Despite losing the test against Sri Lanka, captain Tim Southee is happy with the performance of William O’Rourke and Rachin Ravindra
Host Sri Lanka defeated New Zealand by 63 runs in the first Test match. Tim Southee (Image Credit- Twitter X) New Zealand is currently on a tour of Sri Lanka for a two-match Test series. The first match of this Test series between the two teams was played at the Galle International Cricket Stadium. Let us tell you that New Zealand’s performance on this ground was not very good. The Kiwi team had to face five defeats here and a defeat by an innings and 10 wickets in one match. Something similar was seen once again when host Sri Lanka defeated New Zealand by 63 runs in the first Test match on this ground. However, even after this defeat, the performance of two players from the New Zealand cricket team was worth noting. One was bowler William O’Rourke and the other was young all-rounder Rachin Ravindra. William O’Rourke impressed in the Galle Test match by taking five wickets in the first innings and three wickets in the second innings, while Rachin held one end by scoring 92 runs in the second innings. Now, after the match is over, captain Tim Southee has given a big statement. Tim Southee gave a big statement After the first test match between Sri Lanka and New Zealand ended in Galle, Tim Southee said- William O’Rourke has had a very short test career so far, and he has certainly announced it himself. We saw in New Zealand how dangerous he can be. He has the skills to have a very good Test career. For him to come in his first Test on the subcontinent and perform so well by taking 8 wickets in the match is nothing short of extraordinary. He has a big responsibility on his shoulders and he can become a big player, so there is a lot to like about William O’Rourke. Saudi further said about Rachin- Rachin (Ravindra) kept us in the Test match chase. We knew it was going to be tough, as the pitch was turning a lot in the last few days. It was a brilliant innings by Rachin in those conditions.
