Zimbabwe's star player Sean Williams says his team was underestimated their World Cup competitor team after they snatched of 4 wicket win against the UAE in the World Cup.
Though losing by 62 runs against South Africa in their opening game of the tournament they did not fail to impress. Zimbabwe were thought to be winning at Saxton Park in Nelson in the Pool B clash.
But Williams accepted that they were astonished by the quality of their competitor after watching the clips of their pervious games, due to which they agreed that UAE's batting was not up to the mark.
" We didn't know what to expect from them and they put up a really good performance. Our fielding wasn't that great and we were basically waiting for them to get themselves out but that wasn't the case. They actually hit the ball really well down the ground and they hit the ball long. Any cricket team on the day, if they get all three departments (batting, bowling and fielding) right, will take a top team right to the end. UAE are obviously still learning and so are we. They batted really well but I guess they just need to learn when the key moments are in a game. It's the same with us. We are still learning, trying to understand when key moments are and when to put the foot on the gas," he said to the sky sports.
