How valuable is Glenn Philipps , first gets a quick century now dismisses the dangerman in the first over.

He's the best AR going around at the moment

This Fakhar Zaman is really a match winner only match winner in Pakistan…. Guy can decimate attack and play long inning as well. 

Their biggest matchwinner. Unfortunate to see the hype of Babar, Rizwan while FZ remains unsung.

IPL has been this way to quite a few nz player they keep on passing on them, may be their inability to win against ind in bilateral not exactly sure why that is could be because they do not have character not seen as stars ??? .

Most nz are multi-skilled and can play multi-role.

 

Southee is amongst highest t20i wkt-taker, allen, guptill, mitchell, etc. all find it hard to get ipl contracts.

NZ is gonna maul our useless team in CT. Will be a phainta of epic proportions, if Santner is unplayable on this type of patta, imagine him in Dubai. 

 

NZ has all bases covered, an exceptional pace attack as well. 

 

India needs something extraordinary like Iyer/Shami in the WC SF.

Yeah...if we bat first Santner will rout us on a dry afternoon surface. 

 

And if we are chasing, O'Rourk and Henry will tear us a new one under lights when the ball swings a lot in the twilight period. We are royally effed if we lose one to Pak or Ban.

I think lighting is an issue. He was unable to sight the ball.

I see no scenario of us beating them.  Talent on show is too hot for us.

Their bad/mediocre sides run us close or beat us in ICC events but probably first time ever they will have a genuinely superior side.

 

Would need all the luck in the world to stand a chance.

Santner man what a player.

India has played Santner relatively well in ODIs, though not dominating. If we bat first we have a chance.

Pakistan looking comfortable , at this rate should chase this easy. Williamson batted very slow , NZ were like 60 runs in 16 overs on this flat wicket.

We need to bat first and score big. Nz perenially bad chasers in sub continent conditions. Though we lost an ICC ODI Final to them which still hurts.

They have multiple bowling options. LA spin--Santner, Rachin. Off-spin- Bracewell and phillips.

Ind battes would have to play aggressively against spin else they will find it hard to get to 275 with their weird approach of nt score and not able save wkt at the same time

No matter what the attack.

Yes Pakistan proved it right
