1st Semi Final - India v New Zealand

[trundler]

Nah he'd be ok as the wicketkeeper-batsman playing at number 6 after Dhoni goes. He is not a number 4 batsman. Team management sucks.

I meant he needs to get out lol.

Pandya will have to throw Neesh off his line somehow.

That's better.

 

[Moss]

Nah, don't give MSD width Neesh.

For people who thought yesterday that DLS is giving too much of an advantage to NZ by giving India 148 in 20 overs to chase with 10 wickets in hand should note that:

we are now chasing 148 in 20 overs with 5 wickets remaining

 

[stephen]

You just got marooned.

Yeah that was a very Queensland ending by NSW there. Still wasn't as good as the Coyne try even if it was more meaningful in the context of the series.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Required Run Rate now up to 7.5

Yeah its easy to say RR doesn't matter until you look at it and it's suddenly unmanageable even with wickets in hand.

 

[h_hurricane]

So they need 148 of 20 after all. DLS, you are awesome.

 

[hendrix]

Keep bowling Santner, bring back Henry

 

[trundler]

NZ have fielded way better today. Ground fielding especially.

 

[wrongun]

yeah, Especially after this Delhi brat used his power to oust Anil Kumble for no reason...

Yuppppp. To be honest, Indian cricket deserves better than senseless arrogance and picking players on reputation instead of merit. Kohli's arrogance, Shastris facilitating that and Dhoni being a hypocrite and not stepping down has almost cost them.

 

[DriveClub]

Crazy figures for santner

 

[slippy888]

why india struggle to pick up singles against satner

 

[trundler]

So they need 148 of 20 after all. DLS, you are awesome.

Factors in wickets in hand too.

 

[Burner]

He's atleast a moderate upgrade^TM on Rahul.

Agree that it might not necessarily have made a huge difference though.

He's a massive upgrade over Rahul. Come on. The bloke's only here because they've invested too much in him and they don't want that to go to waste.

 

[Flem274*]

thank you santa

 

[OverratedSanity]

Welp. Well played NZ.

 

[morgieb]

Awesome bowling from Santner. That should be the game.

 

[King Pietersen]

That's a properly dumb shot.

 

[cnerd123]

Yea Hardik had to have a go there. That's that.

Really bad loss on the cards here for India. The media and fan backlash is going to be immense.

I see you're not familiar with the moderate upgrade meme.
