Conceding 397 in 50 overs is not a problem. The problem is when you could see it coming from a mile away. In their last five matches, New Zealand have bowled first on four occasions and barring their final round robin game against Sri Lanka, they have conceded totals of 388 against Australia in Dharamsala, 357 against South Africa in Pune, and 397 against India in Mumbai.
The Black Caps have paid a heavy price for their inability to break partnerships in this World Cup. In Dharamsala, Travis Head and David Warner put on 175 for the first wicket followed by Quinton de Kock and Van Der Dussen putting on 200 for the second wicket in Pune.
