What the hell has happend with wicket?

Recap of Champions trophy semi-final inning.

 

[uberkoen]

Kiwi friends?...��....on a serious note...I hope they restrict England to a respectable total that they can chase.

Yes, Kiwi Pakistani bhai bhai

 

[ARK Rafay]

I’m labhiiinggggggg it

Labay Sheri Jaisa Lag Reia Hai

 

[zamana]

Stokes OUT. the game is on. NZ have very effectively started to restrict England, who might not exceed 300. The game is on. Hoping for a NZ victory!

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Santer deserves one more wicket

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Na mera bhai ........ jaan pe bani hui hai.

 

[uberkoen]

Sorry I'm haven't been watching it..
So its slowed down so much?

Not really england is choking.

It is slowing down for sure.

 

[pillionrider]

If only NZ had bowled better upfront, but credit to Roy and Bairstow.

Good game so far.

They're fantastic players. When they were going vs our spinners the other day, it looked impossible to find a wicket.

 

[JaDed]

Its becoming harder to predict pitches now, lot of it is coming on application of Batsmen and Bowlers

 

[pillionrider]

Much as I love Nasser, his lower tone now is too

[JaDed]

They're fantastic players. When they were going vs our spinners the other day, it looked impossible to find a wicket.

Also looked impossible to decide caught behind as wide

 

[Aman]

It is slowing down for sure.

So now we're getting pitches decide results? Flat first 40 overs and slow down and kill the chase?

 

[Osman]

Is this stem of runs because of the pitch or is it just England? If pitch is deteriorating that isn’t good news.

They huffed and puffed to chase 200 something against BD.

 

[RehanG]

Pitch is getting worse, how Will kiwi’s bat ..

 

[zamana]

NZ would be favorites if they can keep to 280. May just happen.
Did the pitch suddenly change or the teams are playing a different game?

 

[Aman]

Damn, this pitch has slowed up.

No chance we're chasing this.

 

[uberkoen]

So now we're getting pitches decide results? Flat first 40 overs and slow down and kill the chase?

Have you been watching the world cup at all? That is literally what has been happening

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

everyday is a new day .........

 

[Cricket lover 27]

Too many extra runs being given by NZ.

 

[uberkoen]

Is this stem of runs because of the pitch or is it just England? If pitch is deteriorating that isn’t good news.

Pitch

 

[cricketbadshah]

Nz giving extras........................

 

[ARK Rafay]

The moment I started to support england ,newzealand bowlers started to get wickets, Lol.

It's the Pakistani fans curse lol

 

[IMMY69]

It is slowing down for sure.

I suppose balls are getting older too and the sun is baking down on the wicket.

Still I would take 290 to 315 over 350 to 375

 

[Rana]

Damn, this pitch has slowed up.

No chance we're chasing this.

Calm down, New Zealand are bowling well

 

[uberkoen]

everyday is a new day .........

wow. What insight! How did you come to that conclusion?

 

[Aman]

Have you been watching the world cup at all? That is literally what has been happening

Second innings here are too early in the morning.

Only time I saw it really happen was in the Aus-NZ game and Aus tanked in the first innings.

 

[HitWicket]

Damn, this pitch has slowed up.

No chance we're chasing this.

The harder newer balls will assist early on. Just can't leave too much too late.

 

[Aman]

Damn, the way England has collapsed has me worried for us.

We crumbled just like this against Aus after having a solid base.

 

[Mehndi155]

We r doomed pitch is getting slower

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

got it ........

 

[shah_1]

England can declare right now and NZ still won't chase this

 

[zamana]

NZ will need a quick start with Guptill against the new ball.
Woakes OUT!
What a turnaround.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

Mauja mauja

 

[IMMY69]

This also shows why the toss is so important.
Crazy how just a toss of a coin can have such a massive impact on a game

 

[cricketbadshah]

 

[Tapeballcricket]

Bottling it in style!

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Keep them to 280

 

[Sirris]

Broz can we start gettubg excited now or is the pitch difficult to bat on?

