India vs New Zealand | Semi Final 1, World Cup | Old Trafford | 9th Jul, 2019 | New Zealand Innings

[Afhan Ali]

What rubbish this NZ team is

 

[Jeetlodil]

Is the pitch so hard that it's unscorable? Or are they making it look this way?

have to wait for India to bat.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pandya delivers. Crucial crucial crucial wicket Neesh. Now he can bring Chahal back with both righties

CDG will score a 26 run over lol We don't want that now.

 

[AdamM97]

This is the best thing that’s happened to Dinesh Karthik this WC. Lol.

 

[Gullycricket]

Ausstralia messed up big time

 

[Jeetlodil]

In the last WC final. NZ went from 150 for 4 to 180 ish all out

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Need another 80 here

 

[Shaddy86]

This is the team that deserved to qualify over Pakistan? What a waste of a semi final, waste of such a big match. Bigger chokers than SA.

 

[Afhan Ali]

At least Semi Final between Pakistan and India would be blockbuster for ICC

 

[Mueez]

reposting.....some answers were terrific
so what do peepers think...

a) NZ batting has been bog average/pathetic/not pro active enough/not good enough
b) india is bowling well/hand grenades/restrictive/read the pitch well and bowling into the pitch
c) VK's field placing and overall captaincy is excellent...i mean he rarely has fielders out of place....
d) The pitch is mamba
e) conditions...
f) all of the abov
e)none of the above
g) anything you'd like to add...

A: 20%
B: 40%
C; 40%

India have outplayed NZ till now.

Agreed. Pakistan deserved to qualify, too bad luck wasn’t on our side.

 

[Tapeballcricket]

New Zealand playing to protect Net Run Rate again...

 

[Gullycricket]

NZ can never play outside those miniature grounds

 

[dildilpak]

CDG is a real suspect against spin...

 

[DeadlyYorker]

So how many folks still think hat getting Darter in place of Shami or Yadav was a bad idea!

Jadeja was never th question, i even posted 2-3 of my choice of squad and only change with actual squad is bhuvi for shami. Its all good

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

A: 20%
B: 40%
C; 40%

India have outplayed NZ till now.

Mueez bhai....Thanks....good to c u....wish it was you and us in this match.....phir bhi...theres is always next WC...

 

[AdamM97]

Harsha has such a soothing voice. He would make a banging voice actor.

 

[DeadlyYorker]

Only thing that can save NZ would be either a blast in last few overs by CDG/ross or rain rigjt after innings break to make it 20-20

 

[RehanG]

So ICC/Bcci Made a trailor made pitch for the Indian bowlers. And then we say cricket is a fair game.

 

[AdamM97]

Unlucky Chahal.

 

[Green Patriot]

Rain about to arrive soon.

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

At least Semi Final between Pakistan and India would be blockbuster for ICC

Pakistan played the same way against India. All nerves.

 

[FanofCricket]

This is poor from nz

 

[FanofCricket]

New Zealand playing to protect Net Run Rate again...

Funny but true

 

[Jeetlodil]

what if India is 10 for 2 after 5

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

pands was ok....till now.....cmon finish ur quota....

 

[Ram Shekhar]

what if India is 10 for 2 after 5

Quite possible and if those two wickets are of Kohli and Rohit, then bye bye world cup

 

[Mp812]

11 boundaries in 43 overs. Loving it. Go India go.
This is the type of game where Dhoni batting style will be needed to win game. And I am complimenting him as he is an asset in this type of game situation

[Mueez]

Mueez bhai....Thanks....good to c u....wish it was you and us in this match.....phir bhi...theres is always next WC...

Absolutely bhai....

Make Kohli the GOAT by winning the Cup!

Indian team deserves it.

 

[jagatk]

what if India is 10 for 2 after 5

Then we are going to wish we had jadhav here, 220 sort of a chase is something I can trust dhoni to manage.

 

[Firebat]

Absolutely smoked by Taylor.....

 

[watchman99]

Now for the double B show.
240....can it be breached?

