C'mon New Zealand

 

[010203]

We won't be hearing from Big Dos who is back in Queensland.

 

[010203]

Well done to Mohammed Shami who at least acknowledged that India has an advantage by playing all their games in Dubai.

 

[Moonwatcher]

India had the advantage in the 2023 WC final. It wasn't enough for them. If NZ want it , it's there for the taking.

 

[grumbleguts]

I hope New Zealand win for all the long suffering Kiwi supporters,
I hope India win for Plugger.

 

[eltrain]

On one hand I don’t care too much about this tournament, but on the other I really, really don’t want India to win it.

 

[Plugger35]

First blood to the Black Caps with Santner winning the toss again and taking the option to bat first like we did against South Africa

Matt Henry out injured for Nathan Smith is a blow to our chances though.

 

[MJG14]

Rohit has lost 12 consecutive tosses.

 

[Bedi]

This would've been box office in a full house in Pakistan

 

[Plugger35]

A decent crowd there and of course most of them are supporting India so this is like another home game for them.

The brave Black Caps are up against it so it will be a win for the ages if we can knock them over and win the trophy.

 

[Plugger35]

This would've been box office in a full house in Pakistan

If this final was played in Pakistan, the majority of the crowd would have been supporting NZ.

 

[Bedi]

If this final was played in Pakistan, the majority of the crowd would have been supporting NZ.

99.99% yes. Apparently was like that for the 87 WC in Calcutta for Aus v Eng

 

[Bedi]

shot!

 

[Plugger35]

Ravindra breaking the shackles after a slow start.

Ravindra breaking the shackles after a slow start.

They're on the way, all while Ravindra further establishes himself as one of the most exciting ODI batsmen in the world

 

[BrownYouGun]

Empty crowd for a final featuring India shows what a farce this whole tournament has been

 

[Bedi]

worst ball of the tournament

 

[Bedi]

good comeback

 

[Plugger35]

Shami dropping Rachin and now doing the old pretend that he is injured trick so he doesn't get blamed for dropping it.

 

[Bedi]

not out

 

[BrownYouGun]

India try not to cheat challenge [Impossible]

 

[Bedi]

Ravindra would want to go on with this as he has survived a billion chances

 

[MJG14]

Ordinary call from Reiffel
