New Zealand began their ICC T20 World Cup 2022 campaign in emphatic fashion, thrashing defending champions Australia by 89 runs in Sydney on Saturday. Devon Conway smashed an unbeaten 92 off 58 balls to power New Zealand to a stiff 200 for three. The Kiwis then put up a disciplined bowing performance and were outstanding in the field as they bowled out the hosts, who struggled to get a partnership going, for 111 in 17.1 overs. Tim Southee (3/6) and Mitchell Santner (3/31) picked three wickets each. Put in to bat, Conway and Finn Allen (42 off 16 balls) gave NZ a rollicking start with the duo adding 56 off 25 balls. The left-handed opener then shared 69 runs with skipper Kane Williamson (23 off 23). Glenn Phillips (12) and James Neesham (26 not out) also chipped in with useful contributions.
