Chapman Phillips both of them are unlike Kiwi chumps who choke against Poyzz... 

One is a Saffer & other is a Hong long product 

I think we all have to be wary of Chapman. Dude is like a left-handed AB/Buttler.  And honestly, I didn't expect KW to be hitting the ball so well. That long lay off probably helped.

Kane is only useless in 350+ par scores. Even in 320-330s, he can contribute with run a ball 50s. Semis and finals mostly will be sub 300 scores, so he will in the play definitely

His strike rate in 2019 world cup was 74 lol

I am watching full match by fast forwarding to boundaries. Seems like Kane is not fully fit. He was struggling when he took a quick 2. Borderline limping. Not 100% for sure.

We are crashing out from first round

Neesham is a monster hitter in these conditions along with Phillips.

Hyderabad is the game where Bracewell was batting like it was a video game in the second innings after it looked like Nzl would lose heavily due to dew. Wouldn't read all that much into how they batted in a warm up match here.

I wouldn't be so sure about that, on flat tracks you can score 350+ as we saw in 2003 finals, 2017 CT final & almost in 2015 SF as well.

Great chance to use part timers like Iyer for bowling vs England side.

 

Bumrah and Pandya can just bowl 4-5 overs and let part timers do more bowling.

I'm afraid there won't be any matches possible in Thiruvananthapuram with the amount of rain predicted and more to come. Another washout today. Australia wouldn't mind tbh. Netherlands play Ind on Tue and the forcast is the same ..RAIN

[nitinbwj]

This was the first time that any match was scheduled in Thiruvananthapuram. Why oh why Stupid BCCI..

[vvvslaxman]

They don't host anything at Mohali lol
