The video of this ball thrown by Phillips is rapidly going viral on social media. Let us tell you, this video is from the first match of the ongoing Test series between Sri Lanka and New Zealand at the Galle International Cricket Stadium. It can be easily seen in the video that in the 35th over, Philip bowled a ball to Sri Lankan captain Dhananjay de Silva, which he went to defend. Dhananjay is not able to read the ball properly and he tries to play it as if it was a normal spin but the ball bowled by Phillips takes so much turn that it hits the wicket directly. Phillips sent Dhananjay back to the pavilion on a total score of 11 runs. De Silva was also stunned after getting out.

New Zealand is at the bottom after losing the second consecutive match against Afghanistan and West Indies. The Williamson-led team still has two matches left against Papua New Guinea and Uganda. If the team has to reach the Super 8, then it has to win both these matches. But if Afghanistan defeats Papua New Guinea in the match to be held on June 14, then the New Zealand team will be officially out of the World Cup. If we look at the points table of Group C from the perspective of qualification for the Super 8 round, West Indies has reached the Super 8 by winning three matches. At the same time, one of the teams from Afghanistan, Uganda, Papua New Guinea and New Zealand will reach the Super 8 from this group. At present, Afghanistan is more likely to reach the Super 8, because the team has one match against Papua New Guinea, which has already lost two matches. Apart from this, the team also has to play a match against West Indies. While the net run rate of Uganda, PNG and New Zealand is very poor. In such a situation, even if the Afghanistan team loses both its matches…
