Star player and England skipper Harry Brook shared his feelings after a dominating loss in the second ODI at Seddon Park, Hamilton against New Zealand. However, their rivals posted a dominating lead on them by 2-0.
New Zealand performed brilliantly in this series and already sealed the contest despite having one match left in the series. However, this victory is special for them as it’s their first bilateral ODI series win at home against England since 2008.
While batting, England faced difficulties scoring. However, some of them still gave some tough competition to New Zealand’s bowling line-up and added 175 runs on board. In reply their opponents played the match like a piece of cake and finished the game with 101 balls left. The star performers for them was Rachin Ravindra (54), Daryl Mitchell (54) and Mitchell Santner with 34 runs.
However, after a dominating loss England skipper Harry Brook said. ”Disappointing to say the least, but we’ve got to come back stronger and better for Sunday and hopefully get at least one win against these boys who are second in the world rankings. They’ve played well, they’ve played better than us in the first two games. The conditions are very similar to England. It does do a little bit with the new ball.”
“They’re nice wickets to bat on, but it’s just trying to get through that first period of your innings, the first 15-20 balls and then you’ve got to try and cash in from that. We want to get out there and entertain the world, entertain everybody watching here, and it’s just not come off in the last couple of games. It was only two-three games ago when we got 400 against South Africa, so it’s not far away, and hopefully we can have a good game on Saturday.†he added.
