New Zealand Reviews
New Zealand was just outstanding in each and every department of the game in the first match against Australia. They were asked to bat first after losing the toss. The way how their batting order performed in that match was just outstanding. They scored a total of 200 runs in 20 overs. Almost all batters from their side put some runs on the board. Devon Conway proved the most successful and highest run-scorer from their side who remained not out after scoring 92 runs on 58 balls with the help of seven boundaries and two huge sixes. Finn Allen was the other batter with some good runs to his name. He scored 42 runs on just 16 balls and smashed five boundaries and three huge sixes during his inning.
James Neesham scored 26 runs while the skipper, Kane Williamson scored 23 runs. The bowling unit of New Zealand also performed well and destroyed the batting order of Australia. They defended the target of 201 runs and send the full team of Australia back to the pavilion in 111 runs in 17.1 overs. Tim Southee was the most successful bowler from their side who picked three wickets in 2.1 overs against just six runs. Mitchell Santner also performed well and picked up three wickets in four overs while he was charged with 31 runs. Trent Boult was the other bowler who performed well and picked two wickets in four overs while he was charged with 24 runs. Lockie Ferguson and Ish Sodhi picked one wicket each.
Afghanistan Reviews
Afghanistan has a strong batting order on their side but they were not good in the first match against Sri Lanka. They have some hart hitter batters like Hazratullah Zazai, Gurbaz, Ibrahim Zadran, Mohammad Nabi, and Najibullah but no batter from their side could manage to put a big total on the board. Ibrahim Zadran was the highest run-scorer from their side scoring 32 runs on the same balls with the help of three boundaries and one huge six. Usman Ghani scored 30 runs while Najibullah could manage to score 13 runs. Gurbaz had just ten runs to his name. The middle and lower batting order of Afghanistan almost collapsed in the previous match.
Afghanistan is rich in the bowling department. They have some world-class bowlers like Rashid Khan, Mohammad Nabi, Mujeeb, and Fazalhaq Farooqi but no bowler could give the best performance. Rashid Khan proved the most economical bowler from their side picking one wicket in four overs against just 24 runs. Fazalhaq Farooqi, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Mohammad Nabi, and Fareed Ahmad Malik also picked one wicket each. Afghanistan is overall a strong and experienced team and has a good batting and bowling unit. They have to focus on taking early wickets and they can put some pressure on the opposition.

Pitch Report and Conditions
The 21st match of World Cup T20 2022 is going to be held at Melbourne Cricket Ground, Melbourne. We had observed in the previous matches played here that the pitch here at this venue is good for batting. The track is slower than the others we have seen and helps the spinners quite a bit. We are hoping that the surface is bound to get slower and be a bit more difficult for batting in this match. A score of 190 is going to be tough to chase.
