CWC Semi Final - Black Caps v India

[Godder]

One more wicket probably does it, so I think this is worth a go.

[rotated]

Yeah go for broke here. Worst case scenario Boult should go for less than 4 and the run rate will keep ballooning.

How do you take Santner off? Dunno about Neesham, spin looks impossible to get away given the run rate.

[Mokey]

Oooh. RRR approaching 8. What will Dhoni dooooooo.

Not sure brining on Boult now is wise. Could have been a good opportunity to get through some CDG or Henry overs

Yup, but, a wicket will all but end the game as a contest.

Spot the new cricket fan.

8 now

[Bones]

That was pretty hilarious from Boult. Dhoni catches it on the end of his bat, ball drops straight down and Boult looks to the air/stands for the ball.

[booboo]

Jeez I hate cricket. I had a heart attack two years ago.

[Squirrel]

Required run rate over 8
(well it was before that 6)

[mariner4life]

How quiet is the ground?

[booboo]

Well.

[Mokey]

Fark, Neesh. No thank you.

Dhoni's gambling on having a crack at our weaker bowlers in the last 10 - let's take that away from him

Not very, now. Go back to orjn.

[Squirrel]

we have 3.2 more overs of Neesham/Colin to get through

[Damo]

And 3 overs of Henry as well. He's gotta get on again soon.

[Donsteppa]

Banish Neesh from the bowling crease for now...

[booboo]

You reckon that's why he took Mitch off ? To save a specialist?

[Mokey]

@Donsteppa That over went for 9, and his economy rate is 5.8. In the context of this game, pretty meh.

[rotated]

Surely, surely, surely given Santner and the Indian duo's returns Kane has to bowl at least an over. If Kane wasn't the skipper he would be on by now, the only reason would be to not undermine the other bowlers.

[Mokey]

Enough already with these farking wides!
