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

[Athlai]

NZ don't have a Shami

We do have a Santner tho

 

[karan_fromthestands]

Mitchell will hole out soon I think.

On the upside I'm feeling justified about saying Pakistan wouldn't have beaten us if it went the full 50 overs, this is how easy it is to fall apart in a chase like this.

That was a weird game. An absolute road with short boundaries and NZ went with 3 spinners. They were all getting hammered, Pak had a higher chance of winning coz of NZ's bowling combination.

No dew it seems?

Cricinfo says ‘Match tied (England win on boundary countback)’

It’s so dumb that people still say this. Like I said, nobody says Argentina didn’t win the footy WC final

The match result is tied.
The world cup is on boundary countback

Who averages 58 against Pakistan in ODIs.

Is that soccer? That's because they probably scored more goals.

 

[karan_fromthestands]

We need to send in Lance Cairns or Chris Cairns.

Nathan Astle

 

[King Kane]

Mitchell goes bang again for six.

He still has some strength left.

Better in this WC tho

 

[cnerd123]

Oh I’ll be biting every single time the untruth is mentioned

have you set a google alert for this

Well I’m going to quote your friend who said check cricinfo because the boundary countback is in brackets on the final result, not an addendum to the tournament.

This would be a valid argument if the criteria was like the 99 WC semi where it went off prior result in the super 6. But it wasn’t, it was self contained to the final. That was the criteria for winning the final. Suck it up, you’ve had four years.

Sort by results. You'll find its a tie

Facts.. yea with tall chases its all about Breaking one partnership

 

[trundler]

Do we have to do this with a world cup semi final going on ffs

 

[OverratedSanity]

There are two Kuldeep overs left, wonder if Rohit is hoping the equation gets too difficult by the time he's forced to bring him on.

 

[King Kane]

Time to swing the bat Maxwell style, it's go hard or go home time now.

Nobody disputes that you absolute weapon (hence the penalty shootout point), my god, you're behaving like Richard. Just enjoy Daryl Mitchell's innings and bore off

 

[loterry1994]

Just goes to show no matter how good a bowler you are. In this format you get a flat pitch and all these rules that favour the batsmen and you’ll still struggle to be economical or get wickets like most bowlers have struggled tonight

 

[Adorable Asshole]

Mitchell had given up
