[Watch] Fans Erupt In Joy As Williamson Departs After Another Low Score In T20 WC 2024

Williamson departed for just 1 [X]

Kane Williamson has not had a solid outing in his two matches in the T20 World Cup 2024. He struggled against the Afghanistan spinners in the opening match, and once again showed his vulnerability against spin, as he was dismissed by Gudukesh Motie.

New Zealand had the game in the palm of their hands at one stage, however, Sherfane Rutherford's explosive knock propelled the Windies to a competitive 149. Chasing a tricky total, New Zealand lost Devon Conway early, but a lot was expected out of skipper Williamson, who perished for just 1.

Motie foxes Williamson

The West Indies spinners were at their best and Motie foxed Williamson with a brilliantly disguised delivery. He bowled an off-break outside the off as the Kiwi captain gets an outside-edge. Pooran, standing behind as the keeper had fast reflexes as he took a really good catch to end Williamson's short stay at the crease. The fans erupted in joy as the big fish was trapped by the Windies spinner.

One brought the downfall of another as Rachin Ravindra, who came back into the playing XI was also dismissed by Motie.

At the moment, New Zealand are struggling to score runs and have already lost 5 crucial wickets, as the required rate is climbing high.
