NZ don't have the same batting depth though.
I like the people in this thread but my ex boss is English, and he's never short of words when India lose
Sri Lanka 2014?
Over 10 an over needed now
Just looked the team up. WAy better than this team surely. 3 great batsmen, Malinga and decent spinners for sub continent
Yup. I also would never declare any T20 with 165 on the board 'over'. Early wickets and everything changes. On a good pitch you'd chase his 3/4 of the time, but that's by no means 'over'.
True. But please just let me be pessimistic without your rational views spoiling it
Carry on!
I might be in the minority, but I have no concept of what a good score is till the match is over in T20
It's not like test where you know whether the guy with better technique is more defensive/struggling, and can gauge the pitch
Exciting test match this. Could these two see out this evening session? Only 11 more overs to survive
Nonsense.
NZ have done well to steady things here. Only 10 runs behind where England were. However, you can still see how hard it is to get the ball away. Its so similar to the ODI WC final its crazy.
England had one more wicket in the bank and a deeper batting line up. NZ are going to have to start taking more risks now and can't afford to lose many wickets.
This is still right on a knife edge.
Runs on the board preferred.
Runs on the board preferred.
Still fancy NZ.
This is true, but these two came together a bit sooner and are therefore now better set.
Why do no balls cost a run and a free hit, where as wides are basically zero punishment?
Yeah true, I forgot England lost Bairstow as well so there was no wicket in the bank.
CAnt believe they had 30 comms to choose from and decided Sammy, Danny Morrison are the 2 they want for the knockouts
I've not been massively impressed by any of them all tournament. Doull and Hussain the pick maybe?
Really need to break this partnership to regain control here
Of all the new comms - of which theere are a lot - I like Shane Watson
Of course. Fecking cnuts will take the game away from us.
Tbf he is from NZ
He was quite fun. Better than Steyn.
I don’t think NZ can pull this off here.
These Kiwis were being billy big bollocks vs a complacent and outdated Indian team. Shitting it now vs the big boys.
Fantastic effort
I have it 50/50 now. The momentum is against England though.
Why isn't Moeen bowling ?
How could the NZ commentator not see the ball hit the rope
It’s still on for NZ, could be tight.
Steve Bruce is in the house
Go on Liam lad.
Big wicket
Perfect time for a wicket.
