ICC T20 World Cup 2022 | Semi-final 1 - SCG | New Zealand post a competitive score (152/4)

[Kianig89]

6/1 Pakistan off to a good start need to get wickets regularly

 

[asadee]

Should have tried Ifti vs Conway just to surprise him

 

[Ashmal]

I thought he was on BCCI payroll to screw Pakistan?

He's just incompetent.

That first decision of Allen was a shocker.

 

[ex-q-zit]

Please don't get Kane out. Let him play till 20th over

He has a 4th gear. So be careful what you wish for.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Last two balls on the bounce to rizwan

 

[IAJ]

Should avoid to ball towards the shorter boundaries

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Beautiful line Nas!

 

[shamaan]

No Carry at all

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Great ball, nicely beaten.

 

[Gullycricket]

Aap bleck ho na Naseem

 

[Kianig89]

Keep them under pressure

 

[Slim]

Come on LADS! :

 

[RexRex]

I expect kiwis to get around 150.

 

[JibranAnsari]

5.66 er naseem shah in this tournament

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Brilliant pick up

 

[Gullycricket]

Seriously this Pak team is brilliant now with Wasim Jr and Haris. Only if the so called No 1 duo fires up

 

[Ahmed216]

Fresh pitch or used?

 

[Major]

pitch not pacy

 

[IAJ]

Nahi yaar

 

[rhony]

That's the problem with sloggers. They can handle pace but not swing.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

3 dot ball, so far so good.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Oh my!

 

[JibranAnsari]

Conway is the real dangerman

 

[Ashmal]

Fresh pitch or used?

Used

 

[IAJ]

ohhhhh almost

 

[shamaan]

Lucky Conway

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Almost a wicket.

 

[mrtaim3]

pitch not pacy

Should be good for us.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Devon holding no bars

 

[imshally81]

2 boundaries in Naseem over

 

[IAJ]

and now hits second boundary

 

[rhony]

How did that miss the stumps lol. What drama

 

[Major]

Used

fresh

indian game is gonna be used

 

[boomboomcheema]

Runs continue to flow. Not good.

 

[Kianig89]

14/1 NZ back on track

 

[RexRex]

Pitch is very poor, likely used.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

2 fours of the over and pretty good over ruined.

 

[ex-q-zit]

fresh

indian game is gonna be used

Its teh same pitch as the NZ vs AUS game.

 

[Gullycricket]

Bring Nawaz early and use Chacha too. Pace is not good on this wicket. Have to use more cutters and slowes

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Conway and Philips early then it's our game

 

[Ashmal]

fresh

indian game is gonna be used

This is also a used wicket...the commies mentioned it

 

[rhony]

No carry. Not much pace in the pitch. Doesn't look like an easy batting wicket. Swing and change of pace, spin are the key.

 

[mrtaim3]

Small boundaries one side of the ground

 

[7sins]

Pitch is very poor, likely used.

it will be difficult to bat in 2nd innings need to restrict nz here

 

[imshally81]

Outfield is slow

 

[Firebat]

Outfield seems quick though.

 

[Major]

NZ is gonna attack no mtter what, this can be a 180 game

 

[boomboomcheema]

Runs not stopping.. kiwis looking very positive.

 

[Colorblind Genius]

weird bounce in the pitch .... one of Shaheen's and one of Naseem's ball pitched before reaching the keeper...

 

[JibranAnsari]

Needs to find a good length

 

[Gullycricket]

NZ is gonna attack no mtter what, this can be a 180 game

Think they will get strangled by spin

 

[rhony]

NZ is gonna attack no mtter what, this can be a 180 game

140 to 150 is a good score on a slow pitch

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Need to peg the RR, NZ way too comfortable.

 

[Major]

afridi bowlng well even with slight less pace

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Need to get Devon. Bring Nawaz on

 

[JibranAnsari]

150 will be a tough chase here.

 

[Major]

Harris Rauf is gonna be interesting here if he can extract bounce out of it

 

[Ashmal]

NZ is gonna attack no mtter what, this can be a 180 game

I think 160 will be enough to win here....slow pitch and ball not coming on the bat

 

[imshally81]

Boundaries are short.... except straight one

 

[Mamoon]

[MENTION=146948]Slim[/MENTION]

I don’t think Indians are supporting new Zealand today. New Zealand is their bogey team in tournaments and beating Pakistan twice in the same tournament, especially in the final, will give them great sadistic pleasure.

 

[IAJ]

Good SR for the batsmen, from pakistani pov

 

[Major]

Great over by Shaheen. Naseem bowl next than bring in Harris

 

[imshally81]

Good over by Afridi

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Now finish the over well, don't give a boundary

 

[boomboomcheema]

Comparatively good over.

 

[Kianig89]

Bowling change plz

 

[IAJ]

Haris Rauf comes on

 

[Saj]

Good start by Pakistani bowlers.

Fielding decent so far too.

 

[IAJ]

Williamson is a smart batsman, will use the pace

 

[Kianig89]

Pakistan need a wicket don't get them settle in

 

[imshally81]

Pretty supporting pitch for both bowlers and batsmen

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

It's simple. Pakistan need to get wkts . Unsettle the nz batting line up

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Feel they are bowling too full.

 

[Slim]

Indians hate the thought of playing Pakistan after they barely scraped a win against them due to a freak Kohli performance. They have exceeded their capability.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Need Conway's wit asap. As we know when he settles in what damage he can do

 

[Major]

idiot ground staff really.

 

[Gullycricket]

NZ are masters of this. They judge a pitch quick and play accordingly

 

[Major]

man the wicket is soo dead

 

[IAJ]

Why do people need to move just infront of batsmen?

 

[Rana]

So much Tuk Tuk
