England [305/8] defeat New Zealand [186] by 119 runs to reach Semi-finals of World Cup 2019

[IAJ]

Rasheed bhai is a free passenger in the team

 

[SportsWarrior]

What if bd make 270?
How many overs will pak have to chase it in?

Approximately in -20 overs or so. If NZ score anything more than 175 today all BD has to do to knock out Pak is to win toss and choose to bat. Even if they get all out for a single run Pak is out

 

[Snowflake]

Will say the same if they destroy aussied in Sf?

Nope. But we can talk the hypothetical all day long.

 

[Napa]

India and Australia will be licking their claws at the prospect of facing NZ in semi-final. Both teams will want NZ in semi-final.

SA could do India a huge favor by beating Aus and setting up an Ind-NZ semi

 

[Dead Ball]

Root and Rashid getting hammered.

 

[DeadlyYorker]

We are 6th ranked team and if we beat BD we will end up at 5.

I am more than happy with this. Unlike you ungrateful lot...... I will still support Pakistan team no matter what

Of course you are unable to digest this. Understood.

Unable to digest getting #5/6 spot? Bas yahi sunna tha mere bhai
Ungrateful to you? Look in the mirror

Ann have yourself thousand deaths watching india proceed to SF ,Final and holdint that cup

 

[sindhiboy]

This can only happen if BD bros help Pakistan out a bit

Bangladesha nd Pakistan are bhai bhai. Used to be one country

They should be out for 8 and not play a single shot. Bowl 5 wides and pak win without a ball bowled

 

[Thinking_Cap]

Considering how the Kiwis are chasing, India did a very decent job of chasing against England on a similar track. The Kiwis are progressively getting worse. Not having Ferguson probably made a difference too.

 

[ekpakistani]

Yes backed up by your hatred they sure will and your heart will be broken into million piecies once again just like it did in 2011

I only remember june 2017

Kohli tujhse nahi hota chase

And before that I remember Miandad hitting winning 6 against chetan sharma

And also how akhter clean bowled tendu

 

[Deewana]

Like I said before this is not icc cricket World Cup 2019 this is icc manipulated Cup 2019 the winner was predetermined yet u folks act as if u can't see what's going on for cricket to move forward as a game the icc has to be investigated as they are the most currupt sporting organisation in the world

who is gonna win it

 

[Mueez]

who is gonna win it

England.

 

[DeadlyYorker]

Nope. But we can talk the hypothetical all day long.

Thats why i dont talk about deservinf and undeserving coz you cant measure it and thats only hypothetical

In the end only teams staying in top4 goes ahead thats why i dont consider pak worthy at moment.if they had won one more game they surely woulf have been worthy with others having same points

 

[SportsWarrior]

I guess about 42-44 overs

Lol. If NZ makes 175 today all BD has to do to knock out Pak is win toss and bat first. Pak cannot make up nrr if they bat second. It is mathematically impossible

 

[BleedGreen]

Latham batting well.

201 from 166 balls

 

[DeadlyYorker]

who is gonna win it

Its like asking fakeGypses about future they couldnt know.

 

[IMMY69]

I think Pakistan can do it on NRR.

Just bowl them out for 4 and hit the runs in two Balls.

Easy peasy

 

[Titan24]

Like I said before this is not icc cricket World Cup 2019 this is icc manipulated Cup 2019 the winner was predetermined yet u folks act as if u can't see what's going on for cricket to move forward as a game the icc has to be investigated as they are the most currupt sporting organisation in the world

Its difficult to accept a betrayal by something you loved.

 

[zee-za-man]

Checked the NRR, England will allow NZ to score 240+ this match won't be over soon NZ will play 50 overs before losing

 

[B_Positive]

If NZ loses today, PPer's next job will be to pray for India loss. So that they can troll them. )

 

[Deewana]

England.

as long its not India i am cool with it
we were never gonna win it anyways

 

[Iamcoolwhiz]

Our openers actually scores. Plus we always reach par score, no matter what.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

i guess our world cup tour is gone now.

 

[Madplayer]

I am supporting England now. Come on Angraiz.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

Latham looks in good nick

 

[DeadlyYorker]

Yes present day indian cricket team is pathetic.

