistan on 139. As this was a batting pitch some people have expected from Afghanistan that they will provide their best as that was in the previous match against England but today Afghanistan Team failed to provide their best cricket game.

Glen Phillips made 71 runs out of 80 balls, Tom Latham made 68 runs out of 74 balls and Will Young made 54 runs out of 64 deliveries from the side of New Zealand. They all played well, as they are good at batting we have seen some positive cricket from them today as we have seen some hitting sixes towards the boundary from the bat of Glen Phillips and Will Young, they both played well.

In my opinion, choosing bowl first was not nice decision of Afghanistan team because they knew that why they lose games from other teams. Due to poor batting performance of in past matches, they lose their past three matches. Their bowling performance good as compared to batting. In this match, if they had batted first without any pressure of target then their chances would have been increased. On other hand, New Zealand is not a weaker team, they won all previous matches and now they are in top rank in statistics. In this match, Devon Conway performance not outstanding. He just scored 20 runs in 18 balls and hitted three 4s. Anyways, Congratulations New Zealand once again to secure their victory and maintain your place in points table

I didn't understand that Afghanistan team would bat so badly. I thought Afghanistan team might perform well in batting and win the match but they lost because of their poor performance. New Zealand team was very strong in bowling line which is why today's match was so easy.  New Zealand team won.

It has to be happened.  We have seen from the beginning that Afghanistan's tour of the ICC World Cup 2023 is not very good, but in the previous match against England, they showed a very good performance.  Although the England team was one of the stronger teams, I still think that England are out of form in this World Cup.
And after winning against England, everyone might have thought that Afghanistan would win against New Zealand, but that was not possible and the match remained one-sided. Afghanistan's batting line-up proved to be very weak today and their poor performance shows that New Zealand bowlers did not have face any difficulty to all out them. New Zealand's batting and bowling performance were both good today but I would say the credit for today's win goes to the bowlers especially Lockie Ferguson, Mitchell Santner, Trent Boult, the three of them had a great performance to take Afghanistan face loss. A look at the run warm chart below shows how Afghanistan's performance was today.

However, the match of India vs Bangladesh is going to be held tomorrow. Currently, many Indian cricketers feel that there is more competition than Pakistan. Even then I will say that if the current performance of Bangladesh is going on then they will definitely lose this match with India.
