World Cup 2023 Points Table: India No Longer Top-placed In Standings After New Zealand's Win vs Afghanistan
The Tom Latham-led New Zealand once again stamped their authority in the Cricket World Cup 2023 with a 149-run win over Afghanistan. The Hashmatullah Shahidi-led Afghanistan came into the match after a stunning win over defending champions England. Much was expected of them but against New Zealand, they failed to fire. New Zealand, boosted by half-centuries by Tom Latham, Glenn Phillips and Will Young, scored 288/6. In reply, Afghanistan could manage only 139 in 34.4 overs. New Zealand have looked a very balanced side and next face India in their fifth match of the Cricket World Cup.
