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

[Flem274*]

Bowl milne and finish this

Shami > Southee

(this WC)

Group stages? I'd still fight it. But now? Yeah I'll dip my hat.

And Southee bowls a wicket maiden. WAC, can't even bowl poorly properly.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

I thought the video umpire controlled the replay by himself.

Wouldn't mind Williamson having one over for confidence, anyway it's Milne.

 

[Chewie]

Tallest combined height of batsmen at the crease?

 

[JediNudist]

Southee will be persisted with due to his swing in NZ conditions. I reckon a rethink on Southee if NZ gets to the MCG . Dry Aussie conditions starting in the afternoon not much swing. I think Southee should be replaced with McClenaghen.

Haha really? It's not a DVD player, and I'd bet half of them would have trouble with that.

Not happening. But yes, I'm worried about how the NZ bowling goes in MCG if they get there.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Nah, ridiculous to change the team for the final.

Total rubbish. Southee wouldn't get dropped if he bowled like this for the rest of the year. He is our best bowler and leader of the attack. Boult may be having a better WC but there is no way Southee is anywhere near getting dropped.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Dropping Southee is what Sri Lankan selectors would do (ie) that's stupid.

 

[viriya]

At least WI will be competitive in T20s for years to come.

 

[Hurricane]

Holder is the best number 9 in the tournament

 

[Shady Slim]

you know just saying this would be a contest if half the windies batsmen didn't throw their wickets away

 

[Shri]

Wouldn't mind Williamson having one over for confidence, anyway it's Milne.

Whose confidence? Holder's?

 

[Athlai]

Dunno about that. The only reason they're anywhere near this runrate is because of the reckless abandon they've played with.

 

[irfan]

Atleast WI have beaten Guptill - some solace I guess

 

[Athlai]

Boult would have taken that. #besthands

 

[Shady Slim]

Dunno about that. The only reason they're anywhere near this runrate is because of the reckless abandon they've played with.

cut back on said abandon for one or two shots and vettori's acrobatics aside and they could have four more wickets left with about just ten more runs

 

[JediNudist]

Oh man Southees getting creamed

1 wicket 152 needed of 120 balls
