New Zealand [245/6] beat South Africa [241/6] by 4 wickets in 25th match of 2019 World Cup

[Kianig89]

Pakistan team might be happy seeing NZ sailing through k jaan chooti azab se

 

[Ronaldo7]

Btw, RSA win here wont help BD. If anything RSA will beat Pak and get closer to semi and rise like a phoenix from the ashes.

Doubt it tbh. Sa always loses when a win is needed. 2017 ct matches vs pak and ind
T20 world cup matches as well
2015 cwc etc

 

[Kianig89]

Pwayo the weak link

 

[Hasan2K8]

The wicket is sticky is what they said. But it’s not a 240 wicket. 265-275 would’ve been a winning score. With 240 there’s not great deal of scoreboard pressure unless it was SA chasing. I feel SA might be 20-25 runs short!

 

[Markhor]

I feel like Pakistan have been through countless ODI run chases like this in UAE.

 

[Mueez]

This is the point where Babar usually fails.

He gifts his wicket once the team starts a mini-collapse.

 

[Hasan123]

Good partnership by these 2.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

Too easy.. Sun out easier to bat

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Just as RR pressure was getring to kiwis phelu bowls a horendous over to give advantage bak to kiwis wow

 

[alishahid]

One wicket on the way. We l be seeing nz collapsing like a pack of cards or like pakistan

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

111 of 105 easy with 2 set batsmen. Saffer need 2 wkts urgently

 

[Hasan123]

Should have bowled Tahir out. SA need wickets.

 

[Hasan123]

Morris on now.

 

[TheRock]

Nz batting is either Williamson or Nothing.

 

[Hasan123]

Excellent captaincy. Excellent ball. And good catch by Amla.

 

[Hasan2K8]

Morriss is proving his worth as a bowling ALR. Good captaincy kept that slip!

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

Good game though.

 

[Afhan Ali]

Inform SA will smash Pak and SL
If they manage to beat Australia they will go through

 

[Smbhayi]

so they're back in the game.. now pls get rid of Kane and Santer.. others will throw their wicket away..

 

[Markhor]

All it takes is one mistake and SAF are back in this. Slip kept in - take note Sarfraz.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

Nz batting is either Williamson or Nothing.

Game on, still either way. Grandhomme dangerous hitter.

 

[Hasan123]

CDG won't hang around. He will look to go bit.

 

[Hasan123]

Bring Tahir onto CDG. He is decent against pace.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

Told you, grandhomme dangerous

 

[Hasan123]

Tahir on.

 

[Hasan123]

Williamson should hog the strike versus Tahir.

 

[Hasan123]

Need to get CDG.

 

[Justcrazy]

Williamson is the key here , SA would love to get his wicket now.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

All it takes is one mistake and SAF are back in this. Slip kept in - take note Sarfraz.

Sarfraz would take note once the edge had flown through the vacant slip area.

 

[castortroy]

Just switched on the match

Which victory will favour Pak?

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Really need willaimson wkt if saffer are to win this. If kiwis bat 50 they win

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Also saffer have worry of 5th bowler now as phelu getting smashed

 

[Hasan123]

Williamson temperament is excellent.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Epic innings by Williamson so far.

 

[Justcrazy]

This can be a close game , but SA need wickets .

 

[Afhan Ali]

Williamson will win it for NZ
What a great sportsman he is.

Mediocre teams are hoping for NZ loss.

 

[emranabbas]

Just switched on the match

Which victory will favour Pak?

we need SA to win

 

[jnaveen1980]

Dhoni style chase should do.

 

[Hasan123]

CDG has been trash for a while and he decides to turn up today.

 

[DeadlyYorker]

80 balls 84 ,intresting match to follow aslong as kane is out there...even if he is there has to play run a ball,incase he gets out after 50 runs,it shud be easy for tail to chase they cant chase anything 6+

 

[WengerOut]

Dhoni style chase should do.

Which basically means batsman at the other end need to do the hard lifting.

 

[Justcrazy]

82 from 13 overs

 

[NeVerMind]

Williamson will win it for NZ
What a great sportsman he is.

