[Aman]

But it's harder to hit around a pacer as compared to a spinner, unless there's a lot of turn on offer which doesn't seem to be the case here. Plus Indians are probably the best players of spin bowling in the world.

Let's just hope Elliot bowls as well as he does against us lmao.

I trust McCullum more than I trust Boult or Southee tbh.

That's how bad both have been, I've lost all confidence in them.

I'd trade them both for Pattinson tbh.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Interesting bowling line up of New Zealand. Only one fast bowler. Adam Milne will perform better than Boult and Southee in T20Is.

 

[Abhilash93]

I trust McCullum more than I trust Boult or Southee tbh.

That's how bad both have been, I've lost all confidence in them.

I may be wrong but I dont think Southee has ever been good in T20s anyway.

 

[street cricketer]

Why does Kane look like Revenant Leo these days..

 

[JibranAnsari]

So many obese kids in India... Take away their iPads

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Boults loss of pace would have rendered him ineffective here I guess.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Kiwis.

There will be blood. Prepare yourself, we are coming to hit ya.

 

[Aman]

I may be wrong but I dont think Southee has ever been good in T20s anyway.

He's been useful, but we have better options than him in LOI's now.

IMO Henry, Milne and Mitch are both ahead of him now.

But.. Henry has been left of the WC squad lol....

A big blunder which has become more apparent since the Test series against Aus.

 

[Syed1]

Why doesn't NZ select Matt Henry. He was very threatening against us (well every bowler is, but he was very good)

 

[Abhilash93]

I may be wrong but I dont think Southee has ever been good in T20s anyway.

Yep, has an economy of 8.62 in T20Is.

 

[BeautifulGame]

Our batting strength is so mighty that it is making opposition captains go bonkers and making bizarre changes.

Two spinners should have been enough considering Williamson can also few overs of spin.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

So many obese kids in India... Take away their iPads

Percentage of obese kids is still probably lower than most countries and its the changing diet that's causing obesity.

 

[carrom_ball]

Get ready for an epic phainty, nz

Yea, would have liked one of Henry or Mitch here.

 

[street cricketer]

Ash opening.

 

[Aman]

Why doesn't NZ select Matt Henry. He was very threatening against us (well every bowler is, but he was very good)

Not in the squad.

Management are probably regretting it now.

 

[Boxer]

WWE gets started

 

[BeautifulGame]

I may be wrong but I dont think Southee has ever been good in T20s anyway.

remember Southee playing for CSK , was very good in the death overs with his yorkers.

Not sure who NZL are now going to rely on in death overs

 

[JaDed]

Ash opening as expected.

 

[Syed1]

Percentage of obese kids is still probably lower than most countries and its the changing diet that's causing obesity.

I thought veggies did not have alot of fat in them

 

[Red Devil]

: What a start lmaooo

 

[street cricketer]

Lol First ball of tourney six!

 

[JaDed]

start with a shocker

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Ashwin to right handers?

 

[JaDed]

)

 

[BeautifulGame]

What a start lmao

Six and gone

 

[street cricketer]

Gone!

 

[Syed1]

Wow

 

[carrom_ball]

 

[Markhor]

)

 

[JibranAnsari]

Guptil goes. *********.

 

[MMHS]

Must be an absolute rank turner, otherwise Kiwi's team selection is generally very good; they won't have dropped Boult. I think, Kiwis are backing themselves to bat & field IND out here.

Not happy with the wicket actually - Old Barabati was one of the best scoring wickets around; but this new stadium wicket is poor.

 

[Bakasura]

1 down...9 to go

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Lol and

 

[Sandeep]

What the hell is happening?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

I thought veggies did not have alot of fat in them

I thought obesity rates were higher in Pakistan?

 

[Abdul]

Lol.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Nz won't score more than 120 here.

 

[carrom_ball]

Ashwin to right handers?

Yes

 

[Red Devil]

Huge blow

 

[BeautifulGame]

This is why Guptill is never picked in IPL.

Spinners easily tie him in a knot

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

As I predicted, Ashwin bowled a seam up on a spin ground, got carted.

Next proper spin wicket.

This guy will never change.

lol.

 

[Syed1]

That was an Afridi innings.

Guptil bhai paying tribute to the legend in his last tourney

 

[marlonbrowndo]

What a start to the wc. Six and out

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Ridiculous. Sweep shot is one of the most risky shots. Guptill has lost it. Play him on the backfoot.

 

[Aman]

Awful decision.

That wasn't out.

Missing.

 

[JaDed]

That wasn't out

 

[Red Devil]

Munro at his best. Wow

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

What a six by Munro. Whoa.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

What a crazy shot. NZ showing crazy intent. Munro is such a clean hitter

 

[Syed1]

India should watchout.. This Munro guy is mighty dangerous

 

[Aman]

Ridiculous. Sweep shot is one of the most risky shots. Guptill has lost it. Play him on the backfoot.

It wasn't out.

 

[JaDed]

Kiwis going after us,Pandya stops 4

 

[BeautifulGame]

That was missing .Gutpill just unlucky

Still cant miss like that against spinners.Most ump will give out tbh

 

[theariezman]

So India get away with guptill wicket who wasn't out according to DRS

[marlonbrowndo]

Not out

 

[Aman]

Clearly over the top.

 

[Markhor]

This is the craziest opening over to a tournament I've ever seen.

 

[street cricketer]

Looked like out real time but wickets missing.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Yes

Ash was lucky to get that decision.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Bad decision. Dharmasena was pressurised by the Indian crowd to give it out.

 

[Boxer]

Awful decision.

That wasn't out.

Missing.

plumb

 

[Mr Consistent]

it was not out Yar

 

[marlonbrowndo]

NZ playing with a bad bowling lineup. Need 175 or more

 

[aslaisnomasla]

ashwin the nakliii bowler getting treated how he should

 

[Red Devil]

Munro is right up there with the very best hitters in the world. Guy's a beast.

 

[Abdul]

It wasn't even out...

 

[Syed1]

That was missing .Gutpill just unlucky

Still cant miss like that against spinners.Most ump will give out tbh

Lol what a lame excuse, show your age their youngster

 

[Sandeep]

Fun match this!!!

 

[battler]

What a start!
Indians buying out the umpires as usual

 

[JibranAnsari]

Percentage of obese kids is still probably lower than most countries and its the changing diet that's causing obesity.

Yah changing diet and less outdoor activities. Ps4 , iPads and movies.

 

[carrom_ball]

Indians cheating as usual

 

[dashing_man]

indians cheating straight away. why am I not surprised. pathetic

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Crazy opening over of the tournament

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

That was not out. But it did look very very close.

And Ashwin stop being a dumbass and don't bowl the seam up delivery.

Unnecessarily gave 2 sixes of the seam ups.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

It wasn't out.

Yes but better to play him off the backfoot.

 

[Bilal7]

LOL! Ashwin as good as Ajmal, yeah right.

Two sixes and only a horrible decision saves this over from being a disaster.

 

[yasir]

How in the world was that out and Amir to Kohli was not? [emoji848][emoji848][emoji848][emoji848]

Kumar Dharmasena was a bits and pieces all-rounder.

Seems to be a bits and pieces umpire too.
