CWC Semi Final - Black Caps v India

I wanted 200 around the 40th, we got there around the 45th.
Ugh that's a soft dismissal.

Not out, hah! Let's hope makes the most of it.
The shot of the WAGs celebrating was utterly cringeworthy

And now comes the rain. Definitely helps India. They've had the best of the fielding conditions.

Kane has to own that though, he won the toss. A bit of moisture on the pitch before we bowl isn't terrible.

Wasn't the rain predicted? Why the fuck not bowl?
It's not only the coaching, it'a not only the shit form of some (I'm looking at you Guptil, sens your fucking wife home), it's also the captaincy.
They knew rain was expected at lunchtime. Smithy thought the pitch would play better, it seems to be pretty slow. If we had put up a big score DL would be working for us. But true to form we didn't. We should have played to our strengths and given Boult Henry and Ferg a crack early

I don't think the pitch is anywhere near as bad as the crappers have made it look.
Well, we also know the Indians have an excellent bowling attack, so it was never going to be easy - but, this has definitely not been a road.
I'm pretty disappointed we didn't put them in. We've beaten them twice this year by inserting them on difficult pitches and knocking them over. Chance to do it a third time here.
That said, if we can get 250 then if the pitch is tricky - a couple of early wickets and panic will hit the Indian ship!
