ICC T20 World Cup
-
Fucking owwwnneeed, fuck that's a satisfying win. Out spun the Indians at home, 4 for Santner, 3 to Ish and 2 to Nate.<br><br>
The perfect start to a T20 WC in India is India getting their arses handed to them. Well played Black Caps

<p>6 singles an over will pretty much do it so India will get them 2 down unless.....the blackcap rollercoaster fires up. Nah that won't happen as there'll be no pressure on the Injuns</p>

<p>Yeah Glath, T20 dies in the arse as a spectacle the moment you can get away with conservative cricket shots, i.e. no need to invent anything</p>

Wild prediction time. A Ronchi innings will win us a big game.<br><br>

"...Ronchi hit 21 not out off 11 balls ..."<br><br>
Not match winning but useful in a low total. Promising. -
<p>Great game. Woke at 315am and check the score. Wasnt that enthused so back to bed. Then got up just before 5 and hit the gym to watch the indian <strike>chase</strike> capitulation which was just awesome.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>$2.60 at the TAB so a nice payout as well.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Most pleasing thing for me was that we won without any of big hitters racking up any real runs. T20 is often dominated but 1 or 2 big batting efforts. But none today. Hopefully they are still to come later in the tournament!</p> -

<p>Sure, I certainly didn't expect us to win over there but I know this team fights and fights but also has talent! Love the selections!</p>

<p>NZ Cricket are showing that when you focus on the process (working hard, trying your guts out, never giving up, being prepared), the results just seem to come. When you focus on 'what do I need to do to win', it becomes a damn sight harder.</p> -
<p>Have updated the OP to only show NZ times, so we have:</p>

<p>Is that a feral enough hashtag or can someone do better ?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Great time for it I must say especially seeing as I can have a big sleep in next morning. Strangely enough I do enjoy watching cricket on the other side of the world late at night when it's cold. Gotta be encouraged by the BCs game though cos surely the batting won't fail twice in a row.</p> -
<p>Forgot to mention - it was a great sight to behold seeing the Indian fans leaving the ground in droves before the last wicket fell. I will savor that moment.</p>

While I sat through our mauling by oz in the CWC final at the MCG to make matters worse this Indian girl swore and bitched and moaned about how poor we were, and how India should have been in the game instead (neglecting the fact that the Indians were strangled in the SF by the oz). She went on and on in such a profane manner I was sorely tempted to tell her what I thought but sucked it up. I wonder how the silly carnt enjoyed this morning's game?
