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

[KingKhanWC]

17 to go . 130 needed & its game on .

Sharma & Kohli early 100% win the game

 

[Titan24]

He cannot praise Jadeja... he is trying to save face

Lol! Yes he said there is only one wicket taken by spinners today and then skipped the part where he had to say it was Jadjeja.

 

[rhony]

Every match gets a different set of commies by taking into account the teams that are playing. This current set is the worst we are seeing. Cometh the Eng vs Aus match and quality of commentary you will know what I am talking about.

I've been talking about India games. It's the same lot with unidimensional commentary

 

[IAJ]

Masterstroke by Kohli and Co to being back Jadeja, given only 26 runs and a wicket in 9 overs, what more do you want. And he can hold the bat AS well.

 

[rhony]

Hard to work out NZ tactics here. They are not targeting any bowler. It's a big risk leaving for the old rounders at the end. It could work or they could be bowled out for around 200. Taylor should be the one taking some risks here.

It's a big game. You need to make sure to get a par score. Par is about 250 it appears

 

[watchman99]

Target 30 from Bumrah 4 overs and 130 from the rest... could still get 280 in theory

 

[jnaveen1980]

I think Taylor will unleash in the death overs. He is biding his time.

 

[Titan24]

I've been talking about India games. It's the same lot with unidimensional commentary

Thats true but I thought they can change the things a little atleast in semi.

 

[m.shah]

This Ross Tayor is A terrible player. He hasn't scored from his previous 11 balls he faced

 

[rhony]

Excellent bowling by India so far. Champion team. NZ will fight with the par score but I think India has batting to counter it

 

[Smbhayi]

On the other hand Shami can give 50 runs in 3 overs at death, losing the match. India had to choose between the two

How many times Shami conceded 30+ in last 3 overs?

 

[Ram Shekhar]

See off Bumrah and take apart Bhuvi.. simple strategy for Kiwis..

 

[jagatk]

Please no more overs from bumrah keep him for 40's.

 

[jagatk]

See off Bumrah and take apart Bhuvi.. simple strategy for Kiwis..

Not a fan of bhuvi but he has developed into a good death bowler.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

tigerish fielding, pant-tastic ...by rishabh...thats the spirit me boy....

 

[desi_launda]

Something's going to happen here.....

 

[jnaveen1980]

Jimmy and CDG can be dangerous.

 

[Madplayer]

What the heck is Ross taylor doing

 

[Aman]

Taylor is woefully out of touch.

Whole batting line up outside Kane don't know how to hold a bat...

 

[shah_1]

This innings is going nowhere

This match reminds me of SL vs England quarter final 2011 WC, England playing same sort of game and SL smashing the chase.

 

[Pk716]

Don't know why India is always harsh on shami one bad game he will be out of the team.

 

[Titan24]

8 overs of Bumrah and Spinners remaining, if Nz can score 6-7 runs in those overs and target the remaining 8 overs for 10 rpo than they can get 250+ which can be par on this surface.

 

[rhony]

Kane getting a move on. They need 170 to 180 by 40th to get to 250

 

[shariqnoor]

Well NZ would need a blinder from someone to get to 250-260 now. Getting 10 an over at the end off Bumrah is near impossible these days. The acceleration needs to happen now.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

good stumping attempt by mahi...keep going lads...if we get beta william and ross darzi....we'll have a massive chance....go indiaaaaaa.....

 

[rhony]

This innings is going nowhere

This match reminds me of SL vs England quarter final 2011 WC, England playing same sort of game and SL smashing the chase.

That's because of dew while chasing. There's no dew here. Nobody is gonna smash the target. This will be a tight game if NZ can get to 250

 

[jnaveen1980]

Don't know why India is always harsh on shami one bad game he will be out of the team.

They compare the legal issues of players and pick based on who has less issues

 

[volcyz]

Taylor killed nz last World Cup too with his pathetic batting

Mcullum was right about this selfish player

 

[Pk716]

Not a fan of bhuvi but he has developed into a good death bowler.

Bhuvi has regressed in death bowling. Few years back he used to be as good as Bumrah in death.

