2023 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Game 45 India v Netherlands 12/11 1900hrs @ M Chinnaswamy Stadium

[NYRB]

van de Merwe applying a bit of a squeeze here 14 runs off his 3 overs

Kohli looks like he would rather be sitting in the Pavilion.

Kohli looks like he would rather be sitting in the Pavilion.

I'm stunned he's 7 off 17, not like him to eying off another century at the detriment of the team total

 

[NYRB]

van de Merwe with a very good 5th over, just the 1 off.

 

[NYRB]

Kohli only averages 27.33 from 7 * games here. Not been a happy hunting ground for him.

 

[akkaps]

No one is really consistently middling the ball.

 

[NYRB]

Kohlis batting pace may have put pressure on Rohit to hit out there.

 

[Coolangatta]

India's beatable if you bat first.

 

[catstorm]

India's beatable if you bat first.

Also beatable if they don't have a doctored ball and wicket, but we know that's not going to happen at this tournament.

 

[NYRB]

Thats the Kohli we love and know, lovely 6.

 

[010203]

It's good to watch an Indian game without being reminded that it's somebody's birthday ad nauseum.

 

[NYRB]

Van de Merwe is really squeezing the Indians here.

Your happy to concede 6 runs an over on this wicket, all Day Mondays, Twice on Tuesdays.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

450 should be the aim

 

[NYRB]

this isnt the greatest innings from Kohli, quite alot of misses and mistimings today.

 

[NYRB]

i reckon van De Merwe has bowled today, warrants him a contract for IPL 2024. Bowled very well.

And out lol

Least the commentators don’t get to make love to him now

 

[MJG14]

Really like van der Merwe. Great competitor.

 

[NYRB]

Damn I too didnt realise till comms mentioned, India havent played in a week.

 

[NYRB]

Ravi Shastri mentioning that first time in World cup history, top 4 in the order have all scored 50+ runs.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Least get 400 will you

 

[Plugger35]

Least get 400 will you

They probably already have enough runs to win this game. getting to 400 would be nice for them but it's not like they need to get that many.

Love to see them get 400 plus then roll the Dutch for 60

 

[NYRB]

Iyer might have to retire here, arm looks a bit sore.

 

[Santana]

Love to see them get 400 plus then roll the Dutch for 60

Why?

 

[NYRB]

An Iyer injury should help NZ ahead of the semi-final
