Daryl Mitchell Saw The First Two New Zealand Wickets Go Down Cheaply But Ensured He Batted Through – Simon Doull

Doull, during the commentary on air, said: “The great MS Dhoni, the great finisher, once said to me that the longer you bat, the deeper you take the game, the more worried is the opposition and its bowlers.”

He further added that Mitchell saw Martin Guptill and Kane Williamson get dismissed early and made sure that he batted till the very end. He said: “That is what Daryl Mitchell has done here tonight. He saw the first two New Zealand wickets go down cheaply but ensured he batted through, and here is taking his team closer to a place in the final.”
