The black caps thrashed the host in their opening fixture of the word cup where a blistering know by Finn Allen blew away the Aussies bowlers and they couldn’t recover from that. This type of performance is hardly seen from them and if continue this form, they can reach the next stage easily. In the bowling the trio of Boult, Southee and Ferguson is getting enough purchase from the pitch and Santner who was pick of the bowler in the opening game provides a good balance.
Afghanistan has failed to win a match against the top nation, but they have been proving to be a stern competition.

The team need more from their batsmen and the pace bowlers on the Australian pitches if they have to reach the next stage.
