IND vs NZ, R Ashwin & Glenn Phillips (Photo Source: IND vs NZ, 3rd Test: In the second innings of the third Test against India, the New Zealand team seems to be falling apart like a pack of cards. The team lost the first wicket in the form of captain Tom Latham on the score of just 2 runs. After this, the performance of Devon Conway (22), Rachin Ravindra (4), and Daryl Mitchell (21) was also disappointing. Ravichandran Ashwin could not take a single wicket in the first innings of Mumbai Test. In the second innings, he first tightened the noose on Rachin Ravindra and then gave a big success to the team by clean bowling Glenn Phillips. This is how Glenn Phillips was clean bowled by Ashwin. The 33rd over of New Zealand’s second innings was bowled by R Ashwin. Glenn Phillips hit two brilliant sixes on the first and third balls of the over. No run came on the fourth ball and then Ashwin made a comeback and clean bowled Phillips. Ashwin bowled the carrom ball, Phillips played on the wrong line and then the ball hit the stumps. Glenn Phillips played an inning of 26 runs in 14 balls with the help of one four and 3 sixes and New Zealand got the sixth blow on the score of 131.

‘I don’t want them to select me if I play as a keeper’, Glenn Phillips’ blunt reply to New Zealand Cricket Board
Glenn Phillips is one of the best fielders in the world Glenn Phillips. (Photo Source: Twitter) New Zealand cricket team’s star batsman Glenn Phillips has recently talked about his transformation and explained how he has transformed from a wicketkeeper to one of the best fielders in the world. So, the 27-year-old player has given a big statement about this and said that he does not like wicketkeeping at all and when he suffered a back injury, he started speaking more openly about this. Also, Phillips has clearly told the New Zealand Cricket Board that if they want to select him in the team as a wicketkeeper, then they should not select him. It is worth noting that since his debut in 2017, Phillips has been selected in the team as an all-rounder only once, while every time he gets a place in the Kiwi team as a wicketkeeper. Glenn Phillips made a big statement Let us tell you that in a recent interview with Wisden, Glenn Phillips said- I did not like wicketkeeping for a long time before the back injury, but after this injury I got an excuse not to do it. It started with telling New Zealand Cricket that I do not want them to select me if I play as a wicketkeeper. Phillips further said- I got into the career boat with my skills and thankfully it worked out for me. I hate doing something with passion, but I will do the work that I enjoy. On the other hand, this change has been seen in Phillips’ game as well. As a wicketkeeper, his average in T20 format is 18.4 and strike rate is 117.94. Whereas when he plays with the team as an all-rounder, his average is 34.28 and strike rate is 143.67.
