The world’s focus is currently on India and Australia, but at the same time, the Test match between England and New Zealand is also underway. This game also set many records. Former New Zealand captain Kane Williamson also set a new record. The record is also special as no New Zealand batsman has been able to achieve this feat before.
Kane Williamson completes five thousand runs at home
The Test series between New Zealand and England is ongoing in New Zealand. Kane Williamson has now completed over 5,000 trials in his native New Zealand. He was the first New Zealand batsman to do this. Kane has played 52 games for New Zealand so far and scored 5142 runs. His home average is 66.77. He has now scored 20 centuries at home and also has 21 half-centuries to his name.
A strong performance of 156 runs in an innings against England
Kane Williamson’s bat struggled in the first innings of this match against England. He was out after scoring 44 runs off 87 balls. But he hit his real mark in the second inning. He bowled 204 balls and scored 156 runs. The intensity of his innings can be seen from the fact that he hit 20 fours and one six. With this innings, New Zealand scored 453 runs. Now, it remains to be seen how this game plays out.
It will be very difficult for England to win this game
England had to score another 640 runs from here to win in the second innings. When the third day’s play came to an end, England had lost just two wickets and had scored just 18 runs. Team New Zealand is now in a very good position in the competition. But it’s hard to say whether England can win from here, but the task is huge. If England have to win from here, a massive miracle is going to have to happen. There are two days left in the game. However, the win or loss will not have any impact on the fitness of the two teams in the World Test as they are already out of contention for the final.
