First helmet wicket I've seen.  ----------------- ETA: fyi, this is why I like the 8 overs score x 3 formula ... more realistic and it was your first choice when we started calculating T20I. 8 overs 84x3 = 252 12 overs 152x2 = 304  ------------------ ETA2: Rumpole wrote: Skill as well as luck. Ya kinda need both You are SO right!. There WAS luck in NZ innings ... wild throws at wicket, dropped balls, Taylor not out.

Innings Break New Zealand 243/6 (20 ov) RR 12.15 Target for Australia 244 Req RR 12.2 This will be exciting to last ball... either side could win, or.... Wickets will fall early ===> Australian batting collapse. BTW I am "so old" I can remember when 243 was a good score in an ODI (50 over game)  In fact, when Rigor Richarson was opening for NZ... I think they would struggle to make 240 in 50 overs

I looked in the Cricinfo comments also googled, and I'm missing too much real time play ... searching. Please tell me what a "maiden 50 in T20I" means. THX. --------------- ETA: Both calculations 8 and 12 overs, show Australia is gonna hit their target, big time! Yeah, when Maxwell came up to bat, I thought "Oh no."

"Maiden" in this context means FIRST So whoever it was scored his first ever 50 (in T20I cricket) ----- In case you missed the explanation.... Wheeler bowled a second full toss above waist high.. which is illegal.. declared a no-ball.. and so its a run and a "free hit" and doing it twice means you are BANNED from bowling. That is why Bolt bowled the remainder of Wheelers part over. This also means Bolt can not now bowl his own (last over) since he has bowled in (max) 4 overs. |

Thank you. I should have figured that out. I can't remember which game I said was the most exciting I've seen (it was this year), but THIS ONE is the one. Never have seen a bowler taken out mid-over. |

Hamilton Weather A cloudy evening. Chance shower, but not enough to dampen the pitch or spectator spirits. http://www.metservice.com/towns-cities/hamilton |

I'm READY  AND I am not very chatty tonight, but won't miss a play. I finally got to see a coin toss, ESPN shows it since it is SkySports (and I was early watching). Please point out any odd, rare things that happen, like the bowler taken out mid-over the other night. Thx. --------------------- ETA: The cricket grounds is a ginger.  ETA2: Oh my goodness, David Lloyd is the most previous ever. I bet he can tell some great stories. ETA3: Ahh, thank you for the wicket smiley. Grinning big.

K Go your "not chatty" As mentioned... NZ win makes it simple.. they advance to final. (On Wednesday) IF England win... we could be mired in "difficult sums!!".. (NRR calculation...worse than a DL calculation) Basically England have to not only WIN... but demolish NZ... so... IMO England need to go like hell from the start... look to score 200+ at least. Then... they still have to restrict NZ well below the target (and/or take LOTS of NZ wickets) ----- Even as a NZ fan... it would be nice to see England get a big total so that the game remains exciting well into NZ's batting innings. So far, so good... England 22/0 * (2.0/20 ov) RR 11.00 |

Finally, they are playing Stereophonics' song! Enough of that gal singing ... the entire past two matches.  ---------------------- So after 12 overs 117x2 = 234 ------------------- ETA: I don't know who the gal is. Have noticed same song over and over. Probably someone popular I don't know about. It really bothered me the other night, thought about finding out who music director at Eden Park is. I was probably in a mood. LOL |

I DON'T think NZ are doing this right Rigor Richardson from the outset said NZ should just play for 175 Target... not 195 And apart from Munro... they are batting too slow to make 195!!! Typical of Richardson... go slow..... but the problem with batting slowly.. with a view to maybe upping RR later.. is it never happens.. and hardly the style they will need V Australia.. even if they scrape thru!! If Taylor is in soon... it could get even worse for NZ I'll go so far as to say NZ DESERVE to miss out on the 175 NZ CERTAINLY deserve to lose the game!! (get 175 but not 195) |
