The Latest: NZ 33-1 after 10 overs, Williamson in early
LONDON (AP) — The Latest on the Cricket World Cup final (all times local):
11:30 a.m.
The opening powerplay is over in the Cricket World Cup final, and Kane Williamson is already in the middle for New Zealand.
The Black Caps’ opening partnership again failed to survive the first 10 overs as Martin Guptill was trapped lbw by Chris Woakes for 19 after 6.2 overs.
New Zealand was 33-1, with captain Williamson on 1 and opener Henry Nicholls on 10.
Nicholls, on 0 at the time, successfully appealed an lbw decision off the bowling of Jofra Archer in the third over. Replays showed the ball was going over the stumps.
Guptill hit an uppercut for six and a straight four, both off Archer, before he burnt New Zealand’s review.
