Good start by NZ
ICC T20 World Cup 2021
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
England well on top. Big score incoming.
The England crowd 
Why are they checking that catch?
Not great from Bairstow. Time for Malan to step up.
Why are they checking that catch?
Marais and Dharmasena umpiring today. Bad omen for the Kiwis
Think if Malan hangs around for a bit, NZ become favourites
Cracking catch but poor from Bairstow. 40 off the powerplay doesn't seem fantastic. I think England need a big innings from Buttler again
Not a bad start, but given losing the toss Malan simply cannot dawdle now. Loads of power to come.
Decent start. NZ will want to get Buttler soon.
The sooner Malan fecks off, the better.
Hmmm
NZ once again showing what masters they are at game management

Did anyone else notice that cartoonish run box?
Huge moment. Buttler reviews.
Looks straight
Looked out & is out.
Gone. Good lad Sodhi!
Livingstone's chance to properly annouce himself.
150 looks a good score.
England in trouble here.
Massive wicket that
Would be hugely surprised if England won this.
Morgan's going to do a Dhoni here and send everyone else in front of him, I think
Need Malan to get in his zone.
Eng need a massive second half to their innings here. Can't say I'm confident our batsmen have the form to dig us out.
Seeing some very dramatic commentary here. Very even so far for me.
Wtf is that animation on the side?!
Did anyone else notice that cartoonish run box?
It's like something taken out of the Brian Lara cricket game.
MRF Tyres. So that's where they got the money to pay Lara, Tendulkar and Waugh.
Tough chance but a drop there
Looking tough for England from here
Decent enough launchpad for England. Need Livingstone or one of these to go big.
160 wins it I reckon.
160 wins it I reckon.
This feels so much like the ODI final. England struggling to get the ball away.
Yeah NZ keep things really tight and Buttler now gone as well.Looking tough for England from here
Still plenty of firepower to come though. Fingers crossed Livingstone can have one of those innings.
Go on Malan
Bad idea bringing on the part timer when you've already got 6 bowlers.
He's got his start now, that's always been the criticism. Should now see the hard acceleration.
Let's hope so, not so confident in Livingstone/Morgan. Need a big innings from Malan.
