King Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 This was one top game. The ground was small and the pitch road but to get a tie after having scored 340 runs is quite unbelievable.
Willow_on_fire Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Awesome game...ends in a tie....absolute nail-biter....:two_thumbs_up:
Sachinism Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 what a game watched most of englands batting and then went to sleep got a call in the middle of the night telling me to watch it, coz NZ were probably gonna pull off a victory chasing 340 but i didnt get up :( now gotta catch the highlights
Mr. Wicket Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Who is How, How is this How ? How can anyone be named How ? :hysterical: How ? Wait until the tests. NZ might go with the opening combination of Cumming and How. Beats Cook and Mustard for bad pun potential :
amits Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 not surprising from a team which lost to sl in 37 overs in 2006 after making 324
talksport Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Hey Amits...Welcome Are you the Pure Indian
Laaloo Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 this is what cricket needs it doesnt need pakistan beating zimbs on flat pitches and having a parade it doesnt need too much of aus india it really needed this well played how
Ram Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 I saw the last 15 overs of the English innings. It was one of the flattest pitches imaginable, plus the side boundaries were so short that batsman could almost converse with the spectators. Collingwood had 6 sixes in his 50, but I thought the NZ bowlers bowled poorly, often pitching short on a ground with a small square boundaries. They showed England innings pitch map around the 48th over and there wasnt one, yes ONE yorker. I definitely thought the english would do better, but from the looks of it, they must have bowled poorly too. Isnt it a bit ironic that this series has produced a smattering of high scores, while across Tasmanian Sea, teams are struggling to even score 250 once.

Mr. Wicket Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 teams are struggling to even score 250 once. Did you see Mighty Mighty Ingerland's scores after the first 2 ODIs? :D

NZ chased 160 in 20 overs in the 2nd odi, which means batting conditions werent that bad. Idiots Eng, pi$$ed poorly when they had their chances. Now, the series is gone.
Ram Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 omg Om Gom Gom Gom Omg Omg Omg Omg Omg Yesssssssssssssssss what are you watching ... :giggle: :haha::haha::haha:
amits Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Hey Amits...Welcome Are you the Pure Indian i am not the pure indian, i am amit, 21 years old & from new delhi
Sachinism Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 whats amazing is that collingwood keeps going on about how impressed he is with the team as he felt till about the 44th over england were out of the game not at one point does he show dissapointment that england struggled to defend such a huge score
