Shami is very good, when did this happen?

Been good for 5 years or so.

Cricketweb Indians have jinxed him.

This can be true He is a big match player but hasn't lived upto expectations so far in this match.

He's been extremely good for some time now. Especially in late game.

 

[Meridio]

That's what's called panicking. Saying we don't trust our top order

Of course, but it is tempting. I do think we need to be wary of going completely into our shells and building run rate pressure on ourselves though.

Conway will be gone on his way to the pavilion in the next couple of overs.

Oh it's a genuine question. I quite often tune back in after years of not paying attention and notice that some players have massively stepped it up.

Where is the short-leg?

 

[Aritro]

They're gonna run out of overs at this rate

 

[nightprowler10]

Where is the short-leg?

Thinking the same. I think it's needed when Shami is on.

 

[Arachnodouche]

NZ just a more well-rounded side, more assured with bat and ball. Deserving champions.

We can comfortably block the next 12 overs for nothing and we'll still be able to get there without panicking.

Just see off the new ball, nothing fancy. Merit of the ball stuff.

Once Shami is done with his 5 overs spell runs will come.

 

[hendrix]

Bowlers have started well, no freebies.

 

[OverratedSanity]

ffs how do nz get so many leg byes. Were a ton in the first innings too.

Thing is, we've seen all this tour that it's harder to bat after 10, 15 overs. Yes, play the ball on it's merits but if they do miss their line or length climb into it.

India started very accurately so far

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

One stat that I love is the balls/dismissal

 

[Teja.]

Congrats NZ, well played.
