***Official***Match #35 - New Zealand vs Pakistan - November 4th - Bengaluru

[Jumno]

Pak doing well in this chase, should be a good game

 

[Jumno]

240 off 29 overs required

Need to keep up with the rate

 

[GIMH]

This will be the first DLS of the tournament won’t it?

Only other reduced game I can remember was SA V Ned which IIRC was reduced before play.

 

[Flem274*]

80 from 7 overs?

Bit of a screwing hahaha

edit - nvm read it wrong. 342 from 41 overs. Pretty similar to our SA semi. Based on the amazing start I'd say Pakistan box seat.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Part of me wonders if Stead does anything during this break. Like is he giving out some good strategies while the team just kind of rolls their eyes.

 

[Athlai]

182 needed from 19.3 ?

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Still loling that Phillips bowled a maiden.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

182 needed off 20 overs from here ... seems fair.

What?

342 off 41 according to cricinfo.

 

[Shri]

It will be a 41-over chase. The target is 342. We start at 6:20pm local time, so 20 minutes from now

That's a long time to be loling.

 

[OverratedSanity]

182 from 19.3 is excellent for Pakistan. Big chance for them.

 

[Athlai]

What?

342 off 41 according to cricinfo.

That was the actual required (240 more from 29 overs)

But rain might return and **** everything up.

Why start 20 mins later, why not 10 mins?

So annoying

So annoying

They're drying the outfield OP

 

[Days of Grace]

That was the actual required (240 more from 29 overs)

But they need 180 more from 20 overs?

 

[King Kane]

It's like a T20 now.

I think that equation favours us but I'm still not confident while Fakhar is still there.

 

[smash84]

So they reduced 9 overs with only 60 runs being taken off the target, seems unfair

 

[Athlai]

We were probably still decent favourites at 240 needed from 29 overs with all the overs our bowlers needed. Now it's probably Pakistan 65/35
