Ryder's placeholder has done a tremendous job as opener for NZ on this tour :19:

Giving middle and lower order batsmen a lot of chance through his quick dismissal match after match :14:
 
Kiwi,

Why did you import this guy? Even you, an Indian, would bat better than him.

:))) Funny batting style, close your eyes and swing away.

Never raise such questions.

Don't you know Ronchi is there as a placeholder till Ryder gets back to serious cricket.

All is well for opposition when hack like Ronchi opens for Kiwis :))
 
The dangerous Guptill is gone so now it's all upto skipper...
 
Broadcasters, are you watching the ball? Please take close-up shots of all the fielder's fingers, when they have the ball.

If possible try reading a thread here in PP on Ronchi and my comments about his technique or lack of it and how I was quickly ridiculed by a certain Kiwi supporter for raising question against this hack masquerading as Batsmen :))

First time seeing him bat, my technique is better than his. Should apply for a NZ visa :)
 
almost missed the stump very risky leave by williamson...
 
Kiwi...I thought English guys will give you a tough time in this thread but i was totally wrong indians are giving you a more tough time here in the thread...

No one is trying to give anyone a tough time. If you had read our (Myself and Kiwi) previous discussion on this topic then you will understand where I am coming from :)

I was listening to you guys having fun...
 
What's the situation with the semi spots here? If England win they are through? What about Sri Lanka and Australia?
 
even if NZ lose today they can qualify for semi if Aussies win tomorrow because NZ got a NRR of +1 and Aussies got -0.9 so it will be hard for Aussies...
 
3 of my Fantasy league players got out for very low scores today (Morgan, Guptil and Taylor). I was already on downward slide since WI-SA tie, gonna end up way below in rankings tonight :(
 
Bopara to bowl now pressure should be released from NZ...

What's your team name? and how many mods you got?
 
Fantastic bowling from England.

I'll also add that New Zealand is one of the worst teams that I've seen at using the review.
Back leg knocking middle out, and he reviews. :)))

Sneaky Mafia - I think I have around 30+ mods remaining (Anyhow my rank was beyond top 50 already, expecting not much to change tonight unless Jimmy gets a fiver or so)

Well you can still make it because most of the top ranked guys have none or only a few mods left...

Kiwi,

This is so depressing, I am gonna start on 'The Lost Fleet,' a SF.

All the best man though not confident of NZ win here.
 
WOW India top of the list in successful DRS all of their 3 reviews were successful in this CT and still they dont want it...

I think it was your cricketing expertise that said we scored too slowly against the new ball.

lol.
 
so if rain gets heavier their is no more time to expand and NZ didn't played 20 overs yet...
 
Would be an injustice if England don't get the chance to close out their victory.

Hidden Ninjaa..Englishman, I'm still here.

169 against any top team is too low, fortunately you are playing NZ, wait till its over.

@avidlearner,

You play fantasy in this too? Oh man where do you find time :) Any all the best. Signing off.

@Webguru,

The goal is not the NZ win, the goal is Eng loss :)
 
Either we bowl them out, or the time taken up by people walking back and forth for wickets slow the game down enough for rain to appear.
 
This is going to be a thrashing as long as the rain doesn't arrive. NZ aren't good enough in these conditions.
 
@senman - Playing Fantasy league mostly from mobile phone these days and team changes are pretty much straight forward and in fact slightly better than espn's :)
 
Rain is on the Kiwi side, half hour is a long time.

England bowling has been brilliant.

Are the prizes same as on Espn?
 
Kiwi run rate screams up to 4.2 per over. Worrying times.
 
Our bowling has been mostly good. But batting has been consistently terrible. We would have even lost against the Ozzies. Pwnage beckons us.
 
Kiwi man 2 wickets to bopara? you guys want to make sure he stay in the eng team...

Another walk back and walk in. The NZ batsmen coming in will surely dawdle.

Apologies in advance for the off-topic Mods - Nope. ESPN's is same as it was during IPL. Macbook pro, Ipad 2, Ipad Mini etc (only top 3 gets it) with daily gift vouchers worth 10k from flipkart.
