New Zealand\u2019s scoring rate dropped as soon as Josh Hazlewood bowled Allen. Conway later increased the side\u2019s power to 200, though. With stats of 2 for 41 in four overs, Josh Hazlewood was the standout bowler.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGot a call last night (being included in the XI) and had the night to sleep on it and get ready for today. We talked about throwing the first punch and not letting them settle early. It was just committing to that and being fearless. It\u2019s a good competitive score. We\u2019ve done half the job, hopefully we can finish it off,\u201d said Finn Allen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the current Super-12 encounter between Australia and New Zealand at the Sydney Cricket Ground on Saturday, Devon Conway struck\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":250,"featured_media":27671,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[3059,1571,3396,164,3058],"class_list":["post-4658","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cricket","tag-aus","tag-finn-allen","tag-icc-t20-world-cup-2022","tag-new-zealand","tag-nz"],"reading_time":"1 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4658","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/250"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4658"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4658\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27671"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4658"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4658"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4658"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
