***Official***Semi-Final #1- India vs New Zealand - November 15th - Wankhede, Mumbai (D/N)

[loterry1994]

Current odds India 1-5 NZ 7-2. I reckon it's closer than that.

New Zealand should be like $3.50 here honestly

Err, I can't believe I'm saying this but I think NZ are favourites.

Nah pretty much everything still has to go right for NZ from here. They're well in the game though.

Forgot madushanka had that many wickets

Cricket is a funny game , bossed the entire tournament with 9 one sided games , and then you get put into a situation where a team refuses to roll over for you ..And it just becomes a bit of a nightmare. Mentally it's a big challenge for India, they are in a scrap .

Our previous game wasn't one sided till the final 10 overs

 

[Window]

Tbf the pitches these days are obscene.

Seriously, such pitches need to be binned.

Regardless of the outcome I'm immensely proud in our recovery from that first powerplay. Ball was hooping, it was a different game. Now we're properly in this even if there is still a long way to go.

Anyone that thinks we don't deserve to be here, or that we're scared, or that we're chokers can get ****ed.

Some people just posting some absolute nonsense tbh ... my ignore button has got a workout in this thread.

I still can't believe how good Mitchell is. I've never seen a ho-hum provincial cricketer turn into a monster as he has.

Gotta give it to Howsie, he talked Mitchell up where no one else saw it. Didn't think he'd be this insanely good though. He's like Grant Elliott but clutch-er

 

[King Kane]

The ball is turning corners now.

Don’t want nz making another final and losing lol

Quite a bit of Styris in him also in the ability to take on an unlikely no.4 spot

 

[loterry1994]

Still a better over

 

[Athlai]

We didn't lose the previous final

I didn't know that. Fair play to Howsie!

Jadeja gave him nothing to hit there.

 

[Adorable Asshole]

Mitchell pulling a Kohli

You mean guiding the team to a mammoth total?

 

[Jumno]

179 off 18.something required

NZ can win this

 

[silentstriker]

This is the game - this Shami spell right here.

 

[BazBall21]

What a player.

 

[King Kane]

A great ton from Mitchell.

Better than Kohli's ton.
