He also may have saved 10 to 15 runs with that run out and catch near the end.

Jadeja is the only hope for India now, Played a really inning so far.

 

[Master Khan]

India is not far off now, just 44 runs of 26 balls

If only Dhoni could hit a few now. Jadeja’s been doing all the heavy work for a while.

 

[hammadahmed88]

India's game to lose from here I think.

You can’t be serious can you?

Edit - and Jadeja gets out.

 

[Master Khan]

Jadeja is gone, fantastic innings by him, It's all on Dhoni now but with the run rate at almost 15 now it's going to really hard now

What a way to end a legends last WC performance. Well played champ no matter what people say. You steadied the ship as was required. Proud of your achievements,

Yeah, I think the emotions got to me and I jumped the gun there. I think it was more evenly poised then. You have got to stand up and tip your cap for Jadeja.

That was an amazing runout![DOUBLEPOST=1562766753][/DOUBLEPOST]And this here is the risk of taking it too deep, sometimes you leave too much on the plate to finish off.

Fantastic innings by Jadeja, should have been India’s number 7 years ago.

 

[hammadahmed88]

What a magnificent game. A bit of everything. Would have been nice to see Dhoni finish it off in his last tournament. Still an extraordinary career to say the least.

Thanks for all the memories, MSD! Been a die hard fan, forever #7! Now all the blame will be on you as you were slow. But when the team is 90/5, then the top and middle order is to be blamed. See how Pant and Pandya threw their wickets away?

 

[Velocity]

That was one hell of an innings from Jadeja. He never gave up and that was the spirit that took India so close to a win. Absolute brilliance and I hope he has shut up Manjrekar.

New Zealand have been the subject of criticism for the way they got here but honestly, can you see Pakistan fielding the way they did in the death overs? Plenty of boundary opportunities that most other teams would have conceded under pressure were stopped clinically, a lot of doubles were prevented thanks to quick ground fielding and throws which is no mean feat when you’ve got MS and Jadeja running between the wickets. And finally, THAT runout.

New Zealand for me completely deserve to be here for their clinical performance when it mattered which is what counts in this semi-league format. Now if you would criticise the format of the tournament, I’m all ears for it...
