4th Quarter Final - New Zealand v West Indies (21st March)

[Athlai]

Guptill! So good

 

[Meridio]

Guppy for a double century?

 

[Zinzan]

Closed.

Really should have made it an avatar nomination for the closest to hand the furthest out, but too late.

I gotta say Jason Holder is a very poor captain at this stage. Awful bowling changes thus far persisting with some very ordinary bowlers when Taylor has got 6 overs left. I like him a lot but he shouldn't be being exposed like this CLive Lloyd has a lot to answer for.

Holder is a crap captain. I have always thought captaincy is overrated but this guy is single-handedly costing his team with it.

With what happened at the end of the India game and what's happening today, no excuses really. But the excuse will be the same old young captain BS.

 

[morgieb]

These quarter finals have been bitterly disappointing.

 

[Shri]

Guptill 200 on the cards.

 

[Athlai]

Decent innings that from Taylor.

 

[Gnske]

Classic Ross

 

[GGG]

Bah, Typical Taylor innings of late.

 

[morgieb]

Oh and morgieb - 339.

Guptill looking to raise the run rate by running out Taylor

 

[Athlai]

Bah, Typical Taylor innings of late.

Yip match winning partnership forming.

 

[Adgey]

Not really a big deal that wicket in the context of the game

 

[Athlai]

We've gone straight to icing folks.

 

[kiwiviktor81]

Final score sweep: (get in before the start of the 37th over).

Zinzan 321
AndyZaltz 333
Shady Slim 317
Nufan 351
Bahzn 315

I said 349 on the Black Caps FB at about the 30th over, so if it isn't too late here...

 

[Immenso]

I actually reckon that was a pretty good innings by Taylor.

Bad dismissal, though.

 

[viriya]

Taylor did his job.. platform set for 350+

 

[Zinzan]

Decent innings that from Taylor.

Was excellent initially consolidating with Guptill when we lost our 2nd wicket, but felt he lost his way around the 30th over. Was made to look better since Guptill was magnificent from that point.

 

[GGG]

Yip match winning partnership forming.

Yeah shouldn't knock him, just disappointed as I wanted him to kick on for confidence.

 

[Prince EWS]

We've gone straight to icing folks.

Taylor's innings was a big helping of unsweetened sponge cake, so it's definitely time for some sweet, sweet icing.
