2023 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Game 11 New Zealand v Bangladesh 13/10 1900hrs @ MA Chidambaran Stadium

[NYRB]

Shoriful Islam in at 10.

 

[NYRB]

2 wickets left and 5 overs to go, probably need to see the next 3 overs safely than a licence to launch.

 

[NYRB]

I agree with Ian Smith, New Zealand will be happy to see Mahmudullah at the non-striker end.

 

[NYRB]

thats a big no-ball from Henry

 

[NYRB]

4 No-balls from New Zealand today.

 

[NYRB]

Mahmudullah refusing the singles in the 47th over.

 

[NYRB]

Mahmudullah clearly doesnt back the number 10 here.

 

[NYRB]

NZ's middle order yet to be tested at this World Cup. Bangladesh need a few early wickets, especially the one of Conway

 

[NYRB]

Simon Doull reckons New Zealand chase it down in the 43rd over.

Also reckons Ravindra will be the more attacking opening batsman coming out to bat.

 

[NYRB]

Circumspect start from the Black Caps here 15/1 off 5.0 overs.

 

[Moonwatcher]

That would have been huge

 

[NYRB]

Tough chance there for the 2nd wicket for Bangladesh. Those are the catches you need to take if your defending a lowish target.

 

[Moonwatcher]

NZ looking better since the drop

 

[Moonwatcher]

Is that drumming sound real or just a recorded sound?

 

[Moonwatcher]

Probably real, the Bangas fans bang the drums like the Sri Lankan fans.

Sri Lankans go nuts with the drums. Great atmosphere.

 

[Moonwatcher]

That's a terrible review, Conway missed that by a mile.



It's a shame there aren't more of them there, we get more of them to games in Australia.

It seems like only the Indian fans are turning up in numbers for this World Cup.

I doubt there will be many Pakistan fans at the game against India tomorrow night.

India wouldn't be viewed as a tourist friendly country in terms of transport / facilities.

 

[Moonwatcher]

NZ in control

 

[Moonwatcher]

Even with the T20 WC in Australia last year it would have been mainly fans of international teams that live in Australia.

 

[largebus]

Have there been any close games in this world cup yet? Terrible tournament for neutral viewing.

 

[HK_Hawk]

That was a horrible decision on the rope. Either tap it back in for a catch or at least to prevent a six. Simple decision regardless, you need to tap that back in. Horrendous.

 

[HK_Hawk]

Seriously, the carry on for that? Williamson' cry about a thrown ball hitting his padded glove.

 

[HK_Hawk]

So nice for the male commentators to give a little bit of condescending reference to women's cricket. Nice to have a gate named after you, while the big boys claim stands... hmmm

 

[NYRB]

Williamson looks like an old man , injured, a tad slow and in the injury zone. I know he scored 70 odd tonight but this might be his last ODI world cup.

 

[NYRB]

Williamson looks like he is in the wars.

 

[HK_Hawk]

Williamson going off.

Hopefully that injury isn't too bad, would be just our luck to get him back from a knee reco and then we lose him with a broken thumb.

He's looking like a precious petal at this stage.
