25 off the over they said. Crikey.

Will these bowlers ever learn the value of yorkers?

That was Henry's problem. He doesn't have the variations to be effective at the death. Neesham is a better bowler at this stage as we are seeing. Henry was trying to execute but they just turned out as full tosses.

Henry can get farked.

[Machpants]

Choking here!

[Crazy Horse]

I knew we would get the win!

[hydro11]

Wow. Where would we be without Boult and Williamson. I wonder why Brathwaite tried to hit Neesham there. He should have waited for Henry.

[Machpants]

Ph3eeeeeeeeeew

[Baron Silas Greenback]

Henry.....

FFS

Yeah Neesham and Ferguson both bowled a lot of cutters and slower bouncers at the death. Henry's approach to bowling at the death seems completely different and hasn't really changed. What are the coaches doing?

[nzzp]

Good lord, I thought that was gone. What a catch from Boult.

Yikes, agonisingly close; should have put that to bed earlier. S till, we're into the semis now; good world cup. No pressure, just go and play

[Mokey]

Thank you Neesham for bowling like death bowling should. Fucking hell that was a terrible over from Henry and almost cost us the game. On a side note, I'm glad Brathwaite got his 100. He played bloody brilliantly.

The NZ WAGS hamming it up after the Cottrell wicket....that was cringe factor 100......

Oh dear @Baron-Silas-Greenback and @MN5 are going to have an interesting discussion after this game..

Henry is still a legend. He just struggles against the Windies, his bogey team. Still got a wicket, extremely important in the ‘context’ of the match.

[Cyclops]

Satisfying to see Neesham effective at the death. Gives us more options. Henry has had two poor games in a row now. Pakistan then England our next two games, be interesting to see if they bring back Southee or give Henry one last game.

Edit, fixed a wrong team name

[Hooroo]

I would have been happy enough to lose that to see someone draw their team from the ashes single handedly like that.

Immense match to watch

So embarrassing but not unexpected. Kiwi girls have a long way to go...

[Mokey]

Boult was way more Boult today thankfully. But now we have Pakistan, England and Australia and I'm worried about our bowling changes.

Both games today were excellent cricket matches. Sri Lanka vs England good too. World Cup finally coming to life, perhaps as teams start to adjust to the conditions?

Wasn't Henry also the wankstain that dropped Gayle first?

Boult us a legend
