9th Match - New Zealand v England

[Grasshopper]

We might be in with a chance here.

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Umpires are capable of a modicum of common sense. I hope some was applied here and one of the captains opted to take the break, otherwise this is just inexcusable stupidity.

 

[Burgey]

So who's going to break the ice with Finn at tea?

I wouldn't think any of the designated batsmen in his side would have the temerity.

 

[Athlai]

McCullum will use this as a chance for fastest 50.

Can't believe I got nothing after calling this when McCullum was 1(1)

 

[BackFootPunch]

For Athlai:

Cricket has some dumb rules, but this one just takes the cake.

 

[Sachin95]

england just got DEMOLISHED.

 

[BeeGee]

FMD I can't wait to play New Zealand now.

After SA's weak display in their first game, NZ and Aus must be the clear favourites now.

Should be a great game, hopefully with a full house.

 

[Athlai]

Freak thunderstorm now to make the game rained out.

Guptill's average in no results to get even better.

Could happen.

McCullum goes for the fastest 50 every innings though

 

[Neil Pickup]

Freak thunderstorm now to make the game rained out.

Not enough overs bowled to use D/L.

 

[NasserFan207]

For Athlai:

Cricket has some dumb rules, but this one just takes the cake.

This is specifically an English rule. Stopping for tea during a battle, etc

 

[Athlai]

McCullum goes for the fastest 50 every innings though

Fair played.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Wouldn't count out South Africa yet, the India game should be a better indication in my opinion.

 

[Athlai]

This ANZ ad is turning into the biggest call of the Summer. Getting everyone hyped.

 

[Antihippy]

Freak thunderstorm now to make the game rained out.

What's the D/L equation for New Zealand?

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

-15

 

[Cabinet96]

I never really get when England's batsman get blown away and people say they lack intent.

 

[Jono]

ban these ****s from limited overs cricket.

 

[Riggins]

What's the D/L equation for New Zealand?

If they were 1/18 at the moment it would be a tie. But they need 20 overs for a game according to D/L so it's a moo point.

 

[Cabinet96]

Michael Carberry giving it the big talk like he didn't just stand there and block the **** out of it when the going got tough in the Ashes.
