1st Semi Final | NZ vs Pak | Sydney, 09 Nov 2022

[straw man]

Great batting and Southee just putting nothing on those first two balls bowling medium-pace length. Pakistan simply did not bowl vanilla medium pace.

 

[_Ed_]

I'm gonna celebrate every dot ball at this point.

 

[Burgey]

Rizwan taking a lot of pressure off Azam with this start

 

[morgieb]

This is probably the most Pakistan tournament of all-time.

 

[Burgey]

God this is just hitting practice from Southee. Terrible LO bowling

 

[subshakerz]

Wheels coming off. NZ look rattled like heck. I don't think they expected such strong crowd support against them.

 

[BeeGee]

Okay it's all gonna be on our spinners to win this. Seamers looking awful

It won't matter. The RRR is so low now there is no pressure to score off them.

 

[_Ed_]

Feel like this could be an all-time bad sporting day for me. The horse I have a 5% share in came last in a race he was one of the favourites for, thanks to a suspected heart fibrillation (with many hundreds of dollars of last-minute travel plans), and now...

 

[Apex Predator]

Lol Southee trundling & duly put to the sword..

 

[straw man]

It will be annoying when Pakistan play a top game to win this semi and then roll over and die against India in the final.

 

[trundler]

That's lucky but worth the risk

 

[Burgey]

Williamson has missed a trick not bowling a spinner in the power play. There’s been a lot of damage done

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

poor smith forced to be there

 

[slippy888]

Was it right choice from toss to bat first

 

[Apex Predator]

You needed Bracewell to restrict these two in PP... Feeding lollypop pacers. Just poor strategy from the get go

 

[harsh.ag]

Owned.

 

[Everton Seymour]

Damn Pakistan is like the House of Stark family! You can't afford to give them even a sniff ....Leave one wolf behind and the sheep are never safe!

 

[Socerer 01]

Best bowler in T20i is here guys

 

[morgieb]

Watch out Pakistan, the best T20 bowler in the world is coming to get you.

 

[Moss]

Didn’t watch most of the powerplay but looks pretty feeble from NZ. Should have brought on spin right away
