CWC Semi Final - Black Caps v India

Cyclops

So one thing I'm unclear on is what happens once our innings finishes. Do they have a full lunch break, or is there a shortened change of innings? Seems weird to start for 15 minutes or whatever it takes and then bugger off for half an hour.

Probably not unlike the second day of a test if a team is 9 down. I imagine any break will be minimal

Nicholls being interviewed....interesting to hear only 2 totals of 250+ have been chased down in the tournament.

I'd say in the interests of wanting to get India over the 20 over mark so it's seen as a fair game, they would be against a long innings break.

Both - a short innings break, then lunch at the normal time.

Your cricket knowledge in the last month or so has been nothing short of staggering

Hopefully these guys can hit a few into the MAX zone.

No Quarter

We're running well between the wickets but we really need a boundary or three.

Yeah nice one NQ...

No Quarter

That's some bullshit

Squirrel

As far as Taylor run outs go, that's one of the better ones

Bones

@booboo go to bed.

O for Awesome.

Mokey

Fark the Craps are tough to support sometimes. Two shit dismissals in two balls.

Mokey

@Bones Or at least threaten to so we can get some fours.

No Quarter

Not too bothered about wickets at this stage! 7 is a bloody good craps over when there's 2 wickets.

Bones

Batting looks pretty easy on this pitch...

We will have to play out of skins to be any chance.

No Quarter

India need 240 to win.

I'd call that even this morning. We didn't get away but we also didn't collapse in a heap.

India overall strong favourites, but an early wicket or two will change things very quickly.
