Kolkata, March 4 -- New Zealand opener Finn Allen expressed satisfaction after delivering one of his finest performances in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup history, saying his focus was on putting the team in a strong position and building momentum.

A historic century by Finn Allen, the fastest in T20 World Cup history, took New Zealand to the final of the ongoing T20 World Cup, stopping South Africa's unbeaten run by nine wickets at Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Wednesday.
