***Official*** Second Semi-Final: New Zealand vs. Pakistan

[Uppercut]

Reverse swing.

 

[Hurricane]

Afridi has bowled well. We need to get a move on here.

Enter a out of the ground Ross Taylor six

 

[Hurricane]

Ross Taylor hits it out of the ground. Hopefully they will have to get a new ball that won't reverse.

Gone!!

 

[Howsie]

Stupid

 

[Uppercut]

Comeback from Afridi. What a bowler.

 

[Fusion]

Nice!

 

[brackenNY]

Match just swung in Pak's favor.

Vettori promotes himself. Regardless of whether it's the right move, I love that he's taking responsibility .

Yeah agreed.

 

[Hurricane]

Hopefully Vettori will tick it over.

 

[Raghav]

I am completely confident that NZ will win this as Vettori came in to bat early...He gets the strike rotating before he can take the powerplay and take advantage of it

 

[Uppercut]

Have to fancy New Zealand from here. 102 runs from 19 overs. The only concern is Umar Gul's ability at the death throwing a spanner in their plan to slog in the last ten.

Pakistan really are a fascinating team to watch.

 

[AaronK]

i honestly thought he would be bowled the next delivery.. lol

but anyways.. a very unnecesary shot.. there by Rose taylor

 

[GGG]

bat to number 11, have to still fancy our chances.

 

[Hurricane]

Elliot needs to rotate the strike here. His SR is 55

 

[Raghav]

This is one of the reason why I suggested in this forum that Vettori should bat up the order; may be at 5 or 6. He is so easy in taking singles & twos...

 

[Beleg]

Game on.

Advantage NZ.

Shahid Afridi is an idiot.

 

[Hurricane]

Great shot Elliot - I was wondering if we were just going to play out Afridi.
