Santner didn’t pick up any wickets in his four-over spell during the previous two clashes and ended up with 1/19 in four overs at an economy rate of 4.75 in Colombo. In the same encounter, the left-handed batter smashed 47 runs with the bat and contributed massively.
“I wouldn't mind winning a trophy. We are pretty consistent. It's been no different this time. If we do our little things well, it'll put us in a good position. I wouldn't mind breaking a few hearts. T20 is a fickle format. Little moments in the game can change the outcome. If we go about our business, we can upset them. India has a lot of pressure to win this. Let's see what happens.” Santner informed.
“We were challenged in the bilateral series. We played on five very good surfaces. It's all learning. Good conversation from that series. The World Cup final is pretty much different. A lot of different things can happen in a game. You want to be consistent with the approach. Watch the videos, analyze, and execute well out there.” The New Zealand all-rounder shed light.
