India v New Zealand (WTC FINAL, replay-- NAHHHHH) at the Ring of Fire, Dubai, 10/31 Sunday (N)-- Match #28, Group 2

[Kirkut]

Ok, we need some ATG bowling from our side now to win this.

 

[duffer]

Panauti lost the toss again ?

This game is pointless now

 

[Fuller Pilch]

NZ has really stacked the bowling here. Hope we can get early wickets ala England v Australia.

Another night of sleep ruined. I hope it is worth it

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

The impact player is going to be Ishan Kishan

He's in

 

[Moss]

Nah, NZ have a tendency to mess up T20 chases they really shouldn’t (Indian viewers would know). That’s assuming they restrict India well to begin with, though Milne should sharpen up the attack.

Would have preferred it if it was Mitchell who was replaced by Milne and not Seifert, the latter is decent against spin and has done well against India. Anyway, hope Conway puts up a decent show behind the sticks, better for the balance of the side if he keeps.

Rohit isn't opening.

It's KL and Ishan.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Come on Ishan, pound them

 

[cnerd123]

Kishan opening! Yay!

This could be fun. Or really bad very soon. More likely the latter.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Is this India's most tattooed opening pair?

I'd think so

 

[smash84]

ohhh, boult getting some swing

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

The LBW shout looked like it was going down leg with the angle. Ishan's head went over the ball....

 

[smash84]

that looked pretty good in real time

 

[smash84]

I feel that teams are too defensive with their use of DRS in T20

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Kishan plays away from the body

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Need 2 wickets in power play, but these dots are good

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Why was the mid-on so wide and close in?

 

[Daemon]

Ffs smash them. It’s the ****ing powerplay.

 

[Kirkut]

Ffs smash them. It’s the ****ing powerplay.

We don't want to be 16/3 again man...

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Shot boy!

 

[cnerd123]

Kishan deciding to just smash 'em, which is exactly why he was picked tbh
