CLT20 |Mumbai Indians v Northern Districts | Raipur | Sept 16

[Bullet Drive]

So what we need basically is for ND to beat Mumbai so go ND.

Or we could hope Mumbai SMASH ND with a margin of about 80 runs.

Hopefully we can do it.

I'd rather ND bat first. Get a solid total on the board and then defend. That's what they like doing.

 

[Bullet Drive]

hmmmmm.

ND bowl first.

Come on boys!

 

[Bullet Drive]

Hope we can restrict them to about 120.

Devchich to come good!

 

[ViciousMachine]

I'll even take 140-150. 120 would be awesome!!

 

[Bullet Drive]

Do you think chasing is the better option?

 

[Bullet Drive]

Boult and Southee key up front.

Hoping for early wickets.

PLEASE do this for us !!!

 

[Fastandfurious]

Northern! Northern! Northern! Northern! Northern!

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

What is the equation if MI win ND but not by 80 run margin?

Who goes through in what condition?

LL or MI?

MI go through

 

[Bullet Drive]

Go Northern!!!!!!!!!

 

[TNA]

Mumbai are through even if they win by one run or off the last ball of their chase.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

MI go through

Oh I see.

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Has the match started?

 

[Bullet Drive]

Hope we smash em.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Has the match started?

20 mins sir.

 

[Strike Rate]

Aman should be happy Bullet Drive supporting a nz team haha

 

[Bullet Drive]

Ball will defo swing under lights so Southee & Boult will be key.

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Thanks brother

 

[TNA]

Meanwhile, for Knights to not go through they will have to lose by at least 87 runs, after Mumbai post 160. Very slim chance of this happening.

What margin does MI have to win by to beat Lahore?

 

[Ikball]

Lahore Lions can qualify if Northern Knights lose to Mumbai Indians by 83 runs. Then MI & LL will go through.

 

[Bullet Drive]

15 mins to go.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Hussey will be key.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Ish Sodhi is a quality leg spinner.

 

[Ikball]

What margin does MI have to win by to beat Lahore?

Just a win knock out LL, as MI are ahead of NRR at the moment.

 

[Bullet Drive]

How much can the NK chase?

 

[Ahson8]

Come on NK.
Boult and Southee to rip the Mumbai top-order InshaAllah.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Would also love it if Mumbai scored 200 and NK were bowled out for 100.

This would mean Lahore would go through.

So much for supporting NK.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Come on lads.

 

[Zeshan547]

once in champion trophy match all the indians were on their knees and praying for a pak win vs aussies for india to qualify. And you know what we almost fulfilled their wish. But lost by one wicket i guess. But pak was already through. Strange things do happen in this world mate.

 

[Bullet Drive]

So much for supporting NK.

I support the team that help Lahore qualify, that's all.

 

[ViciousMachine]

Still better to support NK.

Even if Mumbai score 200, NK know they only need to chase 100 to qualify. They will just bat nice and slow. Plus, Mumbai will only need a win, so they wont mind giving away singles. That would be WORST CASE for Lahore. If Mumbai score big, almost guaranteed both teams will play safe, and Lahore is out.

Best case would have been if NK had batted. Lets just hope Mumbai lose some wickets early, not a deep batting unit.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Don't let us down NK

yes anything can happen in cricket

lol BD stop it now you sound like a nz fan hahah

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Hoping for A Lightning Boult And Southee Havoc

 

[mithun_minhas]

MI are stupid to not play Corey Anderson. They play guys like Gopal, Saxena over Anderson?
Their batting sucks and the only destructive batsmen in their ranks does not get to play

 

[mithun_minhas]

IF MI can score 150, they win. Kiwis are not great players of spin.

 

[Munna]

81 run win margin for MI or a simple victory for NK to let LL qualify... I don't know which one is more probable here tbh lol

 

[ViciousMachine]

I completely agree on the Anderson point. But it is not hard to see their clear strategy. They want spinners instead of pace bowlers against NK.

Hopefully their strategy fails.

IF MI can score 150, they win. Kiwis are not great players of spin.

So in one post you say they are stupid to play spinners instead of Corey, and in the next you admit the Kiwis cannot play spin.... Sit on the fence much?

 

[Cricket-Pundit]

NK is going to win this... MARK MY WORDS!

 

[Electron]

Boult looks so threatening.

 

[Ikball]

What if it rains? any chances???

I believe you can only play four foreigners.

Not necessarily a 81-run margin. That is just an example that was given if Mumbai scored 160.

 

[Fastandfurious]

Boult is nasty.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

No beastly Swing or Seam from The NZ Legends like in the last game

 

[GreenKnightRises]

What if it rains? any chances???

Lahore will Qualify if there is no result in this game

 

[Electron]

Well fielded

 

[Bullet Drive]

Brilliant fielding. If it was LL fielding woulda been 10 more.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Boult is WORLD CLASS.

 

[ViciousMachine]

Great start so far!! Just need a wicket or two now!!

 

[Bullet Drive]

10 off 3 overs.

Good going NZ boys.

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Need a early wicket or two or three lol

 

[Bullet Drive]

Boult has got pace, swing both ways. Is a magnificent fielder too.

 

[imshally81]

out

 

[Bullet Drive]

 

[Bullet Drive]

Yessssssss

 

[ViciousMachine]

YESSSSSSSSS!! Wicket!!!

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Outtttt

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Early wicket !

 

[Bullet Drive]

Huge wicket.

 

[Ahson8]

Yesssssss. Southeeeee.

 

[Munna]

Hussey gone. Simmons is the next key wicket here for NK

 

[Bullet Drive]

Lets get these kids out.

 

[imshally81]

what is the equation for MI

 

[Bullet Drive]

Just get Simmons now and we sorted.

Indian batsman won't be able to play our swing

Notice the 'our'

 

[Bullet Drive]

Not worried bout Pollard.

 

[Ikball]

wow, Hussy gone.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Super bowling from both.

 

[PakFan2010]

ND are a hell of a side, didn't see the match vs Lahore but they look like a well drilled outfit. Mumbai will struggle to make 140+

 

[Bullet Drive]

Poor batting team is Mumbai.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Rayudu is rubbish vs pace.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Simmons is the key wicket.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Saxena looks rubbish.

 

[Bullet Drive]

11 after 4 overs

 

[Bullet Drive]

Bowl boult one more?

 

[imshally81]

southee over junaid.. anyday

 

[Bullet Drive]

Kuggeleign... don't let us down.

 

[Bullet Drive]

He has a terrible record. Pls dont let us go.
