A New Zealand cricketer has hit back after his post-match emotionless reaction to his team booking a T20 World Cup final berth made headlines.
Overjoyed Kiwis players and staff leapt from their seats on the boundary line moments after they defeated England by five wickets in a huge semi-final boilover in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday night.
But all-rounder Jimmy Neesham stayed put in his chair, arms crossed and looking unimpressed, still haunted by the painful memories of New Zealand's heartbreaking loss in the ODI World Cup final two years ago.

Skipper Kane Williamson also remained seated but at least could manage a smile.
Neesham's priceless reaction to the Blacks Caps getting revenge against England left many cricket fans baffled.
