It was New Zealander&#39;s best bowling in One-Day Internationals (ODIs) and the World Cup and the third best by any bowler in the tournament&#39;s 11 editions.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">Only middle-order batter Joe Root made a notable contribution of 46 runs for England.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">To add to their humiliation, skipper Brendon McCullum made a mockery of their bowling blazing a 25-ball 77 to complete the New Zealand victory in just 12.2 overs.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">&quot;They bowled really well, it swung throughout our innings, which was pretty unexpected. We expected it to be batting friendly throughout the innings. We have lost the first two games, it will be difficult to regroup from hereon,&rdquo; said Morgan Friday.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">The captain, however, praised his counterpart McCullum for his destructive innings.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">&quot;We concentrate on simple things from here on. I feel a lot better as batsman after today. McCullum is not the ideal candidate to be bowling at when you have only 123 on board,&quot; added the 28-year-old.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n",
