ICC World Cup 2023: An unassuming cricketer like most of his New Zealand teammates, Mitchell Santner has been the team`s go-to bowler at the World Cup and will play his 100th ODI against Australia on Saturday with high expectations.
The 31-year-old left-arm spinner has claimed 12 wickets in five matches so far to be one behind Adam Zampa of Australia. Santner`s ability to choke the runs and get regular wickets makes him a key asset on India`s slow, turning pitches. His economy-rate of 4.25 is second only to India fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah (3.80).
