The slowest 100 this WC was NZ against Pak.. came in the 32nd over.
NZ made 237 and lost.

He has already bowled 7, will defo bowl one more. It's fine if Kohli has to bowl 2 somewhere or the other.

Give Bumrah 2 now and save 4 for the end. Bhuvi a couple too and 3 for the end.
He's gone with your call

Yeah, I see that happening esp as hes in now. See if he can get a wicket here but also slow them down even further putting more pressure on them to try and hit after his overs.

50 off 79 balls is fine if they go at 7/8 an over from here.

You should have watched enough Cricket to know that. Stupid statement.
It's not fine when you've scored 110 runs in 30 overs with 8 wickets in the hand. This would have been slow even in the 90s.

Maybe not getting a wicket and keeping at this pace is a good thing :nervous:

Jadeja has done really well. Has bowled well and has saved a few runs on the field. Way better option than Jadhav

Is the pitch that bad for batting or NZ feel like playing a test match today.

Mostly harmless
Still remember Ross taylor tearing pakistani bowlers a new one in the 2011 world cup match. He can single handedly take the game away in a matter of few overs
Yeah. An Ajay Jadeja like inning from 1996 WC QF vs Pakistan from Latham can change the match here

Just read that he scored 100 in 5 overs
But IMO expecting Taylor to do that is like expecting Dhoni to get 100 of 50 balls, both are past their prime and the only reason people talk big about them is because of the reputation they had

Taylor isn't past him prime. He average 70+ this year. It is just that he has never been a big game player. Pads his stats in other matches and flops when it counts. Watch him score a century now though :nervous:

Nah, Taylor's had a poor World Cup, but the two years leading up to this he's been in ridiculous form.

Was just thinking Chahal is who NZ have to attack, and he gets a key wicket :lol:
