New Zealand defeat India by six wickets in World Cup 2019 warm-up match

He'll come down the order and make a 50(100) and his fans will goo gaga on how good he is even in swinging conditions.:inti

He'll have to play 100 balls to score 50 and try and get this team over 100 runs and save the face of India because the Top 4 couldn't even last 30 balls collectively. :)))
 
I think match was all about deciding who should bat at no.4. KL Rahul has left us with more confusion. I thought he was going to be in the starting XI .

Shankar was always the first choice no 4. Kl is reserve drinks carrier.
 
He can bat better than Kohli on certain days. worse than Bumrah on certain days. That is why he is frustrating us. Lasttime in England he scored a fabulous T20 century full of gorgeous shots.
But i feel hes all messed up in his mind.
MS once said international game is all about who handles pressure well.

Oh bhai we do not need any face saving innings.Ou ranking and past performance is more than enough to compensate for this match.
We need a match winning innings from dhoni,just like what we expect from kohli.
 
Jimmy and big gronde fighting for that all rounder spot personally I’ll go with neesahm he’s something special the hyper inflation guy is a pure hack
 
I think india is lacking major middle order experience player. Suresh raina or pant would have been a good choice.
 
Pandya seriously needs to put on weight I know he might think he’s fit and all but that body of his is very injury prone and he’s alrwdy holding his back also he’s like 6”2 and 160 pounds the guys anorexic but hits it miles but still needs to put on weight
 
India huffed and puffed to reach 250 in NZ after top order collapse. They went on to win the match.
 
I don't care if it's a warmup match but these players should be held accountable for playing irresponsible cricket especially when there are hundreds of fans from all borders of the country turn up to the stadium to see you play even if it's a warmup game. These Rohits and Dhawans should be kicked out of the team for their careless shots and not improving their game against swinging ball. Heck, even the Pandya kid is showing better application and temperament than these overrated superstars! What was that shot from Kohli? When was the last time the Indian top 3 ever played an impactful innings collectively to score big? Irresponsible idiots!

Jimmy neesham got stumped by dhoni in a bizarre way in that game India wasn’t winning it and I watched that game newzeland were trying out random things

I wouldn't say they played irresponsibly. That was just Rohit Dhawan against moving ball. Rahul just being Rahul.
 
To be honest most of the current international team players are susceptible against swinging balls. Look at Aaron finch who kept getting bowled or leg before by Shami or Bhuvi time and again with that incoming ball. All are vulnerable.
 
India is a good team. They have a good bowling attack, all bases covered, so i back them to be in semis for sure. Pak well we have a concern, we need to lift ourselves up if we are to compete.
 
Yoo how is India letting CDG man handle them like that jeeez

He is pretty good when the ball is nipping around. He looks super innocuous. But he comes alive in moving conditions. You will see the real CDG on flat tracks He will be taken to cleaners.
 
looks like the pitches are swinging again suddenly. i feel really bad for juniad khan, he would have loved this type of swing
 
Ok pandya lets go he’s actuslly very decent against the short ball but again it’s lokcie bowling extreme pace zero brain
 
Inda wont worry about run rate at this point yet. It is a matter of batting the full quota of 50 overs.
 
Why has Pandya Orange collars and Dhoni blue? Dhoni is wearing long sleeves, maybe therefore.
 
[MENTION=140806]jnaveen1980[/MENTION] yoo pandya getting beaten by cdg and asking dhoni bhai main ajj karke nahin aya hun warna beat nahin hotha
 
The trundler is more threatning than the express pacer
 
Dhoni looking to get his team as deep into the overs as possible. Smart play here.
 
Poor guy pandya soon realized it wasn’t Jayden unadkat and Sidharth kaul bowling to him was struggling very badly against the swinging ball
 
India's warm up specialist DK is in lol This guy always clicks in warm ups and goes missing in the main event

Dude.. he survived the even tougher part and got out. He played better than everyone else except Kohli.
 
Neesham has 2 :)))

Might as well let India get 250 so our batsmen get some practice.

Result means nothing.

Man but I told you he can’t repeat IPL here and he only smashes spinners and u even know it lockie is there worst bowler also u were right about dk playing well in warm up games he’s going well so far

This is the possibly the msot helpful conditions you will ever get. Even here he was playing some beautiful shots. Imagine him on a flat tracks in the end overs. HE was facing 4 over old ball here in swinging conditions. Even in IPL he would come after 15 overs.
 
You wouldn't be able to tell that majority of the Indian players are coming off a 3-4 month long tournament of cricket.

I don't think most of our players have played much cricket since the Indian series.

That means India will play against New Zealand in the final. :inti
 
I would like too much into indians batting today.. i think they only play one more match at the oval in WC. Also seen as its their first match in the UK. they can be let of for getting used to the conditions.
 
I said it before, Indians are exhausted due to IPL and it's going to get wodse because there is no respite either.
 
I just don't understand why this ravindra jadeja was sent should have sent jadhav. Ravindra jadeja is the biggest freeloader here
 
Lols all the ads on Star Sports are featuring either Kohli or Dhoni.
 
If Kane was treating this seriously he would have brought back Boult and Southee to finish it off.

This is a warm up so he's going to use everyone and ignore the situation of the game to see how the bowlers will respond when bowling in these periods.

That is an excuse. Let us give credit to good bowling atleast boult. Others got some free wickets.

That joke of a tournament ended just 10-12 days ago and look at the players now. IPL fans thought this will be a walk in the park because they are coming off a very competitive cricket tournament. Never underestimate practice in the conditions where world cup will be played. :inti

Tbh playing that much cricket might work against hte players, that's a lot of cricket to be playing over 6 months. Wouldn't surprise me if the players are burnt out.
