India vs New Zealand | Semi Final 1, World Cup | Old Trafford | 10th Jul, 2019 | India Innings

I am sorry if I sound saltier than usual because my account got hacked and because of this, but it is painful to see people celebrating when we exited in the group stage. It really exposed our minnow-mentality.
Your account got hacked? How?
 
Henry isnt a death bowler. Good from Williamson to bowl him out now now.

What death? He's the wicket taker today. Bowling him to get a wicket here. NZ wants to wrap it early. People are delusional of they think India can win this or even get close

I don't think India will win but it's good captaincy nonetheless .
 
Come on NZ, nail this down and get into the final for the first time.

All this is exposing is your Indian mentality. What Pakistan fan gets salty over an Indian loss?
 
How can a number 7 batsman rotate strike so easily when IPL superstars were not able to do so ?
 
After Rohit, Rahul and Kohli India didnt have a specialist batsman. They had 3 keepers and one all rounder.

That is the problem, they are playing too many bits and pieces aka Rellu Kattas in the team. India has so much batting talent, yet they select non batsmen in the team... Something Pakistan has done a lot in past, even in this WC, when playing with four allrounders (Hafeez, Malik, Immad, Shadab)...

Maybe India was pampered a lot by top 3, injury to Dhawan, exposed the selection, a bit late in the tournament.
 
Target getting close to Ind vs Eng game levels. Let's see what Dhoni does now

No idea. I couldn’t login in the morning and someone had opened a thread on TP with my ID, apologizing for my comments on Pakistan.

Thankfully MenInG was able to restore my account and blocked the hacker’s IP.
 
I feel india has a chance if they can get it under 80 runs

Oh that’s a shame.

Why would anybody do this?

Everyone has the right to have his own opinion.

True but Dhawan can't play swing either. The top 3 Indian Batsmen are very goos, better than English but two of them dont play tests. They can be beats on typical ODI wickets but a pitch like this is always going to be difficult for Rohit and Dhawan. Kohli had the talent to bat beyond 10 overs in these conditions but he was out to a ball he usually doesn't get out to. Top 3 will Continue until next WC and will co time to dominate on regular pitches. They can play on greenish wickets as they did against Pak but can't play top class swing bowling like this. Challenge is to find 4th and 5th Batsmen that came core hundreds.
 
One boundary and 4 dots India following Pakistan's footstep...
 
[MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] is correct.

Now stop posting rubbish and let's focus on the match please. Thanks.
 
Shows why Dhoni should have batted at 4 today. Could have guided the chase. They went after RR for DLS and are now out of ammunition
 
Jadeja has been better today than all other Indian players combined. What a knock. Kept India in the game all by himself.
 
I always felt Jadeja is a batsman first, batsman first, batsman first! Probably India should have persisted with him make him play in Top 6 regularly, just regularly! By this time he would have got the gauge of International Batting! India should have persisted with his batting like how Sri Lanka persisted with Jayasuriya, Bangladesh with Shakib... India got either carried away with his bowling (and used him just as bowler) or dropped him when he went out of form! Just didn't see the "batsman" in him! Should have given him some confidence and responsibility! If he had got settled as batsman (at least to the level of Jadhav, DK, Rahul, Rayudu etc, which we were happy about!) then his bowling & fielding would have been actually huge - huge bonus! He would have been on par with Kapil as best Indian alrounder!

I am being emotional on how he is batting today (and he bowled so beautifully yesterday), fielded like a dynamite throughout the series!
 
Neesham(Gulabadin repeat?) overs might be the key if they don't get out now
 
What will happen if Jaddu and Dhoni who are the top two most hated crickters by Indian fans here, win this match for India?
 
Great all-round game by Jaddu today. Showed his value in all three facets
 
India is not chasing this down. Jadeja's innings is as good as that useless one from Pandya.

The top five really embarrassed India today.
