***Official*** Second Semi-Final: New Zealand vs. Pakistan

[Howsie]

Bondyyyyy.

 

[Zinzan]

Good start thrown away in one over.

Still not the worst start, it's obviously a 300+ wicket

Edit: Bond gets the breakthrough

 

[Zinzan]

And Bond's average sneaks below 20 again - 19.95

 

[Raghav]

It is 300+ pitch... If we can restrict PAK within 260, we should win it

 

[Howsie]

Hey Butler you're not 150K's anymore

 

[Raghav]

Awesome Picture

 

[Zinzan]

Vettori must be tempted to bring Mills back after just spelling him

Get Elliott on (If he can bowl). We need someone who can bowl wicket-to wicket stuff at the moment.

Kamran looking good now! yeah..Elliot should be brought in and ask him to bowl the wicket-to-wicket stuff

I suspect Elliott will be easy-pickings on this perfect batting track

Get the wicket keeper to the stumps; variation with speed may do for NZ by bowling wicket to wicket

EDIT: Just as I write, Ross takes a catch!! Vital Moment of the match

NZ ahead now

Either that or persevere with Butler & hope the batsman edges it to slip

Won't be any worse then James "125K" Franklin.

 

[Howsie]

Aaron Redmond. What a player

 

[nz0003]

Beauty! Redmond you ripper, Hopkins would of dropped that. Two good catches off Butlers bowling.

 

[99*]

Any excuse to get our physio on camera now.

Should offer the players, every wicket you get, the less clothes she wears during the rub downs.

 

[Raghav]

two uncertain runners at the ground.. chance for a run-out here

 

[Howsie]

I hate David Llyod. New Zealand's "workman like bowling line-up" That annoys me so much when people say that.

 

[Zinzan]

Won't be any worse then James "125K" Franklin.

Not sure if he will be better or not but it's meat & drink scoring runs off Franklin today, bowling 125kms on their legs with an offside field, go figure

This batting track doesn't look perfect to me tbh. Although it may not be Elliot's type of pitch.
