It is not just the shot. It is the timing of the shot. He played way too early. That is why bat was not even close to ball. He paused it extra milli seconds.Jaffa. You can't play Cross batted shot against Santner .
What will be he do against india at the Dubai. We can't win against NZAbsolute peeeeeach
Santner is the master of varying his pace and on a pitch like this it can work wonders when nothing else is working.
No he was always a top bowler in limited over cricket.
Yes but unless you get off to a flying start you are always behind the 8 ball even if you play a few dot balls. And South Africa have already played too many dot balls. This also doesn't take into account the fact that NZ smashed 100+ in the last 10. Batting first, with wickets in hand you have the freedom to do that. When chasing with wickets down it becomes really tough even on a flat wicket.
For India, he will be public enemy no.1. Played a starring role in NZ's series win in India. And I don't think he bowled well enough in the last game. With more awareness about the pitch now, I expect a much improved performance from him if NZ make the final.What will be he do against india at the Dubai. We can't win against NZ
Has Henry hurt himself ?
Yeah Young hasn't really done anything since that century against Pak in the first match
will never wish injury to any player ... no win worth it imo . 196 from 128Klassen gone.lets hope Henry also gone for india sake
Yup but he is even better now.
But they say he is a monster vs spin when ever i see him he always fails to deliver under pressure always choke south africa has to kick him out if they want to really win any icc title in future
NZ won a test series in India with a number of the same players, where they beat India at their own game: spin. I think they are best positioned to beat India eventhough India are favorites going into the final.
So now we know how tough new zealand bowling is bro these guys are hard to get away santner in my opinion is the best spinner in the world right now just won his team a semi final single handedly.
Test performance has nothing to do with ODI cricket. #justSaying
Definitely one of the best going around in white-ball. Very smart and canny operator.
That's a different format and played with the red SG ball and very spin friendly pitches
It's not about test performance. It's about beating India with spin, which is exactly what NZ did in that series. And spin will play a massive role in that final too.Test performance has nothing to do with ODI cricket. #justSaying
If i want to borrow a batsman from Pakistan to deal with santner that would be Fakhar. That guy destroyed Santner most of the times.
Not necessarily
Patel can do This job. But most importantly gill has to Play Long innings because gill has played Santner with ease in limited over cricket.
I agree from idealistic pov.Everything is fair in war and love bro.After all we are the obsessed lovers of the game.

India has already beaten NZ on a same Dubai pitch few days ago and you're talking about what was happened 4-5 months ago. Current performance and confidence matters most rather than what was happened in few months ago.
It's not just that though. Someone like Matt Henry for instance has a very good record against India. NZ also has some good players of spin like Rachin, Latham, Williamson, Mitchell.
182 of 114 you've got to go hard. And if they don't start hitting boundaries now they won't even give yourself a chance to take the game deep.
Think you're getting very unnecessarily defensive. I didn't say NZ will win. I said they are best positioned among all the teams in the tournament to beat India. India are still favorites going into the final.India has already beaten NZ on a same Dubai pitch few days ago and you're talking about what was happened 4-5 months ago.
