[Cricket] 2019 Cricket World Cup

[Willow]

The Kiwi's will be underdogs, and rightly so, but they do have match winners in their side and if they click then game on!

I don't think the toss is quite so crucial in these conditions. Quite fancy a bowl for the Kiwis.

 

[Willow]

India are waaaaaaaaay too strong for NZ. The Kiwis have got one world class player, three or four very good ones and some plodders. India have got a couple of world class players and a whole heap of very good ones

Two world class players, thank you very much, and Ross Taylor would get in most sides too

A rather old chestnut would be to pick a 'combined' team. On form Ferguson and Williamson would get in. Anyone else, I wonder?

NZ win toss and BAT

Trent Boult would be a shoe in for any team, ahead of Ferguson.

Good call for Boult who has the pedigree and has had a good CWC. But on form Ferguson is on fire. I think I'd put them both in, with Bumrah and probably Shami.

By world class I mean would get into a combined World XI to take on Mars in the first Interplanetary Cup. Williamson would be a shoo-in, I'm not sure that Ferguson or Boult would be. Better than Bumrah, Shami, Starc, Archer, Cummins or Afridi? Nah.

NZ are very over rated. Having said that I'll probably wake up to hear they won the game, by some weird rule via the weather.

Love to see India fall here. Doubt they will after the start. Think Kholi has been an awful Captain this year. Constantly moaning. Shouting. Getting in peoples faces. This is cricket.

Be lucky to make 200 here

It’s like watching paint dry. Maybe they have a cunning plan but I can’t see it at the moment

The cunning plan seems to be that they will have to bowl India out for around 220...... Hmmm.

 

[Pevenseagull]

gotta try and get another 50 off the last 5 overs and I'm guessing Bumrah has 3 of them,

 

[schmunk]

So, covers on, D/L/S?

 

[Willow]

I hope they can get the game back on today. The Indian batsmen may struggle to deal with a swinging ball in these conditions.

If they come back on India will need 148 of 20 overs. Wouldn’t fancy that in these conditions.

Play suspended for day.

Reserve day tomorrow.

Rain? In Manchester? Bloody unlucky...

That's a shame, I fancied NZ to win that tonight. India firm favourites tomorrow.
