CWC Semi Final - Black Caps v India
-
These guys are starting to just waste balls now. Taylor is blocking out this over.
We're only two down and need to get on with it now.
@Damo they're just building an innings mate, be patient...

The last thing we need to do is send Latham in next

Will be really interesting to see how the Indians go batting on this pitch. Is it tougher work than it looks? Have we gone into our shells? Are these two doing a great job of tying us down and stopping runs?

these two blokes just remember what you guys are forgetting - how crap everyone to come is.
@reprobate Do not disrespect the Neesh in such a manner.

Can only hope the pitch is a nightmare. Initially I was thinking aim for 200 after 40 then launch to go for 300. But it seems much tougher so I guess has been re-evaluated to 150-170 then launch.
Problem is when we collapse when trying to launch so we end up trying to defend 180 odd. I.e WC final 2015.

Okay I'm fucking sick of listening to Steve Waugh talk about the 99 world cup

Tell me we picked the guy actually turns the ball...
We did.... pick him to carry the drinks....
Well, shit.
Great job by Gary and Kane to read the pitch

Yeah - conditions have been far from easy. Early swing and turn.

It's turning but where is our turn coming from? I can't see much there for our quicks.

Ok. I'm sacrificing myself for the good of the team.
Bed now.
I expect you, being the all night crew, to bring us home.
See you on the other side.
Good Night and Good Luck.

Kane has been in good form and has spent 25 overs out there reading the pitch I back his assessment of the pitch. If he goes before we get to the 40th over all bets are off.
Hoping Taylor is building this like his 100 against Pakistan in 2011 CWC, started similarly and built to a massive crescendo in the final 5 overs.
