So go England?
Surely better off playing a side that hasn't been there, done that before? Would be bloody nice to beat Aus in the final though...
Feel the same. They are absolutely playing with house money at this point so whoever wins I'm fine with. Aussie would make any win sweeter, but England do have the propensity to fold under pressure so we have a better shot.

This game is already over
NZ will go do well to get 225 runs let alone sniff 250 runs
I think the Kiwi based TSF members can have an early night
Spot on as always.
Just a friendly. The other teams are building for 2023.
Well to be fair, ol' Nostradamus there predicted the kiwis could get an early night. Predicted we'd be lucky to get to 225 (we were very lucky to get 239). And obviously predicted a kiwi win, game was already over.

I'd even clear out the drain inspection chambers for that...

My strategy to reverse the Curse of the Meldrew's obviously worked.
At 192-6 with 5 overs to go, I gave up watching and tidied up the garage.
Possibly not as bad as it sounds?

You keep thinking of me how sweet of you
I was accurate in 2 out of my 3 prediction eh....
Indians were in celebration mode having gone for a night out
You might have also caught later messages where I stated it would take a fecking miracle for NZ to win
Miracles do happen

Good joke man
Only a different sport and context & you're spot on
This is mildly amusing
Amount of folks here who have me on their mind

Surely better off playing a side that hasn't been there, done that before? Would be bloody nice to beat Aus in the final though...
Fair point but do you want to be playing the home side who happen to be the top ranked team also...?

@junior said in Black Caps v India - Semi Final:
@Bovidae nope I reckon we are a better chance against Aus. More familiar opposition and we know our bowling plans work against them. Just a matter of getting our batting right (tough ask but at least we know what we need to do)
Whoever it is they will know we have massive confidence going in. Against the odds, defended a relatively low score, the Kane and Taylor factor, the Boult factor, our fielding. We have a few chinks in the armour no doubt, but we sent a loud message to the other two sides today.

Of any team in world cricket, I reckon home ground advantage would probably be least in favour of England.
