Santner vs these two is probably the game.
ICC Cricket World Cup 2019
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Yes remember watching him, hell even Ganguly got a few this way.
You’ve got your wish.
Buttler has got this. Form is temporary, class permanent.
Can't believe people here think England are in any danger of losing this.
Not many boundaries in this one. It’s disappointing for a World Cup final.
We made Santner look loke a peak Bapu Nadkarni... watch England make him look like Murli Kartik
Different kind of test.
Nikhil haha
Nz had a bunch of these niggly medium pacers. Harris, styris, astle, Lawson and I'm sure more
It’s strange that the World Cup has borne so little resemblance to the 4 years of cricket that has preceded it.
One of these two need ms to stick around until near the end. If the RR gets above 7 I’ll be worried, this isn’t a pitch you can go at 10s on. Especially if you’re down to 9, 10, 11.

Really?! They look shite and unconvincing, and are scoring like snails.
England's to lose now.
Another go at jinxing? One more wicket and they are in trouble.
England haven't a notion of losing this, If New Zealand had another 40 runs then maybe but it's there's to lose
Nothing in it for santner. Englands game now
???
I made the reference here before it was plagiarised.
100 runs in the last 15 with 6 wickets in hand is surely Englands to lose
England just ahead for me. These 2 just need to keep rotating the strike & then hitting the big shot when it’s there to be hit.
On a normal pitch maybe but not as straightforward on here and more so if they lose a wicket.
England arent losing this now
Yeah.. England look comfortable here.. NZ were in it for a bit.. This partnership has taken it away from them again.
It’s still only 1 wicket away from a big swing, so import these two just keep doing what they’re doing.
Well, there will have to be some fireworks in these final overs, so it should be fun from here on in.
This is brilliant batting from these two. No need to play risky shots but keep rotating the strike. Beautiful partnership
Stokes wicket is crucial.
Walk in the park this.
These two will win this for England.
Yep this is exactly what’s needed, just keep the scoreboard ticking and keep the slogging for the final overs if it comes to it.
Fully expecting one of them to do something stupid having said that
How soon NZ get the next wicket is the match. Within the next 25-30 runs and they’re right in this
I think if these 2 are still batting at 40 overs we’ll be ok.
Creeping up to 7 an over, England need to keep it below that.
Can Archer actually hit it? Atherton keeps mentioning him when talking about England's strength in depth but he's been pretty poor this WC.
Think he can hit a shot here and there like any tailender really but certainly wouldn’t depend on him.
This must be out, then.
Looked like it was going down in real time
It's not a high scoring pitch tbf, more a test of attrition and patience than a boom boom bangabang. Some top quality batsmen on both sides have/are struggling. Have to compliment bowlers on both sides. I think it's a fascinating game but I can see your point and it's probably 1 for the purist.
Phew!
Easily missing leg
Poor review
