New Zealand v West Indies | 1st ODI | Auckland | 26/12/2013

[Aman]

Ryder dismissed for a duck, NZ 3/1 after 3 overs.

 

[MarkCooper]

Another one gone

 

[Aman]

Guptil goes.

Taylor and Williamson at the crease.

 

[Saeed]

NZ having really difficult time fortunately.

 

[Aman]

I'm not worried, we still have plenty of batting to come.

 

[Aman]

Now I'm nervous :S

 

[Saeed]

At most NZ will score around 120.

 

[Saeed]

Good batting by McCullum.

 

[Saeed]

Neesham out.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Dont Boult and Southee play ODI's?

 

[Saeed]

Dont Boult and Southee play ODI's?

Boult don't know how to play in ODIs and Southee could be a handy hitter so I don't know why he isn't playing.

 

[Saeed]

100 up for NZ after 29 overs. 21 overs left, if they survive they might be able to get to 200.

 

[Saeed]

McCullum out, no way they will score more than 130 now.

 

[Mobashir]

Brendon gone after a rare good innings from him.

New Zealand relaying too much on bit and pieces in ODI's… They have better player than this.

 

[Justcrazy]

Kiwis in big trouble here

 

[Saeed]

Kyle mills should hit out now.

 

[OZGOD]

Woeful stuff from the Hobbits. This doesn't look like a Mordor type pitch!

 

[Justcrazy]

Partnership 42 runs

 

[Justcrazy]

Kiwis should look to bat out 50 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

If Kiwis can bat out last 8 overs here , they can get to 180 .

 

[Justcrazy]

Holder strikes !!!

 

[Justcrazy]

157 is the target

WI should win this within 42 - 45 overs

 

[Executioner]

Hobbit-like stuff from the hobbits.

156 is never a defendable target but will be interesting if WI lose a couple of wickets soon

Someone from BD calling us hobbits. First time for everything.

 

[Justcrazy]

Mitchell so far has good ODI record 37 wickets , this is his 15th game

 

[Justcrazy]

Kiwis have to look for wickets , should set field as if this was Test

 

[Justcrazy]

31 / 2

 

[Justcrazy]

Mitchele gets another !!!

 

[Justcrazy]

Can another Kiwi bowler make further in roads here ?

 

[Justcrazy]

If kiwis can get another couple of wickets before WI get say 60 , that would spice things up.

 

[Justcrazy]

cris: "I'm quite amazed that Johnson Charles actually made it to international cricket. His Kamikaze batting style makes Afridi look conservative.."

 

[Justcrazy]

43 / 3

 

[Justcrazy]

4 down

 

[Justcrazy]

65 / 4

One more wicket here before WI get to 80 , will make the game really alive

 

[Justcrazy]

Only 92 runs away now.

 

[Justcrazy]

 

[Justcrazy]

Unless Kiwi get another wicket here soon , this will be over

 

[Justcrazy]

things looking more relaxed for WI now.

 

[Justcrazy]

WI inch closer

 

[Justcrazy]

Simmons has batted really well here

 

[Justcrazy]

5 down now.

 

[Justcrazy]

Can Ramdin guide this chase ?

 

[Kianig89]

What a strange game is this a case of which side is worst ?

 

[battler]

Six down now.
61 reqd with 4 wickets left.
Have to say NZ are favourites here.

 

[Saeed]

WI making it difficult for themselves, 1 more and NZ will be in position to take it with them.

 

[battler]

Sammy playing a gem here.

 

[battler]

Ramdin
This match seems a cliff hanger!

 

[Saeed]

At the end WI won.
