Semi Final 1 - New Zealand v England (30th March)

[Pothas]

Has Munro played any county cricket? Reckon he would carve up

Played in the blast last year I am sure, for a suitably unfashionable county as well.

2 Jordan wides already. FFS Chris.

Solid start for NZ this. Exactly what they'd have wanted.

 

[King Pietersen]

Why is Chris Jordan still a thing?

Think we'll do well to get through the powerplay without too much damage, looking at conditions. Getting Guptill out a big part of that.

Just borderline 'too much damage' right now...

Am not that unhappy with this from an England point of view though.

Someone watching their first game of the world cup.

I think it is ok, as long as this over is not a disaster.

Heh

Garbage this from Plunkett. Way to straight.

 

[duffer]

Village from Plunkett so far.

 

[Howe_zat]

Keeps having good games that no one gives him credit for. Apart from Nasser Hussain, who loves him

Exhibit A

Why is Chris Jordan still a thing?

This post was made when Jordan had taken 0-12 off 2, making him the most ecomical bowler so far, and the game after he had taken a matchwinning 4-28.

He's not exactly the greatest, but it makes a bit of an unfair case when what gets posted is people giving him **** for doing literally anything.

Wasn't too much wrong there other than that third four, which was leg-side trash. Calculated risk from Munro in the last over of the powerplay paying off.

well **** you.

 

[Pothas]

well **** you.

Moderate level of disaster I would say.

 

[duffer]

Is there a more unenthusiastic commentator than Polly? Getting drowsy just listening to him.

 

[zorax]

Rashid not looping it. Disappointing.

 

[91Jmay]

Buttler should have stumped him there. Really slow hands. Dhoni would have taken him.

 

[Cabinet96]

Nice first over Adil.

 

[Howe_zat]

Nice first over Adil.

Seems happy to aim for 0-25, given his length there.
