That was expected from Kohli. For all his plaudits he does not have a power hitting game like say AB de Villiers/Buttler or our own Rohit.

Called it 2 hours ago.

NZ did dhoni in last over

This is why Hitman is always in the team, every 3rd innings he can be a genuine bona fide match winner.

Also why we need a pure hitter down the order too instead of safe steady players. Players who can change the game by themselves. We had yuvraj in 2007

Feel bad for Kane

Correct.

 

This is why this lineup is asinine.

 

There is obvious holes and issues with it. Pandya returning and if in form, really changes the dynamics of it though.

 

We need one of Samson or Pant (or both) to play to their best and force themselves into this team, they are match winners.

Its bad luck that we have only 1 hitter ans he is opener

 

better try Rohit @ 3 down and rahul pant can open

Only NZ can pull off something like this  Our good old friend SOuthee was timely with his generosity

Conceding two 6s in the last two balls was awful.

I wouldnt change the opening order. Our top 4 are world class. We need Pant and/or Samson at 5 and 6.

[SRT100]

Harsha Bhogle is still fapping over this result tonight lol.

[SRT100]

I wish India were brave and brought in one of the kids from the World Cup u19.

 

Youthful exuberance would be massive in this team.

[Lannister]

Bumrah was an expensive bowler today and guess what, the captain genius chose him to bowl the super over.

Southee joins the elite league of trundlers

 

Gets regularly smashed 

Southee is same as what bhuvi is to us...designated end over expert who are nothing but knuckle ball trundlers.

[SRT100]

Can anyone confirm if this is the first T20 to be played over two calendar days?

 

Did this game finish after midnight in NZ?

[Pratik77]

So this match counted as tied match won in super over or won as match goes...cause in won matches it's not showing in statsguru...

Exam khatam hone de, bachhe ki. Jaan lega kya uski.

Rohit is just an epic match winner. 

 

Too good.

Bhuvi was the Yorker expert way before shami or bumrah was. You are jerking shamis death overs last few matches but that's what bhuvi used to every game before his injury 

[SUMO]

Kohli would have picked harbhajan instead of Joginder sharma. After losing come out to justify that we went with senior pro in pressure situation.

 

He just lacks out of the box gambling to win an ICC tournament.