Mediocre teams are hoping for NZ loss.

They ain't that great mate. Making a meal out of a small chase. England and India at the top...then the rest of the teams...

 

[DeadlyYorker]

Dhoni style chase should do.

U mean from 80 balls 84 they shud aim 20 balls 45? Sry its better they play run a ball

 

[Hasan123]

Andile worst performance of the tournament today.

 

[Markhor]

Colin de Grandhomme once destroyed us in a similar run chase when it appeared we had an upper hand.

He is releasing the pressure.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Which basically means batsman at the other end need to do the hard lifting.

I think he will manage 6 an over easily. He will back himself to score 10 an over in the last 3.

 

[DeadlyYorker]

Andile worst performance of the tournament today.

That sentence doesnt make sense,either worst perfomance of tournament or worst of this match? I guess u meant later onr

 

[jnaveen1980]

Cdg turing up to minimize greenbros chances ,hmmm intresting...bcci must have bribed him to play good- conspirscy theory

More like he is turning up to maximize NZ chances. Everything else is byproduct. It is an important match for NZ as well.

 

[Hasan123]

Game slipping away from South Africa.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Bowl Rabada out now. What is the point in keeping him in the backend

 

[Hasan123]

That sentence doesnt make sense,either worst perfomance of tournament or worst of this match? I guess u meant later onr

Worst of the tournament I meant.

 

[DeadlyYorker]

More like he is turning up to maximize NZ chances. Everything else is byproduct. It is an important match for NZ as well.

Ofc coz he is playing for nz,whats up
with people handling little banter?

 

[jnaveen1980]

Batting depth is useful in situations like this. Tight chase. tiny partnerships

 

[jnaveen1980]

Catchable. WIlliamson was an absolute nervous wreck against Tahir lol

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Tahir bowled his heart out for Pakistan

 

[jnaveen1980]

Balls are turning as the matches go GOod for us

 

[emranabbas]

well played tahir

 

[jnaveen1980]

Series of little partnerships will do for NZ. But if they pick KW right now SA will be right back in the game

 

[TheRock]

Williamson nicked that. SA did not appeal. LOL. De kock is a joke.

 

[jnaveen1980]

How much more SA can bottle ?

 

[Hasan123]

Game over unfortunately.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

I thought that was a nick

 

[Mean&Green]

Really fishy from South Africa first the no attempt run out miss and than this it was clear nick everyone heard it

 

[jnaveen1980]

De Kock is the most useless guy under pressure.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

to rabada ouch

 

[Hasan123]

How much more SA can bottle ?

This tournament hasn't been bottling . It's been a lack of quality from South Africa.

 

[Justcrazy]

Williamson looks determined here

 

[Markhor]

And that is what turns a game.

Six as well, insult to injury.

 

[emranabbas]

we need a wicket here asap

 

[Asif321]

Horrible from dekock
There goes game and there goes WC

 

[TheRock]

I thought that was a nick

It was a nick. Chokers did not even appeal. They r mentally dead.

 

[DeadlyYorker]

Worst of the tournament I meant.

So far worst i think it is Damadji.

Andile atleast made 17 of 17 and took 2 wickets in match saf won,did 34 runs when saf was crumbling to ind and also took 1 wicket.

damadji has had 2 golden ducks and one innings 8 off 8, with almost non existent bowling.

Summery,
Soheib malik owns title of worst perfomer of this wc till now

 

[Asif321]

NZ will have to lose all 4 games now for SA and Pak to have any chance

 

[Abdulm123]

Guess who’s back

 

[Ronaldo7]

NZ will have to lose all 4 games now for SA and Pak to have any chance

Sa have no chance now.

 

[Mueez]

De Kock.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Williamson nicked that. SA did not appeal. LOL. De kock is a joke.

That misjudgement will probably cost the game.

 

[Sarwar89]

It was a nick. Chokers did not even appeal. They r mentally dead.

It was at Edgbaston Donald/Klusener run out happened in 1999.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

Hmmm, de kock did a dhoni
