India v New Zealand | T20 WC | Group E | Johannesburg | 16/9/07

[12thMan]

a six to end the over. 20 runs off the over

 

[shahidrazzaq]

Wow..Gambhir and Sewhag controlling game. All NZ needs is to get 2 or 3 wickets. India can win....with their runrate above 12...its seems almost impossible to lose unless some wickets start falling.

 

[MIB]

India: 67/0 (5.0 Ovs)

 

[Rob H]

Gambhir joins in smashing Oran straight for 4 off the full toss. 71/0 now off 5.1!

 

[swaziboy]

a foolish move by the nz skpper to bring on the spinner inside the 6 overs
flemming would never have done that if he was captian
sehwag got 20 of this last over

 

[ali kc]

Yeah Come on some wickets NZ!

 

[dirk diggler]

nothing like crap bowling to giv sehwag some confidence

 

[kablooee87]

This is an absolute massacre.

76/0 after 5.3

 

[12thMan]

Can Sehwag get the fastest 50? he has 4 balls and 10 runs to get

 

[shahidrazzaq]

GOD! Sewhag off to getting his first half-century probly...Alright, if Sewhag and Gambhir dont get out before the 9th over NZ are doomed. By the runrate, by 9 overs they'll have 100...So thats why they must concentrate on fielding. Give a bouncer to Sehwag, he flick it to the side behind the wicket and if someone is in the correct spot, they can get him.

 

[swaziboy]

sehwag out ct and short mid wicket

 

[kablooee87]

Sehwag gone. That HAD to happen if NZ had any chance.

 

[iZeeshan]

Nightmare stuff from Sehwag and Gambster! 76 now after just 5 and a half overs!

 

[12thMan]

Sehwag out on 40 off 17
Ind 76-1 after 5.5

 

[ali kc]

sehwag gone!!!

 

[shahidrazzaq]

10 runs....theres a 79% he'll get it. He can smack a six and another one in the next two balls!

 

[shahidrazzaq]

Gone! Sewhag Strike Out!

 

[iZeeshan]

GOD! Sewhag off to getting his first half-century probly...Alright, if Sewhag and Gambhir dont get out before the 9th over NZ are doomed. By the runrate, by 9 overs they'll have 100...So thats why they must concentrate on fielding. Give a bouncer to Sehwag, he flick it to the side behind the wicket and if someone is in the correct spot, they can get him.

Spoke too soon...

[MIB]

[kablooee87]

[kablooee87]

83/2 after 8

 

[Hash]

good fightback by us here

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Bond has been brought back to break the back

 

[kablooee87]

Bond is back. This is a crucial over. Need Dhoni's wicket.

 

[kablooee87]

India: 88/2 (8.4 Ovs)

 

[12thMan]

Ind 90-2 after 9 - need 101 from 66 balls

 

[kablooee87]

Bond couldn't get a wicket that over. He has one more left.

 

[PlanetPakistan]

well i would say it's dead even here! Styris comes in to bowl and just to let you folks know that he is the captain of my fantasy team

 

[kablooee87]

India: 94/2 (9.4 Ovs)

single off every ball this over so far.

 

[kablooee87]

6 off that Styris over.

95 needed off the last ten. Exact run rate the needed to begin with.

 

[kablooee87]

The Indian RR dips below the required rate for the first time....only for 1 ball though! SIX

 

[12thMan]

Ghambir hits a six and gets to 50 off 31 balls

 

[MIB]

Vettori to Gambhir, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

 

[tauseefm]

Gambhir goneeeeeeee..

 

[kablooee87]

And then Ghambir goes!

Vetorri gets em.
104/3

 

[Hash]

Gumboo goes

huge wicket

 

[Hari Sombar]

Yuvi in and off the mark straight away

 

[kablooee87]

If India are going to win this match, it'll be because of one of the two batsman at the crease now. Dhoni and Yuvraj batting now.

105/3 11.0 overs/

 

[12thMan]

Ind 105-3 after 11 overs - need 86 from 54 balls

 

[tauseefm]

Yuvraj and Dhoni, this is the only combination who can take india to victory stand.

 

[swaziboy]

NZ seem to have put on the brakes on india

 

[kablooee87]

Required rate goes above 10 for the first time.

 

[Hash]

We have done very well since getting Auntie Veru out.

RRR now over 10 per over.

 

[12thMan]

India 110-3 after 12 - need 81 from 48 balls @ 10.1 an over

 

[kablooee87]

India on Nelson. Wicket fell here against Pakistan....

 

[shahidrazzaq]

Link plz!!!!!

 

[kablooee87]

......Dhoni with a 4

 

[tauseefm]

yuvraj goneeeeeeeee .. this target is looking very hard for india now

 

[Hash]

Yuvi Patungi goes

 

[12thMan]

Yuvi out
Ind 116-4 after 12.4

 

[swaziboy]

NZ seem to be tightening the screws with another wicket
i think its going to betough now

 

[kablooee87]

Yuvraj Gone!!!

 

[kablooee87]

India have plenty of batting. With only 7 overs left in the Innings they can still use Dhoni, Karthik, and Pathan.

It's the RR that will count now. Only that can bring the wickets.

 

[stevewittry]

Outcome is obvious now. Anywayz good fight, India.

 

[kablooee87]

at this point NZ had 94 run. But this is where they turned it on.

 

[12thMan]

what a sign there - "Dhoni Dho Dala"
is he a dhobi?

 

[tauseefm]

Outcome is obvious now. Anywayz good fight, India.

well, i still think its 50/50

 

[shahidrazzaq]

dangit...CAN SOMEONE GIMME LINK???

 

[stevewittry]

New Zealand ...clear favourites. Anything otherwise would be an upset.

 

[swaziboy]

another one goes

dhoni runout

looks like fielding making all the difference

 

[kablooee87]

Styris has gotten 1 over too many. 2 4s in this over so far. 2 balls to come.

 

[tauseefm]

Dhoni run out.. i think its over now..lol

 

[PlanetPakistan]

2 fours off this over so far

 

[12thMan]

Ind 128-5

 

[dirk diggler]
