Josh Hazlewood gave a big statement
Let us tell you that after the end of the second day’s play of the first Test match between New Zealand vs Australia, Hazlewood told the journalists – We were basically thinking about the match only. Given the position we were in in the match, Greeny (Cameron Green) was thinking of scoring four or five runs per over. And could target any one bowler.
Hazlewood further said- During the match, these are the small things that you constantly talk about. Suddenly we get a partnership of 50 runs and then 100 runs, after that we are close to 400 runs. When you bat, things just move. It’s good to bat with Greenie.
On the other hand, if we tell you the condition of this match, at the end of the second day of the match, Australia has scored 13 runs at the loss of 2 wickets after 8 overs in the second innings. So in response to Australia’s first innings score of 383 runs, New Zealand’s first innings was reduced to just 179 runs.
