The most important toss for the Black Caps since the 2015 Cricket World Cup final
The most important toss for the Black Caps since the 2015 Cricket World Cup final
5 July 2019
And it's not even a game they're playing in.
Pakistan must bat first tonight against Bangladesh to keep alive their tiny hopes of making the cricket World Cup semi-finals.
They then need to post a huge score, over 300 and bowl out Bangladesh for an incredibly low score on a sliding scale.
If Bangladesh win the toss and bat, the Black Caps are into the last four.
Judging by Bangladesh coach Steve Rhodes' guarded response, they will get few favours.
He says he's giving nothing away about their plans either tactically or at the coin flip.
First ball's at 9:30pm.
