CWC Game #9 Black Caps v England

[hydro11]

3 of our bowlers actually have economy rates 5 and under.

[booboo]

Well I shall sacrifice myself on the alter of "if I'm not watching we'll take wickets" ... I'm off to bed.

Southee on 11.5....

@Squirrel they'll struggle to get to 300 at the rate of decline

[No Quarter]

We are getting fucking owned

[mofitzy_]

They hit form just as we slump it seems.

[mariner4life]

It's still 2007 vs Australia in Hamilton. 350/9 we got.

[westcoastie]

@hydro11 we're so screwed

[Paekakboyz]

Kane needs to bowl asap I reckon. Fuck, throw an over to guppy. Cant be worse than the shite we are serving up.

[No Quarter]

This is difficult to watch. @booboo might be time for you to piss off to bed to buy us a couple of wickets.

[No Quarter]

A flat pitch definitely plays to England's strengths. Hitters all the way down.

[Mokey]

We are gonna get slaughtered. England are on the up, and we are on the down. Of course doesn't help that we lost Lockie, but now our mostly average bowling attack is up against a whole bunch of in form batsmen determined to book their place.

[Donsteppa]

Jimmy! Jimmy Neesham!

[hydro11]

Not a great ball from Neesham but we have to take it.

[No Quarter]

The collapse is on.

All these Pakistanis on twitter cheering that wicket like it just won the World Cup, lol.

[rotated]

I have no idea how you pick a bowling attack for a semi final out of these last three games.

Santner has been dire. Sodhi and Southee have had one game a piece and not impressed. Henry has been up and down (but perhaps both Sodhi and Southee would have been too if given similar opportunities).
