ICC Cricket World Cup 2019

[Spoony]

If we start the batting tomorrow on a sunny dried out pitch, we should be chasing 250 comfortably. Especially given how deep our batting goes.

No sun tomorrow. Overcast all week.

 

[Edgar Allan Pillow]

Would rather have both teams completing 50 tomorrow than some rain curtailed 20 over joke of a chase

20 overs. If this cannot be done, they have a reserve day and even if that's washed out, then super over if it can be played. If even that is not possible, Ind goes through.

 

[prateik]

NZs best hope.. they play 50 overs and it rains after that bringing DLS into play. They need all the help they can get.

 

[Samid]

20 overs. If this cannot be done, they have a reserve day and even if that's washed out, then super over.

Erm no. It's highest group stage rank.

 

[FlawlessThaw]

India go through if there's no more play, today and tomorrow.

 

[kps88]

What would be the target for a 20 over chase?

 

[Edgar Allan Pillow]

Erm no. It's highest group stage rank.

13.6.4 If the reserve day is allocated, every effort will be made to complete the match on the scheduled day with any necessary reduction in overs taking place and only if the minimum number of overs necessary to constitute a match cannot be bowled on the scheduled day will the match be completed on the reserve day.

13.6.5 If the match has started on the scheduled day and overs are subsequently reduced following an interruption, but no further play is possible, the match will resume on the reserve day at the point where the last ball was played. Refer Appendix F.

13.6.6 If a Super Over is required and the weather prevents it from being played on the scheduled day, it will take place on the reserve day.

Group rank applies only if super over is not washed out too.

 

[Edgar Allan Pillow]

Or maybe that applies only in a tie....I'm not really sure, tbh!

 

[Samid]

Group rank applies only if super over is not washed out too.

Super over only if it's a tie. No result = higher group rank.

 

[prateik]

What would be the target for a 20 over chase?

India's 20-over score would be 148

 

[kps88]

India's 20-over score would be 148

Hmm. Don’t see the rain effecting the result too much then. NZ’s best hope is it remains overcast and seams a bit tomorrow morning.

 

[harshad]

 

[Edgar Allan Pillow]

India's 20-over score would be 148

India should score 148 off 120 balls? That way harsher than NZs current NRR.

 

[prateik]

They are scoring at over 9 for the last 6 overs..

The idea is, if you have 20 overs and 10 wickets in hand, you have a huge advantage. 7.4/over isnt exactly difficult.

DL has always been harsh on sides chasing.

Thought it would be less than 7 rpo

 

[crappycraperson]

Not true. Plenty of teams batting first have been screwed by DL too.

Rain is getting heavier in the ground so basically either it stops and we lose some overs for some overs today or resume tomorrow as is.

NZ best chance us actually not having to bat again. Target will then be 237 off 46 overs. That's their best bet to defend a total on this pitch.

We need a total washout for play to resume tomorrow, if we lose like 3-4 hours they'll play a reduced game which will feck us over.

Any delay after 2 hours will lead to over reduction if Umpires inspect the ground and deem it ok to restart at some point today. Think last such inspection can take place around 6 UK time given the extension of 2 hours for today's play. So basically within next 3.5 hours.

Get a feeling this is where we'd miss Dhawan.

Rahuls a better Twenty20 player. He just needs to let loose

At this point, I hope today is a total washout so we get a full game tomorrow.

I don't want us to be chasing DLS targets on this sticky slow wicket.

 

[Edgar Allan Pillow]

In case New Zealand doesn't bat again, India's target in
46 overs will be 237
40 overs will be 223
35 overs will be 209
30 overs will be 192
25 overs will be 172
20 overs will be 148

All in favour of NZ except the 20 over one I'd think.

Hopefully it rains the whole day.

What's the cutoff before which we call the day off?

India must be praying that it keeps raining today because this is a joke, Potential target of scoring at 7 an over when NZ are going at 5.

 

[Ronaldo's ego]

Revised targets look pathetic. Surely it’s should be what the opposition were after the same amount of overs

 

[stepic]

that gives way too much of an advantage to the chasing team.

That would be beyond stupid.

they are at an advantage because a) they know what they need to score to win and more importantly b) they have 10 wickets in hand. 10 wickets in hand in reduced overs is a huge advantage to the chasing team.

Eh? Not sure why chasing team wouldn't have 10 wickets in hand if they haven't faced a ball.

Scoring at 7 with 10 wickets in hand vs 5 an over with 10 wickets in hand.

 

[Ronaldo's ego]

I’m just being biased, there definitely does need to be a middle ground though

 

[prateik]

Starting to lose overs now.. and the rain has slowed down.. Might get some cricket today.. with reduced overs.

 

[stepic]

i'm saying they do have 10 wickets in hand. with less overs and a reduced target to chase.

having 10 wickets in hand in 30 overs is a massive advantage over 10 wickets in 50 overs, hence the run rate required is weighted in favour of the side batting first.

That suggests 120 in T20 is as good a score as 300 in an ODI

Yeap. 40 over game would be ridiculously bad for us.

 

[Interval]

150 on this pitch will be hard. Also a fickin mockery of a SF.

Starting tomorrow with both teams getting 50 is the best

Unless mistaken I thought DLS Target is based on score of NZ (side batting first) and their remaining wickets and not how many overs other team will have remaining.

Especially when an economic bowler is bowling 3 of the last 5 overs.

 

[Grinner]

What's the forecast? Is play likely to resume?

 

[prateik]

Yep