 

[desi_launda]

 

[jnaveen1980]

WIlliamson (c) taylor (b) Taylor lol

 

[jagatk]

Big wicket!!! Williamson gone

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Taylor needs to show intent now

 

[shah_1]

That's because of dew while chasing. There's no dew here. Nobody is gonna smash the target. This will be a tight game if NZ can get to 250

OUT

It will be quite similar

 

[Aman]

That wicket is on Taylor.

 

[rhony]

Gooone!!!??

 

[Sycamore]

hope taylor is proud, this is his wicket

 

[Green Patriot]

What was that shot lol.
Big big wicket.

 

[rhony]

Deceived Kane in the air. Great bowling

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

well played williamputtar.......cmon lads...get colin de gron and jimmy neesh....

 

[jnaveen1980]

Kane williamson is usually like a monk. Even he lost his patience with Taylor. Kohli would have lost his patience long back.

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Taylot to Williamson- Out

 

[Madplayer]

Taylor putting immense pressure on Kane there.

 

[Titan24]

Latham is also out of form

 

[jnaveen1980]

Good choice to promote Jimmy

 

[rhony]

Jaddu's done with his 10 by the time Neesham is in. Lucky for India

 

[kingusama92]

One man can only do so much.

 

[Titan24]

Latham is also out of form

So Latham is demoted and Neesham with his for his form comes in.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Cmon...peepers...give some credit....that wicket was not only built up of pressure but also good bowling.....give some credit where it was due....

 

[Green Patriot]

Tuk tuk time again?

 

[rhony]

Chahal teasing Neesham. Excellent contest

 

[Titan24]

I guess NZ proved enough in group stages to suggest they are a mediocre team. So unless somebody from their side produces the match of their life they dont look like winning it.

 

[Babbar]

NZ probably aiming for 225-250. That will be a fighting score if they get Rohit in the first 3 overs.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Taylor needs to play the knock of his life

 

[HappyWarsFan]

Inshallah NZ will win! India's barsmen will be no match for Boult and Ferguson

 

[rhony]

BK to bowl 2 here to complete Chahals spell. Then it's the death bowling of India.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Not sure what their game plan is. But They adopt India's policy of keeping the wickets in hand. But usally teams would be 180 odd by now.

 

[Tapeballcricket]

This match and NZ's crap performance hurts even more that they are playing Semis instead of an in form Pak team.

 

[Green Patriot]

CRR:3.78

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

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...

 

[oneindia]

Taylor needs to play the knock of his life

He already played it against Pakistan in 2011.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Taylor is suffering from 'Dhoni Syndrome'. Got into a tangle of over-protecting his wicket.

Semi final pressure......

 

[volcyz]

Can see Indian scoring 70 for no loss after 10 overs on this flat pitch

 

[Chennai_cricket_fan]

Dhoni is such a cricket brain. No wonder he dropped Taylor.

 

[Pk716]

Taylor is so out of form he should go back in the crease and smash the wickets with his legs.

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

What the hell is Taylor doing? Does he think he can recover against Bumrah later?

 

[Aman]

I'm going to sleep, we've lost.

They haven't even given a good account of themselves today.

India should cruise the 190-200 runs we make.

Their openers let the team down so badly. It had a cascading effect.

 

[rhony]

Terrific bowling by India

 

[jnaveen1980]

As a batsman if you get into the mindset of protecting your wicket you will lose your natural game. That is what happening to Taylor. Bit of luck he will be away. He is a quality batsman.

You forgot the most important one: IPL Contracts :

 

[desi_launda]

Dhoni is such a cricket brain. No wonder he dropped Taylor.

"Khelo Dimag Se"

 

[Green Patriot]

Smash Pandya cmon.
You cant do it when Bumrah comes.

NZ batting has been pathetic throughout the tournament, dont remember them putting or chasing anything substantial. Nothing to take away from Indian bowling but NZ has struggled against almost every attack in this WC.

 

[rhony]

Their openers let the team down so badly. It had a cascading effect.

Credit goes to Jadeja and opening bowling

 

[jagatk]

How costly will that prove.

 

[rhony]

Bad miss by Rohit. Should have taken that

Pitch is not a mamba, batsmen are choking

 

[FanofCricket]

Very slow batting from nz despite wickets in hand any thing under 250 will be a cake walk for Indian batting
