Only team not to pick up a single point in the tournament.

As Michael Atherton said in the interval, on paper with the players we have we should be doing better than we are (not saying we should win the whole thing though), and that's down to the captain.

I've been critical of buttler's captaincy on here before, but not sure who'll take his place. Brook has been mentioned, is he the right man for the job? The trouble is there's no obvious candidate really.

Today wasn’t just a loss, it was a pummelling!

And they got bummed by Afghanistan in this tournament as well. Afghanistan, FFS! They need to give their heads a wobble and have a word with themselves.

Not sure how much this game matters, but winning is a habit and NZ have a recent habit of beating India

NZ fielders take some cracking catchers, rooting for them.

213 runs to win off of 41 overs with 9 wickets in hand.

I'd rather NZ win, so I guess today, I'm a kiwi. Come on NZ!

New Zealand 169-7, Williamson out, game over.

Just read that the final on Sunday will be in dubai if India win their semi, but if they don't it will be in Pakistan. What a rediculous way to plan a tournament. Absolute bonkers how they bend over for the Indian team.

 

[Walken]

Big wicket but if they get 10 overs of maxwell and carey maybe not a disaster

 

[JimmyJeffers]

Carey is such a good player. Will be key in the Ashes I think. Massively frustrating for teams when a lower order batsman can bat like this.

 

[Walken]

Nice drop ball bag, get this little fatty out

 

[Walken]

Big wicket, Gill has often been the glue for India

 

[Walken]

Good bowling Zampa, not sure you can drop 3 catches and defend 260 though

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

God I hate Indian cricket.

A lot to like about this NZ team, Ravindra seamlessly moving to opener and being backed up by one of the greats and then some really punchy players in the middle order
