ICC World T20 Finals Discussion Thread

NZ v Eng tonight in the men's semi.

Aus v Eng in the women's semi.

Tomorrow night in the mens we have WI v India and NZ v WI in the women's.

Looking forward to the business end of what's been an enjoyable tournament overall.

Channel Nine covering the men's semis and the final.

Meg playing a nice innings.

Yuvraj ruled out of the world cup with an ankle injury. Manish Panday (the one who scored that brilliant century to chase down the total v Australia this summer in a ODI) his replacement.

I would bring him straight in bat him at 4, Dhoni 5 and Raina at 6. Rahane needs to come in the top 3 as he needs time at the crease- unless you drop Dhawan for him. Love Rahane the test player but not sold on him in limited overs yet. Is a pleasure to watch though.

England need 45 (40) with 9 wickets left in the women's semi.

Looking forward to England and NZ tonight. I don't really have a soft spot for either team so will be watching as a genuine neutral. Hoping for a cracking match cricket-wise.

 

[Aussie_boy]

Well that's how you throw away a match. Almost as bad as Bangladesh the other day.

 

[whats_at_stake]

Hahaha not sure how England lost this.

Going for the Kiwis tonight.

Yeah not a bad call on dropping Raina down to 6. He's better off as a finisher.

NZ v Eng should be a close game...Do you go on form or the skill on paper?

Its a coin toss this one

Glad channel 9 are still televising the semis despite Australia being out

James Vince at shorter odds to top the runscoring than Eoin Morgan...the magic of the pre-tape!

 

[DT_fanatic]

England win the toss and choose to bowl first, that probably suits NZ as they've won batting first in this tournament.

On the flip side England chased down 220+ against the Saffers. They probably feel more comfortable chasing so both sides playing to their strengths.

 

[Andronicus]

Feel dirty for saying this, but really hoping by England win this one.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

What's a decent score 170+

 

[LukeParkerno1]

You need 180 on this track as a minimum you would assume.

 

[G Mus]

Plunkett bowls some pure pies sometimes

 

[eddiesmith]

lol Ronchi! Cant believe there is a team in the world who pick him

Was nearly going to say surely at this stage of the tournament bowlers have learnt that full tosses get dispatched into the stands 99 times out of 100!

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Kiwis stuffing it up big time.

Should have the bowlers to get it done.

 

[Torz]

Fair comeback from Stokes. 0-20 off his first two and now has 3-25 from 3.2.

Not that it's all come from good deliveries, mind you.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Not sure who I want to win less...if England win then Plugger is annoyed so maybe go England lol

 

[Torz]

Hoping NZ win this one, but that was some impressive death bowling from the Poms.

 

[The Speaker]

pls win nz

 

[Special Agent Utah]

Terrible last 6/7 by NZ.

Three full toss wickets, should have and needed 180.

England from here I think

 

[Special Agent Utah]

16 off the first and NZ in massive trouble

 

[G Mus]

RIP group stage heroes

 

[Special Agent Utah]

Williamson with some interesting decisions. Had to be a spinner here IMO.

NZ no chance now