Thanks for understanding us.
Yours truly,
PCT

 

[sharmaji]

There is still a chance for Pakistan to make it to Semis. If NZ can bundle for less than 200, then Pak may have to out and beat BD by more than 100 runs or 7 wickets. (Not sure about the numbers yet). Wish Pak think tank had thought about the NRR in their match against Afghanistan. Loosing that badly against WI was not easy to overcome. Along with game awareness, there should be proper tournament awareness and planning from the coaching and management.

 

[Mueez]

Na kar yaar.... It happens a sport

Yaarr a group-stage exit just doesn’t sound good...

 

[DeadlyYorker]

And yet we have much superior head to head to feel happy about.

Yes you have my brother and we have king kohli

 

[B_Positive]

I feel if these two stay, NZ can still get over the line. It's not over yet guys

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

bowled

 

[NA]

Partnership of 50 runs in 8 overs. That's not bad at all, at this stage of the game.

Neesham is already in good touch, Latham is playing like he did in that epic Nzl win over England last year (chasing 338 successfully, after being 2/2)

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Lol wish not fullfilled.

I think neesham heard you man.

 

[NA]

Oh well, that's top quality jinxing.

 

[amirm]

Pakistan are out

 

[Dead Ball]

Grandhomme in now... it's gonna be entertaining for sure...

 

[FanofCricket]

Game over for nz.

 

[sharmaji]

Oh t was just an assumed estimate. Probably wrong. If what you have mentioned is the case, then Pak is most likely out of the tournament.

Lol what? If New Zealand is bowled out for 150, pak will have to beat Bangladesh by 280 runs or more. Where are you getting 100 runs from?

 

[ekpakistani]

Yaarr a group-stage exit just doesn’t sound good...

Bhai...we should be proud of it. Here's why

1. We are ranked 6/7 in odi and so ending anything above that is good

2. We were unlucky one of our match got washed out

3. Just before wc few of our players were unwell e.g. shadab getting hepa c, amir chicken pox etc

4. Some decisions went against us

I am proud of our team. They have really played well.

 

[Zeshan547]

Man it's the hope that Kills, and I guess almost All the dismissals so far are down to luck in another day all these could have gone in NZ favor, Pak just not destined to be in the Semi finals, but such a loss what ifs hurts even more. But I am still proud of my team, they did better than most expected them to.

 

[NA]

Santner and Southee can bat. If these two can reach 200, there may be an outside chance.

 

[Sunzi]

Time to lock this off PPers

I'll be back for the next tournament/series.

Salaam! Lol

 

[CanadianG00se]

Along with game awareness, there should be proper tournament awareness and planning from the coaching and management.

Wickets don’t have any relevance with regards to NRR.

The deficit(NRR) is more than 400 runs which is practically impossible to overcome in just one game. Pakistan’s only chance is that NZ lose by 150 runs and Pakistan beats BD by 300 runs or more. If BD chose to bat first against Pakistan then it’s game over.

In short, Pakistan’s hope for qualification completely relies on NZ victory over England.

 

[Rifaqat]

New Zealand i hate you

 

[ekpakistani]

At least our team didn’t had to rely on results of other team(s) in order to progress to semis.

You’re salty cause your team is on the verge of getting knocked out. I understand your pain but blaming other won’t solve the bigger problem which lies within your team.

Nope. I am proud of Pak team. We are ranked 6/7 and to end on 5 is an achievement.. Wonder why you indians can't understand this simple point?

 

[saeedhk]

NZ semi final will be one sided. I thought NZ was a good team.

 

[Deewana]

this is so painful
a Washout has knocked us out of the wc

 

[DRsohail]

Why are you more deserving than new Zealand?

We have played better cricket overall.

 

[SportsWarrior]

Mazher is the best cricket stats man. He said it well before the game, that the only way for Pak to qualify is if NZ wins. Relying on NRR is pointless. It's almost impossible to qualify on NRR

anyone with basic math skills knew that. you don't have to be a cricket stats man for that. It is simple math

 

[tyron_woodley]

it's so sad to see my brothers not in the semis. This is a disgrace. N.z don't deserve to be in semis. pakistam should be in there 100%. Is there any way to make it? does n.z have to score 175 to make their run rate sufficient enough for qualification to the semis?

