@ACT-Crusader said in Black Caps v India - Semi Final:
We have a few chinks in the armour no doubt, but we sent a loud message to the other two sides today.
Shane Warne made an interesting point. Thinks that the experience NZ got from being in the last CWC will count for a lot.
Far more players stepped up to the mark in this game than in previous games - hopefully a good omen.

Well that was a good piece of news to wake up to.
Matt Henry bowling extremely well. Fancy that.
Just call us Pakistan 1992....we got this fellas.
Santner was absolutely phenomenal in the middle stages. Just so you know.

Gee I was happy that Ganguly was in the commentary box for the first Indian batting overs. I don't like the guy and he had nothing to say when we were pummelling them except for begrudgingly saying that NZ were playing well.
Mark Nicholas was trying to generate conversation but even he was struggling to get words out of him.
Then they put another indian in the comms box with that lady and it was just awkward

Just watched the highlights on Sky UK.
Much as I like Ian Smith, he was embarrassing to listen to in this match

Yes, looking forward to his latest tweet.

Ganguly was one of the biggest pricks while playing, hope he choked on this one.

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...
Fair point but do you want to be playing the home side who happen to be the top ranked team also...?
I don't care who we play.
I don't care if we roll over like Melbourne.
Massive bonus to make the final.
We have nothing to lose let's play like it.

Went to bed after 20 overs knowing at least there would be a result.
Well done Blackcaps and @Baron-Silas-Greenback for being bang on the money.

With just the bonus points deducted from Baron’s crystal ball for Matt Henry being awarded Man of the Match

He's not the soothsayer he wants to be but he's the soothsayer we need!

He was, but he needed to balance out the pro India crap from the rest of the box.
Look, I know we are shit, flaky and have our limitations. But when you are 11-3 and hit a boundary, commentating “Normal Service resumes” is straight out disrespectful.
