ICC WC: Kiwis cream butter-fingered Afghanistan

TIL Desk Sports/ New Zealand brought Afghanistan back down to earth with a 149-run victory on Wednesday to stretch their winning streak in the 50-overs World Cup.

Three days after stunning defending champions England, the plucky Afghans briefly kindled hopes of another upset when New Zealand’s top order suffered a mini-collapse.

The 2019 runners-up, however, went on to post 288-6 after skipper Tom Latham (68) and Glenn Phillips (71) smashed rapid half-centuries.
