All pressure off Australia now.

 

[JaDed]

Santner and Sodhi have five overs and he brings in Milne? Djoniesque move by Williamson

He did similar stuff against India luckily Kohli still couldn't get the "form" and got out first ball to Ish

 

[yasir]

Mline is bowling spin as well, might as well give it to regular one... Two french cuts did not help

They still have 7/8 spin overs left

 

[Madplayer]

Its so hard to time the ball on this pitch. Not a straight forward case here for Aussies. 58 required from 42

 

[JaDed]

3 extras and 2 boundaries in that over,gave away all the pressure created in prev overs.

 

[Madplayer]

Need to play out sodhi here. And target pace bowlers.

 

[yasir]

Santner and Sodhi have five overs and he brings in Milne? Djoniesque move by Williamson

KW has being winning but some ordinary captaincy in both matches... You have to act fast cannot afford 10 runs overs

 

[Abhilash93]

Santner and Sodhi have five overs and he brings in Milne? Djoniesque move by Williamson

And some guys were praising him for the bowling changes

 

[Adil_94]

Maxwell looks like he can get out every ball

Good over by Sodhi, 4 off it

 

[On_the_up]

Marsh get hold of that one, pressure off a little

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Yeah but I suppose he could afford to do that against us since we lost 3-4 wickets cheaply in the beginning and he wanted to get the seamers to get a couple of cheap overs in. In this match though, it was imperative to keep Australia tied down since they were not completely out of the chase.

 

[Mr Consistent]

Yes Maxi

 

[On_the_up]

Maxi gone !!! scratchy inns comes to an end

 

[RamLakhan]

Australia well in control!
And as I type Maxwell goes

 

[Adil_94]

this was on the cards poor shot by Maxwell. the game was in the Aussies hands 43 off 30 is in their favour and he plays a hack shot like that. he really is Boom Boom part 2

Yup but luckily for him Sodhiji strikes.

 

[Adil_94]

NZ will win now. their lower order won't be able to play spin

Agar comes in ahead of Faulkner, what are Aussies thinking???

 

[Amjid Javed]

Maxwell gone, kiwis sticking in their somehow!

 

[Adil_94]

Mitchell Marsh seems to be from the Pakistani school of batting. with his block or blast approach

[Amjid Javed]

Agar before Faulkner? very strange move!

 

[RamLakhan]

All needed was sensible partnership. I remember how Chris Cairns in some important game against India took NZ home from tough position (even though it was ODI)

Yeah, remember the test in UAE??

He does not have temperament to grind the situation, like his predecessor Mr BB

 

[On_the_up]

RRR over 10

I remember he came down the track with a wild slog across the line and getting bowled when his team needed to save a test match.

[yasir]

Sochi giving only 1 run with wicket, makes it interesting!! - Maxwell to blame

 

[On_the_up]

Faulkner not even padded up from what I just saw in the TV shot

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Faulkner hasn't done much with the bat off late. Surprised Agar came though. Can Nevill not score quickly?

 

[JaDed]

Great over by Sodhi ,hope he bowls a bad last one so Aus win!

 

[Madplayer]

by marsh great power

 

[uberkoen]

This will go down to the wire.

 

[uberkoen]

I hope our selectors and team management are watching and understand the importance of a specialist spinner on these pitches.

For a indian fan which team winning will benifit india?
And for pak*?

2000 Champions Trophy Final

 

[Madplayer]

by agar now

 

[On_the_up]

Agar with a six too

 

[Adil_94]

game swinging back in the Aussies favour now after that six by Agar. this has been a very good game

Two sixes really killed it for NZ

It depends,IMO it should be Aus winning because Kiwis will bottle it against one of the Desi teams making it harder for us.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

So Santner can be hit.

 

[Madplayer]

Need a four in this sodhi over

 

[On_the_up]

1-14 for Sodhi, excellent figures

 

[JaDed]

Sodhi 4 overs 14 runs and a wicket that's it now Aus can smack everyone.

Oh so you mean the more group will be open for any team better for india right?

 

[Abhilash93]

Still 50-50

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Sodhi 4 overs 14 runs and a wicket that's it now Aus can smack everyone.

Terrific bowling once again from brother Ish. Wish he played for us .

 

[yasir]

So Santner can be hit.

It was rank turner the other day... Most Auses don't use their feet against spinners, sitting back is not the way to play spin... Pakistani's should not have problem against spin

 

[uberkoen]

Pointless shot by Marsh

 

[Adil_94]

NZ favourites again now.

[On_the_up]

Marsh goes, 22 required off 11 now.

 

[RamLakhan]

India couldn't bat like this because they do not really have the depth in the lower order

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

NZ favourites again now.

Exactly but looks like Aus are making sure its not that way.

He has being good on these wickets...

Pakistanis much be kicking themselves for missing Yasir or Not taking Osama... What is the purpose of Anwar Ali

Leg spinners are big in India

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Nzl making a match out of it. Oh boii they are good side and will be hard to beat.

I don't think Santner bowled too badly . Just didn't account for Marsh's longer reach and power. He lost his nerve after that first six. Just a bit.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Sometimes you can bowl well and still get hit in T20.

Top bowling by Santner.

 

[yasir]

McClenaghan and Mline are good death bowlers, so not easy for new comers...

 

[Adil_94]

NZ paajis in the crowd.

We should make a rank turner for Pak Aus game to knockout Australia

 

[Adil_94]

NZ have got this now.

Mitchell ended up being a much better selection who knew another bites the dust Kiwis in command

My thoughts exactly. He lost his line and length a bit after that six though.

You never know faulkner can do anything .

 

[yasir]

That's true, well that makes T20 hard format, no time to think no time to recover....

 

[carrom_ball]

I told you [MENTION=113824]Nikhil_cric[/MENTION] India and nz will qualify from this group

 

[uberkoen]

It's all over for Australia. NZ are all but through now. It gets tougher from here on now for all teams involved.

 

[On_the_up]

This is a very good over by Mclenaghan

True. One more spinner should've been in the squad.

 

[Adijazz1706]

20 off 7, Aussie hacks getting exposed.

 

[yasir]

Now McClenaghan is winning it for NZ...

 

[JilaWatan]

Being selected over southee and boult and he delivers.

 

[On_the_up]

19 req off the final over.
