*Official* Match 24 - New Zealand v Pakistan

[Burgey]

What a day thus far for NZ. Just amazing

Horrible start to the chase for Pakistan.

 

[ankitj]

From Cricinfo commentary:

And Alan Wilkins says if Pakistan chase this down, it will be the highest successful chase in Sri Lanka. Not good news for Pakistan.

Really? Never has a 302 or higher been chased in SL?

 

[Blaze 18]

Hmm, didn't know about that. But that's still 17-18 runs per over. This was ****ing 23 runs per over in last 4 overs. Unheard of!

Yeah, the only innings in recent memory that even compares is Cameron White's hitting against India recently (the match where Clarke got a century). Even that wasn't this brutal.

 

[Athlai]

Southee is having a quality world cup.

 

[andyc]

6, 0, 1, 4, 6, 6, 0, 4, 6, 1, 4, 6, 6, 2, 4, 6.

Taylor's last 16 balls. So crazy.

Surely NZ have this one in the bag now, especially with that early wicket. Carn Kiwis.

 

[Jono]

God I love Southee. Awesome team man. Hope he takes a bag tonight.

Yes, he's right.

 

[Jono]

With fielding like this from NZ, Pakistan are going to have to do something special to have a chance

 

[Athlai]

Rossco just nailed Pakistan so hard that after that innings two dozen Pakistani women are now carrying his child.

 

[Flem274*]

Oh ****, Vettori down.

 

[_Ed_]

Vettori injured? Oh **** no. Reckon Pakistan will win if he can't bowl.

Sigged

 

[Somerset Chops]

ah! so my 300 prediction is indeed true


mills also owning them now hilarious stuff this is

Your 300 prediction when the score was on 270 odd , good shout there !

Your user name is vert apt judging by your last half dozen posts.

 

[Adamc]

Hmm. Looked more worthy of a review than the previous.

 

[Flem274*]

MILLSY z

 

[_Ed_]

Great ball by Mills. Maybe there's still hope even if Vettori's gone for the game.

Hope his injury isn't as bad as it looks.

 

[Athlai]

Does Mills ever strike in his first over or two? Always seems to be around about now that he picks up wickets.

 

[Adamc]

Yeah Pakistan are ****ed.

Hopefully it is the same as O'Brien in the England game as his looked bad too. This does look more serious though.
