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

[Majestic_Inzi]

Listen this is old trafford it warm now, pitch shud flatten uo and be easy chase now.

Yesterday would have been different.. Sometimes you need luck. NZ been very unlucky with the wickets they played at..

 

[Kaizoku]

Well most of the posters seem to disagree with that unlucky tag. There has been numerous posts regarding new Zealand is lucky to be in SF.

 

[Hasan123]

Ideally, England is one of the finalists. I heard that if England do make it to the finals, it will be also telecast on Channel 4.

It would really be good to hopefully have 10m+ people watching cricket again. Since cricket has moved to Sky, there hasn't been the cricket fever that was witnessed in 2005.

If England are in the final, it would be free to air for everyone on sky sports. Haven’t heard it’s on channel 4.

That's the beauty of life. It ultimately evens out.

 

[Kaizoku]

No rain on radar till 1PM. That should be enough to force a result.

[GLORY OF '92]

Sunny now. Basically NZ need 3 wickets in the first 10 or its over

 

[TamiL_GarvaM!]

Cmon...indiaaaaa.......get Darzee.....and lattu......go for it....

 

[MP2011]

DK, can't even field now. What a pointless cricketer!

 

[Aman]

This game is over, sun is out...

 

[MP2011]

NZ will reach 250 at least.

 

[desi_launda]

?

 

[Aman]

Another run out for Taylor.

Ugh..

 

[Aman]

This is academic from here, no cloud cover and sun is going to flatten out the pitch.

We've gotten the worst of the pitch conditions in this world cup.

 

[DeadlyYorker]

You just cant hide jadejas excellency in the field

 

[cricketloverindia]

Here comes Harry Potter.

 

[TamiL_GarvaM!]

Hopefully

You guys should get the cup back to Asia...

Just saw ur reply......i remember being wowed and dancing when akram bowled those two amazing balls in 1992 and being super happy when my hero Imran won the cup and built the hosptial for cancer....
I dont know if our guys will win or not but if they do its a victory for you as well as our bd and sl bros....cheers

 

[desi_launda]

Latham gone

 

[DeadlyYorker]

[MP2011]

Santner is a good hitter too.

Keep telling yourself that while yoyr bats cant even get one boundry in 4 overs on so called flat pitch

Lol, excuses factory is working overtime..

Admit it, you were not even good enough to be in semis..

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Jaddu is such a gun fielder!

Latham :

 

[RamLakhan]

Jadeja can get into any current World XI with his fielding alone!

 

[Aman]

Keep telling yourself that while yoyr bats cant even get one boundry in 4 overs on so called flat pitch

Yeah, it's so easy to come out and hit from ball one.

 

[MP2011]

Jadeja can get into any current World XI with his fielding alone!

Correct!

 

[Madplayer]

Pathetic from NZ.

 

[MP2011]

Pathetic from NZ.

Or perhaps magic from Jadeja!

 

[TamiL_GarvaM!]

Jadzzzzzzzaaaaa.....Jadooooooo.......what a ripper....u beaut.....

When there is rain forecasted why did your skipper chose to bat?

 

[DeadlyYorker]

Yeah, it's so easy to come out and hit from ball one.

Ofc its is,when you got 5 wicketd in hand....old ball not new ...just keep your flow of excuses coming while we knock you off

 

[MP2011]

Santner hits a boundary!

 

[Madplayer]

At least get to 245

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Yeah, it's so easy to come out and hit from ball one.

It's neither easy to come out and bowl yorkers from word GO.

 

[desi_launda]

Henry gone

 

[Madplayer]

Or perhaps magic from Jadeja!

They cant hit a 4 to save their lives. Only 1 four in last 4 overs. Really poor.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Simple catch by 8 down :

 

[Aman]

India have gotten one Yorker in..

Some salt on the wounds?

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

It's not easy to bat in the death against Bumrah and Bhuvi.

 

[desi_launda]

Bumrah bowling full tosses but NZ cant hit anything

 

[Smbhayi]

Wow stats shows Jadeja saved 41 runs in just 2 matches and leading the charts.. Then how many he saved while being a substitute..?

 

[m.awais]

Is there going to be a lunch break today as well or just a 10 minutes innings changeover break?

 

[Madplayer]

Wow stats shows Jadeja saved 41 runs in just 2 matches and leading the charts.. Then how many he saved while being a substitute..?

I think it includes his games as substitute.

 

[Aman]

Are off cutters even going to stick in the pitch?

 

[Pk716]

According to dls India should score 237 runs in 46 overs .Now Nz scoring that in 50 overs.

 

[DeadlyYorker]

Amazing bowling,
amazing slower balls and bouncers with once and a while yorker

 

[TamiL_GarvaM!]

It's not easy to bat in the death against Bumrah and Bhuvi.

