ICC World Cup 2023: India v New Zealand | 1st Semi Final | Mumbai | 15 November | India Innings

[shah_1]

India understand it will be difficult to bat on after 15th over. Tactical aggression in the powerplay

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Runs flowing freely. India will make 400+. GAME OVER

 

[BouncerGuy]

what an explosive start this is from India.

 

[jnaveen1980]

India understand it will be difficult to bat on after 15th over. Tactical aggression in the powerplay

Only team to score 90 plus against 3 teams in powerplay

 

[Ahmed216]

Puff of dusts already. NZ should have played sodhi

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

I'm sorry but this is going to be another heartbreak for New Zealand. Probably not what you wanted to hear but it is due to external reasons which you already know about

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Southee 134 kph. Surprise. He hardly bowls at that speed. Clocking 125 at bengaluru

because the pitch is fair and even bounced....but it wont stick between the ears of the saazish crowd

 

[jnaveen1980]

That was a superb ball from Southee. Gill was lucky

 

[emranabbas]

I'd bring on the spinners early

 

[rhony]

Southee 134 kph. Surprise. He hardly bowls at that speed. Clocking 125 at bengaluru

And Boult was bowling pies there too at 129 kph

 

[viking2559]

Why are neutral people even bothering to watch this farce.
It's rigged everything is rigged.
It would be so so unfortunate if India wins the World Cup.
India has made mockery of cricket.

 

[globetrotter]

Explosive start by india

 

[jnaveen1980]

And Boult was bowling pies there too at 129 kph

Yes. Boult can clock 140kph when he wants to

 

[jnaveen1980]

On cue 140.8 kph

 

[mominsaigol]

Now you guys know why X factors are important

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Yes. Boult can clock 140kph when he wants to

and it is possible when the pitch is even bounced and quick...much to the surprise of the conspiracy theories and a particular country's fertile media

 

[rhony]

What a shot!!!

 

[jnaveen1980]

Now you guys know why X factors are important

They are living in a parallel world lol

 

[dravidthewall]

what a shot rohit six

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Boult murdered for six.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Sharma

 

[Abhilash93]

Rohits bat is rigged. There is a spring in his bat.

 

[dravidthewall]

RAOHIT HITS SIX TO BOULT

 

[sweep_shot]

Explosive start from India.

IND - 25/0 (2.5 overs).

 

[jnaveen1980]

Boult is cranking up

 

[BouncerGuy]

2 legends from 2 different sports are in the house to watch the India vs New Zeland Semi final.

 

[7sins]

Nz already following the script

View attachment 139123

They probably thought England would be paying this semi

 

[Ahmed216]

How many times have we already heard from commnetators this is very dry surface and this is best time to bat.
Don't remember any of this in previous Mumbai games

 

[jnaveen1980]

They have a short cover for Gill. Unusual position

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Nz already following the script

Script designed by a particular country's fertile imaginative media which displayed its 'talents' since when the WC started

 

[mominsaigol]

I boycott the World Cup

Every self respecting individual person should as well

Sport shouldn't be fixed UNLIKE this World cup

The Uganda comment didn't age well now did it?

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Meanwhile, awesome drone shots of the Marine Drive ...WOW...will get even better at night..

 

[viking2559]

India can and will never win any tournament outside of India.

 

[7sins]

Lol going 10 an over nz choking

 

[rhony]

Good start by India. Enjoy the game guys. Off to bed

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Player of the series 'Rohit Sharma'. What a player he is.

 

[sweep_shot]

Kiwi bowling is looking toothless. Need to get some wickets to pull things back.

IND - 38/0 (3.5 overs).

 

[shah_1]

India is the best team in the world

Stop moaning. Enjoy greatness, love this batting.

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

@Aman Should I continue watching this as a neutral in the hope of a game or shall I carry on with other business?

 

[7sins]

India is the best team in the world

Stop moaning. Enjoy greatness, love this batting.

They the best team in the world who still needs helping by changing pitches

 

[Abhilash93]

This start reminds me of the 2003 World Cup match at Centurion!

 

[Swashbuckler]

Why are some people having such a meltdown? This is the 4th over of a 100 overs game, keep more faith in your team.

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Southee is such a overrated cricketer. Henry is far better than him.

