ICC Champions Trophy 2025

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

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

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.

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

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?

Bones

That Jamieson drop feels very big now

Nah, sliding doors.

sparky

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

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

Except all the times that they’re not.

Bones

Jesus Christ Latham

sparky

A wicket! Pandya out for 18.

11 needed from 15.

sparky

4 wickets now would be epic.

ACT Crusader

Is there one more twist?

ACT Crusader

Jamieson cramped up Hardik, needs to do the same for these last 2 deliveries.

sparky

@ACT-Crusader 9 needed off 14. It would be one hell of a twist if India lost from here.
