2023 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Game 6 New Zealand v Netherlands 9/10 1900hrs @ Rajiv Gandhi Stadium

[corbies]

Doesn't Santner usually duck the last ball of an innings during a World Cup?

 

[NYRB]

Feels a bit too much for the Netherlands , having to chase 323 to win.

But hey , funnier things have happened in cricket....

 

[HK_Hawk]

The Dutch would have to be really disappointed with those last 2 overs.... especially that last over. The last delivery (well, not quite last) free shot that went for 6, and then a follow up 6 on the follow up. That's 12 bonus points that should not have been.

Hyderabad gets its last game tomorrow here. Surprised they are playing back-to-back games here.

 

[NYRB]

can he the commentators Katey Martin talking with fellow commentator in the background saying something like "he can bat" when bas De Leede departed.

 

[NYRB]

Nidamanuru should have been running 2 there every day of the week.

 

[NYRB]

That was a 'lowie' from Lockie Ferguson

 

[NYRB]

This wicket is playing a bit like the one in Chennai between Australia and India. Its got harder as the game has gone on.

NZ have played according to the wicket. Havent gone gung-ho just because its the Netherlands.

but NZ get a run out a few balls later.

 

[NYRB]

Nidamanuru has to go .........thats some horror running between the wickets there. Think you have to put Ackermann to blame for the call.

 

[NYRB]

Colin Ackermann owes Nidamanuru a carton after this game.

 

[NYRB]

Scott Edwards wont have much time to have a look-in today.

 

[NYRB]

Thought that LBW looked close on 1st look. Gathering height might be an issue.

 

[NYRB]

I like Scott Edwards as a cricketer. Always looks busy. I just keep thinking to myself given his Aussie roots- why we h havent seen him much in the Aussie circuit at a higher level eg state

 

[NYRB]

Ackermann gets his 3rd 50 in One Day Internationals. Came at a good click too.

 

[NYRB]

Thought Scott Edwarsd gloved that on 1st look..........

 

[NYRB]

I reckon it hit his 2nd glove.

 

[HK_Hawk]

Went nowhere near the second glove. What drugs are you on?

 

[NYRB]

Wow I was wrong.


Ian Smith reckons thats a 'great decision'

 

[NYRB]

Went nowhere near the second glove. What drugs are you on?

I dont think there was conclusive enough evidence to suggest it did hit the gloves.

I would have given it on 1st look though.

 

[NYRB]

I thought on 1st look, it may have brushed his sleeve/glove at the same time........but ultra edge I dont think would be able to pick it up.

 

[HK_Hawk]

I dont think there was conclusive enough evidence to suggest it did hit the gloves.

I would have given it on 1st look though.

Clearly bounced in a very sharp upwards trajectory off the first arm and daylight between the ball and glove/arm. Side view showed that pretty clearly, though couldn't blame a call either way in real time.

 

[NYRB]

Ackermann departs for a well compiled 69 off 73 balls.

 

[HK_Hawk]

That was absolute stupidity that shot. He was going along fine, score ticking over, and plays that garbage. That's two wickets he's thrown away in this chase.
