T20 World Cup 2026: Super Eights, Match 46, NZ vs SL – Top 3 player battles to watch out for
The match will be crucial in New Zealand’s semifinal chances, after their opening game in the Super 8 versus Pakistan was called off due to rain.
2. Glenn Phillips vs Maheesh Theekshana
New Zealand batter Glenn Phillips can play spin well from the Kiwi side. The middle-order batter also is having a great campaign in the ongoing T20 World Cup. He has the knack of keeping the innings held together with his presence in the middle.
Up against will be Theekshana, who will look to exploit spin-friendly conditions at the venue. The Sri Lanka spinner has taken eight wickets so far, and his side would want him to increase that tally against New Zealand.
