[desi_launda]

Kiwis must avoid a traditional batting collapse

 

[cricket geek]

new Zealand messing up in the small chase.

 

[Justcrazy]

A solid partnership is required , run rate is under control

 

[Nikhil_cric]

NZ have taken on the chokers tag?

 

[MRSN]

good shot underpressure.

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

23 / 2 after 5 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

No dew so far , advantage for spinners

 

[mosh101]

What a pathetic shot by brendo !

Big pressure now on this batting pair !

 

[MRSN]

that was plumb..

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Lol where is aman? He was claiming that nz struggle only against mystery spin.

 

[Donal Cozzie]

NZ choking big time

 

[Justcrazy]

Kiwis need to just knock herath for singles here

 

[mosh101]

LOL bday boy gone

 

[MRSN]

gone this time. NZ taking too much pressure or conditions are too good for bowlers?

 

[s.h.a.k]

Lovely bowling by Herath. Game on.

 

[desi_launda]

kiwis have decided to choke
4 :

 

[mosh101]

NZ going down fast

 

[Justcrazy]

[Dragon]

NZ choking

 

[mosh101]

Not going to get lucky 2nd time around Mr Ross

 

[Justcrazy]

97 more required

Kiwis choking badly here

 

[mithun_minhas]

LOL @ Kiwis.

Clueless against spin in subcontinent.

Same old story.

Ross T was like a deer caught in headlights.

 

[zabalestmsm]

Rubbish approach from Taylor. Y not use his feet

 

[iRfaN_LA]

NZ need to play some shots.

 

[Dragon]

Bold

 

[mosh101]

Neesham bowled first ball !

NZ gone for all money

 

[Poison]

) Hobbits being absolutely destroyed

 

[Donal Cozzie]

Herath 3 wickets two overs no runs!!!!

 

[zabalestmsm]

They r useless against quality spin

 

[Electron]

Hahahaha... what a match

 

[MRSN]

bowled.

feel sorry for Kiwi fans. This pitch is too good for spinners.

 

[iRfaN_LA]

goodness. NZ in tatters. 4 down.

 

[Dragon]

Lankan Ajmal doing the magic

 

[whatthewhat]

NZ has filled the quota for the tournament choke, India will be out of the tournament now, SA wont choke!

 

[MRSN]

Herath 3 wickets two overs no runs!!!!

) unbelievable.

 

[leatherface58]

Told you wasnt gonna be easy.

 

[Justcrazy]

23 / 4

6 overs

 

[Silly Point]

Choking big time.

 

[mosh101]

Get that hattrick herathhhh

 

[GreenKnightRises]

What a Facepalm

 

[BlackThunder]

Kiwi's are perennial chokers specially in SC expect Lanka to defend this.

 

[Dragon]

Good pitch for bowlers

 

[mithun_minhas]

Pak losing on a golden opportunity to destroy Kiwis in Semis.

Imagine what Babar, Ajmal and Afridi would do to this patheitc Kiwi batting.

Now Pak has to play Lankans in Semis.

 

[Justcrazy]

No Malinga would be lethal

 

[mosh101]

Just take a look at herath's figures !

Stunning !

 

[Arsal_AK]

Herath on fire....

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Can't buy a rin against herath. NZ exposed.

 

[96NotOut]

Someone check Herath's figures... 3/0 after 2 overs. 3 freaking wickets for no runs! 12 dots in a T20, and he's now on a hat-trick.

 

[Impala_KaifTamasha]

SL really putting the squeeze on NZ. They should take this easily.

 

[Nuekboi]

NZ batting like schoolchildren against Herath

 

[Mp812]

A double-strike and NZ are effectively 23 for 5. No Anderson remember

 

[mosh101]

With corey not coming out to bat, NZ stand absolutely no chance !

 

[desi_launda]

Kiwis must avoid a traditional batting collapse

knew it
5 down with anderson injured

 

[Justcrazy]

Pak losing on a golden opportunity to destroy Kiwis in Semis.

Imagine what Babar, Ajmal and Afridi would do to this patheitc Kiwi batting.

Now Pak has to play Lankans in Semis.

Does not always happen like that, cricket is funny game.

 

[Justcrazy]

Required rate above 7

 

[Dragon]

NZ looks helpless in front of spin

 

[iRfaN_LA]

last two batsmen on crease.

 

[desi_launda]

williamson their only hope

 

[mithun_minhas]

One more wicket here, Kiwis can go back home..

Time to bring in more spinners.

Malinga is not the best option here.

 

[whatthewhat]

NZ just needs a 50 partnership here, they can still win this

 

[Silly Point]

C'mon NZ. I've see enough of SL.

 

[Dragon]

More wickets coming in spin over?

 

[Justcrazy]

I think Dilshan should bowl a few overs here

 

[MRSN]

28/4
overs 7

 

[Asif321]

What a deadly spell by Rangu

 

[Buffet]

NZ needs to just to put one partnership and game will be over. No pressure with runs and required run rate here.

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Malinga is easier to play than herath.

 

[Justcrazy]

NZ beat us in champs trophy SF few years back

**** happens... but still would have preferred to face NZ if Pak go through

If pakistan want to win the Cup , they need to beat best in the business.

 

[Sakss]

Wow Herath. Magical spell so far

 

[MRSN]

N McCullum can bat..but these two needs to see off Herath..

 

[desi_launda]

herath is a very underrated bowler
good clean action..classical spinner

 

[Justcrazy]

Herath on a hat-trick

 

[Dragon]

Scary bowling

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Please smash this guy.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Williamson seems to be the only batsmen capable of playing spin.

 

[mosh101]

One good partnership can still do it for the kiwis

 

[in_cutter]

Pak losing on a golden opportunity to destroy Kiwis in Semis.

Imagine what Babar, Ajmal and Afridi would do to this patheitc Kiwi batting.

Now Pak has to play Lankans in Semis.

We need to beat WI first?

 

[whatthewhat]

Not a great time to be a Pakistani, two scenarios here:

1. Pak loses to Sri in the semis and India go on to win the WC
2. Pak wins against Sri in the semis and India thrashes them in the final again.


WTH!!!

 

[Dragon]

Gone
