That’s the ICC championship gone with that Jamison drop

Trent Boult at Lords moment right there

[sparky]

Shreyas gone! India four down.

[Bones]

Yes boys.

I do find it funny that yet again the opposition have been dominating NZ again according to the commentators, despite them being in almost exactly the same position.

[sparky]

Two quick wickets and this gets interesting. 62 to win in just more than 10 overs.

[sparky]

India need 49 off 49 with 5 wickets left. An exciting finish coming up, although it feels like India still have the advantage.

[Bones]

And another! A lifetime wellington rugby, blackcaps and occasional wahs fan and I still haven't learnt not to get my hopes up.

[sparky]

@Bones Yes. It's the hope that kills ya. Every time.

[sparky]

Satnav's done a grand job here of applying the breaks.

[sparky]

Seven overs left. India need 46 runs to win. Game on!

[sparky]

Can the NZ seamers do anything apart from going for lots of runs?

[sparky]

Half volley, smashed for 4 and the Indian fans in the crowd are noisy again.

[sparky]

Horrible over for New Zealand.

[sparky]

26 needed from 29. Advantage with India now.

251 was 25-35 runs too short.

[sparky]

21 needed from 24 balls. I think India are going to do this with an over or two to spare.

That Jamieson drop feels very big now.

Like the last time we played a final in Dubai

[Bones]

The fuck Latham. And how was it wide when it was well inside the line with the batsman backing away?

Nah, sliding doors.

[sparky]

India are a steely, ruthless 50-over side to be fair.

Except all the times that they’re not.
