PS3: ICC Cricket World Cup (ODI)

[rishabh96]

I am excited for the ODI as I will play my first ODI match online. Out of 25 players, which 11 I should use, that's a big question for me.
@Solomon don't forget to edit the lineup before hand as I didn't check the lineup.

I will try to keep everyone updated. Match will start by 11:15 PM IST.

 

[Solomon]

Thia is not the team I wanted

 

[rishabh96]

India has won the toss and decided to bat first.​

----------

After 5 Overs
India: 38/1

S.Dhawan LBW J.Patel 11 (6)
R.Sharma 14(17)*
V.Kohli 7(9)*

----------

Rohit Sharma gone for 22 facing 27 balls. Brilliant ball by Jeetan Patel. Great use of Review.

India 51/2 (7 Overs)

 

[rishabh96]

New Zealand has only 100 to chase.
Their spinners were amazing. This must be an easy victory for New Zealand.

Sanjay Manjraker: It is not over just yet folks. India coming back strongly with the bowl and New Zealand are 7 for 2 in 2 overs.

----------

New Zealand going strong now. 41 for 2 after 7 overs. They are well on track to take the first win of the series in India. This will be a big victory if they get there and manager Solomon will be thrilled.

----------

Well well, we have another twist in the game. New Zealand are suddenly 50 for 5.

----------

India are on top now. They need just another 3 wickets whilst NZ need 33 to win.

----------

New Zealand have turned it around again, They now only need 9 to win with 3 wickets in hand. 92/7

 

[rishabh96]

3 drop catches.

 

[RIZZYX]

3 drop catches.

Well they say. catches win matches, and in your case that litrally would have been the case, if you had taken the 3 catches you would have won.

And it is all over, NZ will by 3 wickets.

Good stuff guys.

Congo @Solomon. It was your spinners who did the amazing job. It was very tough to defend that total but I have got my weak points and now I know what changes I have to do in my team. These tour matches are crucial I guess. The more you play, the more you learn and maybe if I continue to play tour matches then I can improve my side.

Well played bro. Need to face well against my weakness now (spin).

First people starting shouting that fielders are superhumans and now fielders take no interest in catching especially keeper.
I think those super humans were better ones

@rishabh96 great game!! There are still glitches. So many bowled for both sides not given.. while I was bowling two lbw were given out but the batsman continued to bat.. nail biting finish.

B McCullum - "Daniel Vettori proves why he is regarded as one of the best all rounders. 4 wickets and 31* made the difference between the sides. Happy to win the series and look forward for the T20 games. Indian crowd has been really supportive and thanks for that. Look forward to meet you guys soon."
