15.2: Muhammad Rohid to Tim Seifert, SIX! There is the game! In the slot, a touch fuller and touch wider. Seifert leans inside the line and launches it over long off for a massive six. The Kiwi openers have broken the world record for the highest partnership in the Men's T20 World Cup for any wicket, going past the pair of Jos Buttler and Alex Hales, who added 170* against India in 2022 at Adelaide. New Zealand chased down a mammoth total with 10 wickets in hand and close to 5 overs to spare.
