1st Semi Final - India v New Zealand

[trundler]

27-1 is the best you could expect from NZ realistically

 

[Stapel]

27 the lowest PP this WC? What did India get vs England?

 

[hendrix]

Latham can have a pretty awesome straight and on-drive too.

But he's pretty much dead to me these days so yeah

Same iirc

 

[ajdude]

Haha too random. Don't remember him at all

really? he’s zimbabwe’s current test captain

 

[Spark]

geeeeez that looked close to me

 

[trundler]

That looked a better shout than the first ball

 

[OverratedSanity]

Looked out ffs

 

[hendrix]

Lots of dots from Nicholls . Have no issues with him showing caution against the likes of Bumrah and Bhuvi, but needs to find ways of ticking it over against the likes of Pandya at least.

You really gotta be able to go after Bhuvi from here on out, surely.

The ball is just gonna come onto the bat so nicely. Surely gotta make him pay, plus at least one of the spinners.

that was quietly out

 

[harsh.ag]

Nicholls sweeping Jadeja away despite a leg slip is glorious.

 

[cnerd123]

review that Kohli

oh wait

 

[Spark]

ahh fair enough to not give those out

 

[trundler]

Woah and his over is completed

 

[harsh.ag]

Haven't seen him bat for a long time I mean. No memory of his batting.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Nichols finally getting to bat against spin will be useful for NZ here. Looked surprisingly solid so far.

 

[cnerd123]

Jaddu getting some decent turn that over. Not a bad idea to pick 2 spinners it seems, especially if the skies clear up.

 

[trundler]

Pandya should be cannon fodder here

 

[Neil Young]

Irrespective of what he does from here in this match, Nicholls has completely won me round as a cricketer. I was very anti.

I'm sure he'll be stoked.