 

[FanofCricket]

Here Comes world class alrounder Colin de grandhomme

 

[BaaliSoda]

As the business end of the tournament got closer, NZ looked to have lost all the steam that they gathered from the earlier games. Facing tougher opponents didn't help their cause either.

In many ways (to me), they resemble Indian team wherein the batting is heavily relied on two batsmen while bowling looks more than decent.

At the moment, it appears Australia is most likely to face NZ in the semis (unless SA have other plans in their last game).

Yet another finals spot at World cup for Australia looks very much a possibility.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

If NZ get bowled out for 200 then by wha margin should Pak win against BDesh?

 

[Slog]

If NZ get bowled out for 200 then by wha margin should Pak win against BDesh?

Number of overs they take to get out matters more than runs I think?

 

[Leeon1994]

England, New Zealand and India all collaborated against Pakistan to not leave any chances

 

[Jeetlodil]

If NZ get bowled out for 200 then by wha margin should Pak win against BDesh?

330 runs. So if Ban make 300 then pak has to chase in 24 overs

 

[pakistanisgreat]

congratulations England

 

[FanofCricket]

this is so painful
a Washout has knocked us out of the wc

A wash out has given us a world cup in 1992 as well. So it's fair and square.

 

[Mueez]

Bhai...we should be proud of it. Here's why

1. We are ranked 6/7 in odi and so ending anything above that is good

I will always be proud of my team, no matter what.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

330 runs. So if Ban make 300 then pak has to chase in 24 overs

Doable. Required gayle like inngs off 175

Good to see you are back. Missed you on June 16th

 

[SM1989]

this is so painful

Nope the atrocious first match has knocked us out.

 

[FanofCricket]

Seems like aus will take their 6th title they will beat nz in semis and they are impossible to be beaten in final regardless of ind or eng.

 

[BleedGreen]

178 from 132 come on NZ!

 

[Dead Ball]

Can Latham-Grandhomme pull off a Yuvraj-Kaif?

 

[B_Positive]

I am still positive, nz to win

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

 

[FanofCricket]

Nope the atrocious first match has knocked us out.

If we had won against WI we would have surely lost against England. Because of that defeat pak came back strong against England.

 

[SportsWarrior]

If Taylor was Indian, and this was the Ind-Eng game, there would be twenty threads by now about how he deliberately ran himself out.

and also about how slowly NZ is batting. They have no intention of going for the target. Just playing to safeguard their run rate. BD did the same against Aus and Eng, to some extent Aus did it when they lost to India, and now NZ doing it. God forbid if India adopts the same strategy. Pak fans forget that world does not revolve around a 6th ranked team. Most teams are doing what is best for them and playing by the rules.

 

[hb787]

As much it hurts, this is India’s WC.
I hope Australia can atleast challenge them!

 

[Hitman]

Pak players better pack their bags soon.

 

[SM1989]

If we had won against WI we would have surely lost against England. Because of that defeat pak came back strong against England.

That match destroyed pak's NRR from the beginning.

 

[Leeon1994]

Yeah we still had the WI and AFG matches where we didnt do **

 

[Mamoon]

If we had won against WI we would have surely lost against England. Because of that defeat pak came back strong against England.

Which means we don’t deserve to qualify either way.

 

[Hitman]

As much it hurts, this is India’s WC.
I hope Australia can atleast challenge them!

Thanks for the laugh )

 

[DRsohail]

Pak players better pack their bags soon.

hahah but there is a game remaining.

 

[Leeon1994]

As much it hurts, this is India’s WC.
I hope Australia can atleast challenge them!

Nice joke. Going past Aus or Eng aint that easy.

 

[B_Positive]

Ha ha ha... I am sensing a heavy loss to Bangladesh vs Pak. NZ are actually helping Pakistan

 

[Gladiators]

221 from 184. Still not impossible. Come on Kiwis!

It's all over, boys.

WC 2023 Hindustan.

 

[SportsWarrior]

India and NZ are similar. Without 2 or 3 key players your team is nothing. KW and Ferguson for NZ. Kohli and Sharma for India. Australia and England (in form) are teams to beat.

England?? the same team which had everything working for it but still needs to win their last match to qualify? right.. they are good team, but certainly not better than India. They are par with India. India is paying for poor planning
