4th Quarter Final - New Zealand v West Indies (21st March)

[Zinzan]

Unbelievable. The bloke has watched Southee destroy his team.

Tbf Southee & Boult are excellent bowlers without quite being cricket 'superstars'. I'm talking from a world-wide perspective, not from a NZ'ders.

 

[straw man]

ugh, Williamson solidifying his reputation as the new Michael Clarke by getting out in a very Clarke-like way

 

[NUFAN]

Completely against the run of play apart from that lbw shout which was ****ing close.

Looking forward to seeing how Ross handles this situation.

 

[JediNudist]

Which commentator was that?

NZ bowlers have never been rated. No idea why. How can Botham, say Boult and Southee are not super stars ? Sourhee took 7 wickets against Engkand !! So you have to bowl 150 like Starc to be considered a super star ?

 

[Shady Slim]

I don't mind the result staying with the umpire, it's the loss of review that bothers me.

Half agree.

The result is what the umpire says, the idea of that is fine. But 50% is too much of a leeway zone, I reckon that the ball portion needed for a hit should be closer to 35%

but yeah

the loss of a review is crapola

He does rate them ffs, he said he put money on NZ to win the world cup.

 

[JediNudist]

wow oh dear Willaimson has fallen to Andres medium pace dibblys .That brings Ross into bat. Good chance to get a decent score

Windies haven't bowled that well , its just been poor shots by NZ batsman. Once again out going aerial. PLAY THE BALL ALONG THE GROUND

So nervous that NZ batsman will get the chokes and we get all out for 230. need a really good partnership now.

 

[Pothas]

Unbelievable. The bloke has watched Southee destroy his team.

Yeah but it is always 'look these NZ bowler can make the ball swing why can't our much better bowlers do it.'

 

[Zinzan]

Lol, No run-outs Rosco, not today. Be alert please.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Can't wait for Taylor to look garbage for 50 deliveries.

 

[BigBrother]

Not being a superstar basically means you don't have a lot of fanboys. Not really a bad thing by any means.

 

[viriya]

Can't wait for Taylor to look garbage for 50 deliveries.

Sounds like you hate yourself.

 

[Zinzan]

Pitch is definitely slowing up. Williamson wasn't that far away from giving a tough caught and bowled chance as well, so that wasn't the first time the slowness undid him.

Vettori will be licking his chops.

 

[Athlai]

Sounds like you hate yourself.

Haha wtf

 

[Athlai]

Guptill > You

 

[Zinzan]

Taylor not looking terrible so far.

 

[Athlai]

Timed!

 

[_Ed_]

Glorious Guptill.

Well mate who else can we replace 156 ODIs and an average of 42 with then ? Tom Latham ? Booze head Ryder ? Anton Devcich ?