TBH....what u said about jazboom is correct, but bhuvan is bog average, and would struggle to make most teams...just over hyped and he's bowling 120kmph dross since CT or since last fewyears....i can only remember a fiver against nz in kolkotta in 2016 as the last time he won us something...

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Pak/ BDesh should have been in semis. NZ should not complain

 

[Madplayer]

It's not easy to bat in the death against Bumrah and Bhuvi.

Then why are they even playing the match.

 

[DeadlyYorker]

According to dls India should score 237 runs in 46 overs .Now Nz scoring that in 50 overs.

Dls is pro batsman ,never counts for probablr bowling excellence thus whenever bowlers bowl good,dls is foundout

 

[desi_launda]

240 target for India, NZ scored 28/3 in last 3.5 overs

 

[Aman]

We're screwed, the weather is too influential in England.

Seen it in Tests now getting it in a WC semi..

India should chase this down comfortably at the loss of 2-3 wickets.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Target 240 for India

 

[kingusama92]

Don't think this is enough.

 

[Red Devil]

They got the same score against Pakistan on a tough pitch.

 

[Mueez]

NZ need couple of early strikes to make this interesting.

 

[rhony]

Harsha and Smithy might as well put skirts on and dance. Forget commentary. It was embarrassing cheerleading

 

[Itachi]

Stop whining. You guys, without deserving it, playing the SF purely due to luck.

 

[K4Kohli]

Good death bowling 240 should not be difficult. Come on india

 

[DeadlyYorker]

Then why are they even playing the match.

Ihave seen you with this answer so many times,saved in your dictionary or something? I can understand you are not happy with india bowling good but atleast dont derail the thread.

Someone saying its not easy in death overs vs our bowlers is just the truth,that doesnt mean people will not try and take chances.if your are great at something doesnt mean you will be given free pass,but it means when its time to hit it you'll most likly hit it

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Then why are they even playing the match.

LOL... well they can still hope 1 bad ball/ no ball/ length ball and wait for that. BTW Santner did hit 1

 

[Aman]

Stop whining. You guys, without deserving it, playing the SF purely due to luck.

Enjoy the one way ticket to another Finals spanking.

 

[Mean&Green]

Wow stats shows Jadeja saved 41 runs in just 2 matches and leading the charts.. Then how many he saved while being a substitute..?

That’s including a sub I’m pretty sure and it’s not 41 lol that’s way too many but India have used him as a sub for over 10 overs every match which is quite unfair tbh

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

They got the same score against Pakistan on a tough pitch.

That was Neesham special.

 

[Akki malhotra]

Listen this is old trafford it warm now, pitch shud flatten uo and be easy chase now.

Yesterday would have been different.. Sometimes you need luck. NZ been very unlucky with the wickets they played at..

But new zealand got lucky as they won the toss. Plus it's about new ball. Ball may swing. It's about execution.

 

[rhony]

Enjoy the one way ticket to another Finals spanking.

Giving up already? Game's not over yet. Have some confidence dude

 

[Aman]

NZ need couple of early strikes to make this interesting.

Even that won't be enough, the pitch is good to bat on and will only get better . Even if we have Kohli and Rohit out for 10 runs, the rest should be able to get them. No demons in the pitch, the off cutters which were effective yesterday likely won't be.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Enjoy the one way ticket to another Finals spanking.

So far we lost only 1 WC finals right?

 

[husmukh]

It can be easy in IPL. But, this is WC semi-final and pressure is likely to be there.

Chasing 148 in WC is different than chasing 148 in IPL.

148 is easy in any competition for an decent team.

 

[TamiL_GarvaM!]

That’s including a sub I’m pretty sure and it’s not 41 lol that’s way too many but India have used him as a sub for over 10 overs every match which is quite unfair tbh

Proof? as in prove that the substitution if made was unfair...as opposed to some player etting injured...eg dhawan, vs etc...

 

[Aman]

Giving up already? Game's not over yet. Have some confidence dude

Look at the overhead conditions.. you play Tests in England every year you know how it goes.

 

[Mueez]

You guys do have the best pace-bowling attack imo.

Should be able to do something...

Yes thats why india chose to bowl

 

[rhony]

Boult will banana swing it. Nothing's over yet

If anything,pitch is better suited for NZ today. Despite covers,water seeps from around the pitch and extra moisture will make the ball seam around

 

[husmukh]

Wet ball comes easier to the bat and the spinner will find it difficult too

NZ mostly relies on fast bowlers

 

[Mean&Green]

Proof?

When dhawan was injured I think he was the sub for the whole match so that’s almost like 50overs and other matches he’s always been in the field for quite a long time I’ve only seen dk once or twice come in as a sub but it’s always been jadeja but I don’t mind cause he’s giving a tight slap to manajerkar

 

[ishtiaq_ctg]

If pitch is like yesterday,then I think the game will be 50-50. KW should absolutely attack & try to get both Rohit & Virat in first 10 overs. If that happens then India will have to play out of their skin to win this match
