1st Semi Final - New Zealand v South Africa (24th March)

[jonbrooks]

Damn Tahir looks good. WAG! 71 from 5 overs and then a maiden. Well done.

NZ need to play sensibly. They have the RR under control. 6s per over is all required.

 

[Spikey]

immy's wicket

 

[Flem274*]

someone knee cap tahir. if we're going down make it someone cool like the rest of the attack

 

[OverratedSanity]

Tahir is already starting to break hearts if he bowls maidens.

Baz's knock has afforded NZ the luxury of a few maidens anyway.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Tahir's wicket.

 

[jonbrooks]

Retardation! Retardation! Retardation! Why?! Why?! Why?! Why?!

 

[cnerd123]

Ahhhhh ****. Fun over.

Time for Kane to ton up.

 

[morgieb]

Oh dear McCullum.

 

[Shady Slim]

issue is that if he bowls maidens it might draw false shots and such

oh okay then wham bam thank you ma'am

 

[hendrix]

hmmmmm.
KW

 

[Flem274*]

uh oh

 

[jonbrooks]

All it took was one tight over and McCullum blew it. Why?! WHY?! When all the hard work was done. :-( So upsetting.

 

[ankitj]

Missed first six overs. Came back and McCallum gone

 

[ajdude]

OMG! HOw can that be BOUNCING over? That's not possible WTF. That hit him on the back thigh. That should have cannoned into middle stump 6 inches from the top.

looked a top spinner hitting him reasonably high on the back thigh, and his tbf his back thigh was a fair bit further down the track than it usually would be. would've expected an umpire's call though

 

[Zinzan]

Oh well, cost them 71 runs to buy McCullum's wicket. The team just need to follow him now. Excellent innings.

 

[straw man]

Nooooo.

I was enjoying that innings.

 

[Zinzan]

Tahir had it all over Guptill in that last over but will KW be able to handle him?

 

[hendrix]

How much did the NZ board pay the ICC for this match?

can you please explain what the **** you're talking about here?

And people thought my posting was trolling.

JFC.

 

[viriya]

Kane's time to show that he's the real deal.

If NZ lose this from here it will be a choke imo.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Has done his job. Great knock. Now for Kane Elliott and Taylor to deliver.
