CWC Semi Final - Black Caps v India
-
had to go to bed , up early this morning ,
What a great result,
We may never have the best cricket team in the world, but they do fight above their weight probably better than anyone .
Shaun graf ( ex aussie international, now runs victoria cricket ) actually said that to me

So India were lucky to come away with a point from the earlier rained out group game.

Henry did alright didn’t he..

@Bovidae nope I reckon we are a better chance against Aus. More familiar opposition and we know our bowling plans work against them. Just a matter of getting our batting right (tough ask but at least we know what we need to do)
Whoever it is they will know we have massive confidence going in. Against the odds, defended a relatively low score, the Kane and Taylor factor, the Boult factor, our fielding. We have a few chinks in the armour no doubt, but we sent a loud message to the other two sides today.

Shane Warne made an interesting point. Thinks that the experience NZ got from being in the last CWC will count for a lot.
Far more players stepped up to the mark in this game than in previous games - hopefully a good omen.

Would be bloody nice to beat Aus in the final though...
I'd even clear out the drain inspection chambers for that...
Oooh errr, can I watch the final at yours?

Just bring your own rodding set.

Santner was absolutely phenomenal in the middle stages. Just so you know.

Gee I was happy that Ganguly was in the commentary box for the first Indian batting overs. I don't like the guy and he had nothing to say when we were pummelling them except for begrudgingly saying that NZ were playing well.
Mark Nicholas was trying to generate conversation but even he was struggling to get words out of him.
Then they put another indian in the comms box with that lady and it was just awkward

Just watched the highlights on Sky UK.
Much as I like Ian Smith, he was embarrassing to listen to in this match

Ganguly was one of the biggest pricks while playing, hope he choked on this one.