 

[JAV12341]

Lol I told everyone India will win this World Cup easily no one listened it’s going to be a annihilation Rohit will score a big hundred today alongside Kohli

 

[Galla]

Rohit>Kohli

 

[7sins]

Why are some Pakistani posters having such a meltdown? This is the 4th over of a 100 overs game, keep more faith in your team.

We have no faith left after rigged pitch

 

[sweep_shot]

Another six. 3rd six from Rohit.

He is on a roll.

 

[Swashbuckler]

We have no faith left after rigged pitch

Wait for both innings at least.

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Shaheen faced lot of criticism in this world, but the biggest disappointment has been Trent Boult in this tournament.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Rohit bhai

 

[7sins]

Shaheen faced lot of criticism in this world, but the biggest disappointment has been Trent Boult in this tournament.

He is already half retired his priority is t20 leagues not nz

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Rohit>Kohli

Rohit in white ball > Kholi+Tendulkar

 

[Cover Drive Six]

This is the time to score quickly; the pitch will slow down after a few overs.

 

[sweep_shot]

India is running away with the game. Need to introduce Santner and Lockie.

 

[Ahmed216]

I thought Mumbai was a bouncy pitch and helped seamers early on

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

He is already half retired his priority is t20 leagues not nz

He should not be in national team then. Half hearted players don't have passion to do good for nation.

 

[sweep_shot]

Rohit>Kohli

It is only true for this tournament.

Overall, Kohli has achieved more in white ball cricket.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Shaheen faced lot of criticism in this world, but the biggest disappointment has been Trent Boult in this tournament.

Something wrong with his grip. Watching his T20 performances recently i thought he would be the star. May be T20 lengths don't work in ODI

 

[Cover Drive Six]

There is no swing; the ball is coming nicely onto the bat.
Southee is struggling with the length and Boult is not able to generate the swing.

 

[Galla]

Rohit in white ball > Kholi+Tendulkar

Agree would be great if some young pakistani batter idolizes him and tries to play like him

 

[sweep_shot]

IND - 47/0 (5 overs).

Feels like a T20.

 

[Galla]

It is only true for this tournament.

Overall, Kohli has achieved more in white ball cricket.

Nah bro over the last 5 years rohit has had way more impact

 

[jnaveen1980]

I had Boult in fantasy team in every NZ match for a while. But he kept disappointing me

 

[mominsaigol]

Rohit in white ball > Kholi+Tendulkar

On Indian pitches only.

He's good in other pitches but kohli is > worldwide.

But rohit is am atg and on Indian pitches he's a freak

 

[7sins]

Game is already over time to sleep now it's useless to watch this game. Hopefully ICC will have the guts to provide a pitch they will decide themselves

 

[RamLakhan]

How can an used slow pitch generate so much bounce? Rohit hits a tough 6 pulling... In the evening maybe Siraj bowls with the same bounce and gets someone caught behind...

Still its not about the skills, its all about rigging...

 

[shah_1]

Love you BOOM BOOM Rohit LALA

 

[mominsaigol]

I had Boult in fantasy team in every NZ match for a while. But he kept disappointing me

I chose Indian 11 for this game

 

[Galla]

On Indian pitches only.

He's good in other pitches but kohli is > worldwide.

But rohit is am atg and on Indian pitches he's a freak

remind me where the 2019 WC was?

 

[sweep_shot]

50 is up.

 

[viking2559]

New Zealand players want their IPL contracts intact.They are clearly underperforming.

India won't win any tournament outside of India.

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Get some overs in from Rachin bhai!!!

 

[Ahmed216]

Spinner in 5th over in Mumbai Truly deserves a boycott this remainder of the WC @saqib.rai
Goodbye guys

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Agree would be great if some young pakistani batter idolizes him and tries to play like him

Rohit had played over 50 matches before they realised he should open the innings after non stop failures in middle order. They have an eye for talent, Pak have eye for an agendas.

 

[sweep_shot]

Four. Six.

Even Santner is getting hit.

 

[7sins]

India going for 370+

 

[Cover Drive Six]

400 on cards
Hitman on fire

 

[BouncerGuy]

India is smashing kiwis here. 50 up in just 5 overs...

 

[7sins]

N9t india only rohit
