You guys have no idea how nervous I am this morning. What crazily evenly-matched teams. This could go down to the wire. Or AB or BMac could play a blinder and it'll be painfully lopsided. I just want it to start already.

youarenotimmune · 03-23-2015, 07:50 PM

Hahaa yea I can imagine your state right now Axver.

I'm so pumped up for this game. I'm just praying it's not a blowout victory for either team. I want a high-quality, competitive match.

Just wish this were the final though...but whatever, just give us a good game boys!

Axver · 03-23-2015, 08:16 PM

Normally I love a closely fought game, but when it's this all I ask is a lopsided Black Caps victory. They bowl out the Saffers for fifty and then BMac and Guppy get the target off two overs. Something stupid like that.

And wow, rumour is that Matt Henry will play. Those of you who know your rugby might understand me when I say come on boy, pull a Stephen Donald c.2011!

Vlad n U 2 · 03-23-2015, 08:16 PM

Surprised to find it's on FTA here. Nice.

Axver · 03-23-2015, 08:26 PM

I finally got a comment published on Cricinfo!

cobl04 · 03-23-2015, 08:33 PM

I expect you've had many better comments than that.

cobl04 · 03-23-2015, 08:35 PM

Henry in for Milne, Philander in for Abbott, Saffas won the toss and batting first.

Leggo.

Not my finest, but I'm glad it features New Zealand's finest, The Chills.

Here's hoping the toss is the only thing we lose today.

Axver · 03-23-2015, 09:03 PM

Listen to that crowd! This is amazing.

Vlad n U 2 · 03-23-2015, 09:04 PM

Massive cheer for a maiden. This crowd is really up for this.

I don't remember if 9 were supposed to show both semis but I'm glad I don't have to bother with a stream today.

Axver · 03-23-2015, 09:09 PM

Ronchi and Taylor how did you miss that chance!

cobl04 · 03-23-2015, 09:10 PM

fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Vlad n U 2 · 03-23-2015, 09:10 PM

Oh geez Boult's all over him. Unlucky there. Crowd groaning at every replay.

Vlad n U 2 · 03-23-2015, 09:11 PM

These are not good omens.

youarenotimmune · 03-23-2015, 09:12 PM

Second over went for 10 but was even better than the first one which was a maiden.

Axver · 03-23-2015, 09:12 PM

Come on boys take these chances! Uggghhhhh.

Yeah they were always going to show both semis and the final no matter who. It's possible this is the only non-Aussie game they'll show. Ridiculous.

cobl04 · 03-23-2015, 09:13 PM

that's what I'm worried about. Creating chances immediately but not taking them, could cost them very dearly.

youarenotimmune · 03-23-2015, 09:13 PM

NZ are definitely up for this game, but you can see they're a little nervous as well.

Vlad n U 2 · 03-23-2015, 09:16 PM

GOT HIM!

There we fucking go. Amla's gone.

Axver · 03-23-2015, 09:17 PM

TRENT BOULT YESSSS!

I think this makes him equal-highest Kiwi CWC wicket-taker of all time too.
