Continuing the match from where it left off yesterday.

Are they continuing the match from where they were or starting over?

Sorry noob question!

Not really a noob question the way the rules for this WC are lol, if theyd have played last night theyd have shortened the game but as it rolled over they reset to where they left the field

Indian cricket fans are the worst. If you look at the replies to posts on Cricinfo on Twitter you'll see some truly dreadful stuff. The latest one I saw was a whole ream of Indian fans angrily dismissing the Cricinfo WC XI because they didn't pick Dhoni over Carey. Mental, Carey's been the best WK in the WC comfortably. They're so unbelievably biased, but the game breeds it, the ICC basically bow to India's demands and run the game how India want them to. The fact DRS took so long to be taken up worldwide was an absolute joke, every other nation were happy to use it except India, so it didn't happen.

Saw posts like how can you pick a best XI without Kohli and Dhoni.

they dont like the answer that Kohli has not been at his best, has captained poorly and behaved like a petulant child whilst Dhonis best days are long behind him and hes not in the top handful of keeper/batsmen

So DLS would have given New Zealand 237 if they didnt come back, they actually got to 239, maybe India werent as hard done by by DLS last night as their millions of fans wanted to claim

India should get these in their sleep but be nice to see Boult and Lockie get a couple early

Huge wicket getting Rohit cheaply!

[fundy]

Huge wicket getting Rohit cheaply!

[Dan2501]

Love it. This is exactly what this game needed.

 

[IanM]

Working from home today.... iPad on next to laptop... no great for productivity! (Be same when The Open is on!)

no doubt the BCCI will lodge a compliant and then insist that the review system is flawed

 

[Mudball]

Bumrah is due a century... today is the day...

Kohli has been saying for ages that umpires call should be out, pretty sure that wont apply to todays dismissal

Kinda ironic that on overly dry pitches for what we are used to over here the Manchester weather has brought more English conditions for the Indians semi final


Win predictor proving how awful it is again, had India at 98% earlier, still has them at 70%! Betting markets have them at 35%

or say it was unfair to play the next day... in harder conditions

Your hopes granted
Nice to see as well,could be a humdinger now

 

[IanM]

I just had a wee value bet on India.... kiss of death for them probably

 

[Dan2501]

Rishabh Pant is pure class.

 

[fundy]

what a catch that is from Neesham

 

[Dan2501]

That is a properly good catch

 

[patricks148]

the way this is going all the Indian "cricket" fans will be making a swift exit out the ground shortly
