The New Zealand skipper said that they gathered some precious knowledge from their previous encounter with the same opponent. In the group stage of the T20 World Cup 2026, South Africa defeated New Zealand by miles. Tonight, it is the Blackcaps' turn to show what they can do.
"It was nice. I think we knew obviously how good South Africa is, and they’ve shown that throughout the tournament. So, to put on a performance like that in a crunch game is obviously pretty pleasing. I guess every time, you get shown up or you lose a game, you’re learning from it. I guess you learn when you win as well", Santner said.

"We obviously threw a little bit more spin at the start, which we didn’t do at Ahmedabad. But I think, if you can take wickets throughout, it’s obviously a challenge to keep going with the bat. There was always a plan for the first two overs (talking about the bowling tactics) and then it’s kind of free fall after that", the Kiwi skipper explained.