 

[Ghazinator1313]

Kainu or Neeshoo jitwaa deinge bhaio, worry not

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

just a common observation ....... please dont kill my optimism with funny sarcasm.

 

[pillionrider]

Broz can we start gettubg excited now or is the pitch difficult to bat on?

Think it's more like the later stages of each innings gets harder, the older the ball gets.

 

[Sirris]

Damn, the way England has collapsed has me worried for us.

We crumbled just like this against Aus after having a solid base.

Get your act together kiwis, you can do this!

Pak-Kiwi friendship Zindabad!

 

[cricketbadshah]

England helping out Pakistan team

 

[uberkoen]

Neesham has been brilliant

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Neeshu neeshz neeshu

<3 <3 <3

 

[Rana]

We r doomed pitch is getting slower

Guys calm down there is a thing known as heavy roller

 

[IAJ]

It’s absolutely vital for Pakistan, I mean Kiwis to get off to a flying start and score the bulk of runs before the 30th over.

 

[rollingstoned]

In every match that I can remember finishing has been a big problem after a good start. 290 would be a good score here.

 

[cricketbadshah]

290 is the final target.....

 

[uberkoen]

290 is the final target.....

Too much. Need to finish them off at around 275/280

 

[sunny85]

Slow dead pitches . It's becoming a trend now.
Teams having Dibly Dubly bowlers and knuckle bowl will have better prospects. Stoinis and Courter Nile. Neesham and Grandhome. Woakes and Plunkett. Mustafizur showed it yesterday. Saw that why Dhoni and Jadhav struggled in late stages.
Certainly not India and Pakistan have that type of attack. Aamir to a bit.

People like Bumrah, Wahab, Afridi, Shami, Wood and Cummins will struggle.

 

[Leeon1994]

Nice no. 2 ICC Ranking cannot even bowl in death overs properly.

 

[JibranAnsari]

boult bowling rubbish

 

[saabir]

The way Morgan is treating Bolt pitch is not that bad

 

[cricketbadshah]

Too much. Need to finish them off at around 275/280

271 is already on the board

 

[uberkoen]

271 is already on the board

I don't care. Either finish this off at 275/280 or forget about it

 

[Usman Chadda]

Boult )

 

[cricketbadshah]

ek over ne khel kharab kr dia

 

[Nov15]

Poms choked!

 

[zamana]

What a catch! Morgan out.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

What a catch..

 

[kingusama92]

Fantastic catch.

 

[Sirris]

NZ on fire &#55357;&#56613; &#55357;&#56613; &#55357;&#56613;

 

[JaDed]

Frankly historically ......... india does better against us if it is not finals.

We won two finals 1985 and 2007 lost one..

 

[IMMY69]

So it seems the slower bowlers are harder to get away...
Just as well England have four quickies in their line up...

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Come on boyzzzz

 

[cricketbadshah]

I don't care. Either finish this off at 275/280 or forget about it

No matter if pak reach the semi-final or not but Sarfaraz should remain the captain. This team only play better under him.

 

[rhony]

Eng imploding guys. New ball is key and Guptill should click

 

[Sirris]

Guptil and Williamson to score a 100

 

[cricketbadshah]

Chalo ab pak ko apna last match jeetne pr focus karna chahiye. This match is now for nz to loose.

 

[Pk716]

Eng is lucky to win the toss and southee playing in place of ferguson.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Come on it is not a bad total at alll ........ it is still a total england can back themselves with.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

last three crucial overs ............

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

at the start it looked a done and dusted game for nz ....... now it like nz caan win but they perform really well. that it .......

 

[Aman]

Don't get your hopes up, this looks similar to the Aus game except it wasn't easy to bat early on like here.

Expecting NZ to get out for 180-220.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

come on boult ......

 

[Leeon1994]

ICC No. 2 bowler boult

 

[USaqaf]

Comon A Rasheed do Pakistan a solid and play tuk tuk ...so spaketh A Razzaq.
