However, Pathum Nissanka dropped a straightforward catch at long off and Phillips made them pay the price. Fans on Twitter hailed Glenn Phillips for his rearguard action and also for his unique celebration. Some also questioned the Sri Lankan fielding for allowing the Kiwi batters to get to 167/7.

Delaying Theekshana for the death ain’t working.

Glenn Phillips scored 62 27% of New Zealand s runs

Sri Lanka got off to an excellent start as Maheesh Theekshana cleaned up the dangerous Finn Allen with an absolute beauty. The anchors in Devon Conway and captain Kane Williamson also departed early and the Lankans were all over the Kiwis. Phillips walked out to bat and initially tried to settle himself at the crease. But the dropped catch from Nissanka seemed to give him a wake-up call to change gears and make his knock count. The swashbuckling right-hander first got valuable help from Daryl Mitchell and then from James Neesham and began to play some outrageous shots. He was so expressive for every ball that he mistimed and that showed exactly how motivated he was to take his team to a respectable total. NZ will be buoyed to have reached 167/7 and have got off to an incredible start with the ball, sending back four Sri Lankan batters at the time of writing for just eight runs. Phillips' knock could prove to be the difference between the two sides in the end. Check here for the of the T20 World Cup final 2022 Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!
