In the fourth ODI match against <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/ind-vs-nz-4th-odi-being-bundled-in-conditions-closest-to-world-cup-is-big-concern-gautam-gambhir-23659831" rel="nofollow">Team India</a>, New Zealand registered a dominant victory by 244 runs at the Bay Oval in Tauranga.
Speaking about the victory, <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/ind-vs-nz-4th-odi-new-zealand-matt-henry-reflects-on-his-six-wicket-haul-against-team-india-23659775" rel="nofollow">New Zealand</a>'s opening batsman Will Young said that it was one of the hosts' most comprehensive wins.
"It was one of our most comprehensive victories and one of the more comprehensive defeats from the Indian side. You don't ever go out chasing those sorts of things; it's just something that's nice to reflect on afterwards," he said after the match.
During the match, Young smashed 125 runs off 108 deliveries, including 14 boundaries and four maximums. The 33-year-old cricketer feels that his team read the pitch's conditions well and posted a competitive total.
"Our whole style of cricket in the one-day format is built around adapting to what's in front of you. I managed to do that at the start of our innings. Obviously, we had a bit of luck go our way as well, but we built a nice platform," he said.
"We identified that the wicket was slightly better than the first two ODIs in Auckland and Wellington and posted what we thought was a competitive total," added Young.
Currently, the "Men in Blue" are leading the series 2-1. The visitors will look to bounce back from the humiliating defeat and secure a win in the fifth match to clinch the series. On the other hand, the hosts would look to play for pride, as a win in the fifth match would help them end the series in a tie. It will be interesting to see if the "Black Caps" manage to end the series on a positive note.
