So according to ZB we’re in the semis no matter what but I thought Pakistan could still get in ?
If Pakistan bat first and score 308+ more runs than the Bang bros.

Ok so safe to say we’re in and probably don’t deserve it

Even if Pakistan did it they would be kicked out of the tournament because they would have rigged the match.

Proud moment. Went to bed just before a mate I went to Uni with streaked. A glorious site to wake up to all over social media. Well done that man!

@Darren Yep, Nicholls was injured for game one, possibly game two.
In hindsight I wonder about some minor rotation during the pool games. There's the "don't change a winning team" argument, but I'm sure the Aussies have made a change here and there throughout.

Not sure if Stead has any clue. Young hit three centuries against Australia and they didn't pick him, but went with the out of form Munro instead. Sure he had surgery lined up, but that could have been postponed.
Needed to pull the plug on the Munro experiment the moment he got the gig (keep in mind Munro was Heeson's call) and give guys like Young and Blundell an opportunity instead.

I dont rate Stead as a coach/selector and think the Black Caps could be heading for some dark times.
Hesson made some big selection calls and most of them turned out to be quite inspired. Stead seems to have no clue.But I actually really like our chances of rolling Aus. As the AB's have discovered knockout round are a different kettle.
I predict a NZ England finalI am sure that would get good odds.

Beteasy is telling me England are now favoured ahead of India to make the final

Yep. I wasn't happy when he was chosen as Hesson's replacement. Bradburn was my choice. At least he knows how to coach a team to beat England.
We need to find a better batting coach than the departing McMillan too.
I didn't see any of the match after checking the current score when getting home late last night (161/1 IIRC). Entirely predictable when I heard the result this morning.
If it's going to be Aust In the SF show some fuckin' aggression and take the game to them - win or lose.

I went to bed after Kane got out.
To come to the defense of the Caps a little bit, Nicholls was given out LBW when it was missing (why didn't he review? Didn't look out live), Guppy was strangled down the leg side, and Kane was runout by a tin-arse finger tip right when he was building a partnership with Rosco. Those were pretty unlucky dismissals and basically killed our run chase before it started.

need some motherfuckers to channel one CZ Harris from 1996. Actually Germon too. That's about digging in and giving yourself a chance even when things have started disastrously.

Hilarious streaker provides highlight of Black Caps match against England
A streaker provided some entertainment that the Black Caps lacked for the Chester-le-Street crowd in New Zealand's heavy World Cup defeat to England this m