 

[BaaliSoda]

Yet another commendable effort with the ball by Pandya.

He has been very reliable 1st change bowler for us this tournament.

 

[Green Patriot]

 

[Mp812]

So ICC/Bcci Made a trailor made pitch for the Indian bowlers. And then we say cricket is a fair game.

And funny that Taylor plays for NZ...taylormade

 

[FanofCricket]

from taylor

 

[jagatk]

Chahal screwing India here, atleast get a wicket here.

 

[Jeetlodil]

Quite possible and if those two wickets are of Kohli and Rohit, then bye bye world cup

Boult has to make an impact. Slow bowlers will dry the runs. Rain will help India

 

[watchman99]

Wow...finally!

 

[Mueez]

Taylor upping the ante.

Key wicket for India.

 

[Green Patriot]

 

[Slog]

So there’s a bit of rain in the air and the field will get wet

When NZ bowl the ball will be wet and harder to grip which will make batting easier

 

[Kaptan]

If match get abandoned today due to rain.
Will it resume tomorrow from the same position or it will be played all over again ?

 

[Jeetlodil]

Batting looked easy in that over

 

[watchman99]

Jadeja has outbowled Chahal comfortably Mr. Manju

 

[FanofCricket]

Good over for nz

 

[watchman99]

I wonder what excuse Manju will have now

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Yet another commendable effort with the ball by Pandya.

He has been very reliable 1st change bowler for us this tournament.

yes...very under rated his bowling...at least in this tournament...but he's bowled well throughout....

 

[Slog]

If match get abandoned today due to rain.
Will it resume tomorrow from the same position or it will be played all over again ?

If it gets abandoned before India bat 20 overs then it will be Ckntjnued tomm

 

[Markhor]

Poor over from Chahal. Struggled with his lengths and pace today.

 

[jagatk]

Absolutely filthy stuff this. From getting just 220 they are now going to get easy 240.

 

[Green Patriot]

18 runs off the over.

 

[BaaliSoda]

Meanwhile, Chahal continues with his awful form into the Semis.

A very poor last over from him.

 

[rhony]

45 runs in the last 5. Tells me pitch doesn't have demons

 

[MP2011]

Poor from Chahal.

 

[Mueez]

yes...very under rated his bowling...at least in this tournament...but he's bowled well throughout....

Pandya has improved his bowling.

 

[Slog]

Poor over from Chahal. Struggled with his lengths and pace today.

Field is wet so hard to grip for spinners now onwards

 

[watchman99]

260 from here is possible

 

[rhony]

Crucial blow this

 

[MP2011]

Review time.

 

[Green Patriot]

Review time.

 

[Mueez]

Looks not out...

 

[FanofCricket]

Taylor survives

 

[barah_admi]

NZ finally decided to play some cricket after one of the most selfish (and this is the correct use of the word) innings I have ever seen. Taylor zombiedh is way to a fifty and is now getting himself out

 

[Titan24]

All the hype around Chahal and Kuldeep (Rightly so) but they have really mediocre throughout the WC to say the least.

 

[rhony]

Not out

 

[Slog]

Looks not out...

Looks like or you want it not out

 

[Green Patriot]

Not out.

 

[AdamM97]

Ross survives.

 

[Mueez]

Looks like or you want it not out

I’m supporting India lol.

 

[FanofCricket]

Still remember 2011 game where Taylor smashed pak all over the park can he do it again today

 

[Deewana]

grandhome chacha need couple of lusty blows

 

[Slog]

Now that he has survived Taylor should have some shame and go for it

 

[MP2011]

NZ finally decided to play some cricket after one of the most selfish (and this is the correct use of the word) innings I have ever seen. Taylor zombiedh is way to a fifty and is now getting himself out

Lol and Indian bowling has nothing to do with that!

 

[FanofCricket]

De granhoome goes

 

[Green Patriot]

200 up.

 

[desi_launda]

 

[rhony]

Got him!!!

 

[jagatk]

Good wicket, he was looking dangerous. Good work bhuvi.
