Thousands of Pakistani fans are intently following the Sri Lanka vs. New Zealand World Cup match currently underway in Bengaluru. They are all hoping to get a result in favour of the Lankan side, if not, the contest gets abandoned due to unpleasant weather conditions.

However, none of them is likely to be the outcome of the game, as the match, as of writing, hasn’t got interrupted due to rain. And to make matters worse, Sri Lanka are in deep trouble against Kane Williamson and Co., having slipped to 111/7 in 20 overs.

Among them, the most crucial wicket that New Zealand took was Angelo Mathews’. The veteran all-rounder made headlines against Bangladesh after becoming the first player in international cricket to be ‘timed out’. Mitchell Santner's outstanding delivery outwitted him this time, as he left after scoring 16 off of 27 balls.

It was a brilliant slow delivery by Santner, which landed right in front of Mathews, who attempted for a defensive push. But the turn of the delivery got better of the Sri Lankan, as the ball got a massive outside edge before Daryl Mitchell took a simple catch at slip.
