London: Spin great Daniel Vettori is optimistic of New Zealand competing for title in the 2023 World Cup, preferring to look ahead instead of brooding over the gut-wrenching defeat to England in Sunday’s final. Heartbroken New Zealand fans expressed pride on Monday in the Black Caps’ fighting spirit after defeat to England in the World Cup final. “The two ties are crazy, but there will be a lot of pride around the performance not only in this game but with the way New Zealand have played throughout the whole World Cup.” Former New Zealand cricketers were also left hugely disappointed by the ICC’s rule, describing it as “absurd” and “unfortunate”, but Vettori pointed to the fact that England delivered under tremendous pressure.
