[hasanb]

good shot that one, taking it from well outside the offstump, nice one

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

maan this blasted kumble making it seems it went for a single

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

good come back balls

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

94 off 13

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

140- 150 max it seems

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

no ball free hit

 

[hasanb]

vettori gives away a freehit...a tight one though

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

[hasanb]

ah crap...its gone for 6, good shot though

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

vettori will complain about the umpire

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

105 off 14

 

[Sparhawk]

Looks like Kiwis are losing the plot, if Lanka score more than 160, the Kiwis will most probably lose the match

They have a lot of fire power in their batting they can chase 160

 

[Mohsin]

They'll probably be chasing around 170ish, SL should finish strongly.

But nevertheless, it should be a cracking chase...do or die!

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

good over for nz

 

[hasanb]

very very good over from Oram, just 4 runs from it!

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

shottttttttttttttttt for 4444444444444 by mahelaaaaaaaaaaa

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

44444444444444 more by mahelaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

 

[hasanb]

mills has been poor all day

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

4444444444444444444444 more good attacking and improvisation by mahela

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

124 off 16

 

[hasanb]

4 overs to go, NZ need to keep the sirils down to 30 runs at the most from these overs if they want any chance in this game.

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

mills has been poor all day

dont blame mills it was not bad bowling but good batting

 

[kingusama92]

It seems to my eye that Mills is chucking the ball a bit... anyone else notice that?

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

good shot by mahela for 444444444444444444444444

 

[hasanb]

It seems to my eye that Mills is chucking the ball a bit... anyone else notice that?

anyone got the ICC hotline number? lol

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

good come back by butler in that over

 

[hasanb]

5 runs from 3 balls in the over so far need a good finish now

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

outttttttttttt sanga goesssssssssssssss

 

[hasanb]

that wicket will do!

 

[Mohsin]

It seems to my eye that Mills is chucking the ball a bit... anyone else notice that?

He's been chucking all his career!

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

139 off 18

 

[hasanb]

7 runs of the over 2 more to go!

 

[kingusama92]

He's been chucking all his career!

and they let him go?

Quite unfair to be honest. It looks like he's bending it quite a bit. Although the kiwis will always get the benefit of the doubt.

theyre probably letting him go since even with the chucking hes a below average bowler it would seem....

 

[haroonrasheed320]

He is gone Mubarak

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

outtttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt mubarak goessssssssssssssss

 

[hasanb]

mubarak trying to be too cute there with a little paddle shot down leg side but gets out lbw to butler....although replays show it hit his glove/bat

 

[Mohsin]

and they let him go?

lol God knows how he gets away with it...maybe if he starts picking up more wickets.

But it might just be the TV....it certainly looks quite clear the way he 'bowls' the ball but it might be different in real life...who knows.

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

148 off 19

 

[hasanb]

148/5...SL have already got a decent score for this pitch perhaps, NZ need to keep the scoring down in this over

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

cheekyyyyyyyyyyy for444444444444444444444444444444444444

 

[Amjid Javed]

The kiwis will have to bat well to chase anything over 150 here!

 

[asifp]

McCullum and Taylor will have to work magice for this to happen

 

[hasanb]

so 158/5 in the end...hmm not bad for either side really but SL would be favs due to their bowling lineup i reckon.

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

158 not too bad....but lankans have the bowling to defend it

 

[Mohsin]

Sl have 4 spinners here...Murali, Mendis, Jayasuria and that Udana dude with his stock ball of slower balls!

 

[Wassixpakistani]

The kiwis will have to bat well to chase anything over 150 here!

But Not Tooooo Well

 

[Sparhawk]

This isn't a huge total i think NZ are favorites

 

[hasanb]

NZ openers in...mccullum playing with a broken finger!

 

[hasanb]

leg side and clipped away for 4 off his legs good start by mccullum

 

[Sparhawk]

Is Ryder injured? Why isn't he opening?

 

[hasanb]

yeah ryder isnt in the squad hes injured, even ross taylor is injured but hes playing anyway since its a key game.

 

[asifp]

I want NZ vs PAkistan Final

 

[Sparhawk]

Ryder batted brilliantly in one of the matches this tournament, i think it was against Scotland.

Great over for NZ 26-0 after 2

 

[hasanb]

3 boundaries and a 6 super over for NZ! 26/0 after 2 overs

 

[insaftak]

NZ 26 after 2 overs, srilanka in trouble

 

[asifp]

Required RR 7.38

Come NZ

 

[insaftak]

wow what a slow ball

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Exactly the start Kiwis wanted.

 

[Kashif]

In order to overtake SL's overall runrate by which over do NZ need to get these runs?

 

[insaftak]

In order to overtake SL's runrate by which over do NZ need to get these runs?

they already have higher runrate

 

[Mohsin]

No they dont, we have a higher RR

A) If New Zealand beat Sri Lanka by 34 runs or more, or chase their target in less than 16 overs, then their NRR will go above Pakistan's and they will finish top of their group.

http://www.pakpassion.net/ppforum/showthread.php?t=75816

If they win lets hope they win after 16 overs...or else it'll be a waste with SL heading out!

 

[hasanb]

a lucky inside edged boundary and then mccullum holes out, big wicket for udana and SL NZ 30/1 after 3 overs.

 

[insaftak]

No they dont, we have a higher RR

[hasanb]

murali comes into bowl now, lovely shot for 4 through the covers by guptill and NZ are now 38/1 after 4 overs

 

[Mohsin]

he is talking about srilanka

My mistake
