'I did not think Usman Khawaja was very fluent but he did well to hang in there for his 88 and New Zealand will feel frustrated that they had a couple of missed opportunities. Their fielding was not perfect, even though Martin Guptill took a stormer to get rid of Smith,' wrote Allan Border after Australia beat the Kiwis at the ICC World Cup 2019

'You can't knock the innings David Warner played. A few people have been saying he's scoring too slowly, but the ball was doing a bit and there was a little bit of swing and seam,' wrote Allan Border after the left-hander's innings against Pakistan at the ICC World Cup 2019

'I also thought Mitchell Starc bowled really well to take his five wickets. When he’s got his rhythm and his form is good, he’s definitely the best around – I think that is without question,' wrote former captain Allan Border after Australia defeated West Indies in the ICC World Cup 2019
