Indian Cricket Tour of NZ 2020

[Donsteppa]

Cricket was feeling great until the early hours of 15/7/2019.

[canefan]

We choked like dogs

[Gunner]

arrrrggggghhhhh sat up all night for this, FML

[Bovidae]

Oh, what could have been.

Smith is fuckin' annoying!!!

[mariner4life]

Fucking hell. Just bowl in the slot then Tim

[booboo]

Cricket is shut

[Godder]

Live by the yorker, die by the yorker.

Can I just say, STOP FUDGING DEMANDING FUDGING YORKERS.

[Siam]

If only we could have got Sharma out off the first ball...

If only we had a fielder who was allowed, say, gloves...

[Stag]

Why would you give Southee the ball in that situation? He has failed over and over under pressure in situations like that🤦‍♂️

[Chris B.]

Well, that was seizing defeat from the jaws of victory.

A bit of the Ilford 2nd XI about it!

[No Quarter]

Kane was absolutely sublime. Like on another level to every other player on the park. A match winning performance 10 times out of 10.

The rest of the team managed to pull out a choke for the ages. They should be embarrassed to lose that given Kane's performance.

[Gunner]

Still can’t believe the choke on the last over of the game proper.

After that 6 was hit it couldn’t have been much easier.

Choke of epic proportions

[Bovidae]

It shouldn't have even gone to a super over. Kane and/or Ross should have won it after doing all the hard work.

So close to the pinnacle of the hundred in a losing effort

That was worse than club standard keeping. I get we want a keeper that can bat, but for f*ck they still need to be able to keep up to club level.

[Donsteppa]

I can't believe I'm looking forward to seeing rugby before the end of March...

[Gunner]

Well bed time... kid no.2 will be awake in a few hours wanting a feed, and I can’t pretend to sleep through it with the Mrs being away.
Fudge.

I think actual keeping ability sometimes gets forgotten in these keeping all-rounder discussions, but he also basically failed with the bat, so we didn't get anything out of him.

Didn't they win? At least one game?
