New Zealand captain Kane Williamson praised the expansion of the T20 World Cup to 20 nations after co-hosts United States achieved a stunning upset by defeating Pakistan on Thursday, marking one of the biggest shocks in the tournament's history.
The World Cup, also co-hosted by the West Indies, now includes four additional teams, providing emerging cricket nations with more opportunities to gain experience in major tournaments. However, this expansion has also raised concerns about the potential for more one-sided matches.
