Top 4 teams group will be qualified for Semi-finals.

34th Match, 4th Super: India v South Africa at Mumbai
Pitch: Uneven

35th Match, 5th Super: New Zealand v England at Dharmasala
Pitch: Green

36th Match, 6th Super: West Indies v Australia at Nagpur
Pitch: Sticky

Hard - A hard pitch with a lot of bounce on offer, and will suit batsmen who play on the back foot well. The ball is bound to reverse swing in the end.
Uneven - Great pitch for teams batting first, and bowlers who can bowl reverse swingers later in the innings. Ideal to produce matches like this.
Sticky - Offers no swing, spin or seam whatsoever. The worst pitch to play cricket on.
Flat - It's simply a road.
Slow - Slow pitch, the ball comes on to the bat late. But runs can be scored quite easily off the bowlers once set.
Dusty - Great pitch for spinners and all sorts of batsmen.
Green - A heaven for fast bowlers and players who play on the back foot well.

Just take a look at post above.

Aravind. · Feb 19, 2016

The bowling combo of Tim Southee, Trent Boult & Mitchell McClenaghan not working as a unit, if one of em performs well other two ends up being giving loads of runs. I agree we are playing in India, but these three world class bowlers leaking lot of runs is a worry for our side. The next match is on a green track, hope the fab 3 will give their best there. Line up coming in few minutes.

Kane Williamson (Will not bowl)
Brendon McCullum

Colin Munro
Ross Taylor
Corey Anderson

Grant Elliott

Luke Ronchi

Tim Southee

Trent Boult

Mitchell McClenaghan

As our batting unit performed really well in the tournament before the last match, we are not making any major change in the batting order, but the form of Kane & Corey in this league is a major issue for our side.

Saroj padhy · Feb 19, 2016

Kane?

Kane is dropped due to his poor form & to make way for 6 proper fast bowlers.

FIRST INNINGS:

Code:

0.1  Dale Steyn to Rohit Sharma, Swing and a miss. No run.  (0)
0.2  Dale Steyn to Rohit Sharma, Ah, he's beaten by the movement! It moved in the air, and deviated away off the pitch, taking the offstump with it! No chance for the batsman there, he just walks away bemused.

Rohit Sharma                          b Dale Steyn
Runs : 0       Balls : 2         S/R : 0

  (0)
0.3  Dale Steyn to Virat Kohli, Tucked away to the leg side, they're running hard, but only manage a single.Edged and through the vacant third slip region. Just after the skipper had removed a man from that region. Don't you just hate that? One run.  (1)
0.4  Dale Steyn to Robin Uthappa, Delicate little late cut, well placed. Quick single taken.  (1)
0.5  Dale Steyn to Virat Kohli, Inside edge, and past the stumps. The batsmen take a quick single  (1)

SECOND INNINGS:

South Africa needed 168 runs from 20.0 to win

Code:

0.1  Varun Aaron to Hashim Amla, , No Ball. Good short ball, the batsman is caught off guard and top edges it high in the air! The keeper is after it...he's runs hard...and the ball lands just after him! He drops a glove and hurls the ball in to keep the batsman to just a single.  (1)
0.1  Varun Aaron to Quinton de Kock, Thick inside edge there, but the umpire still gives it! Unbelievable! Zorax probably has a bet riding on this game, cause there is no way that was out!

Runs : 0       Balls : 1         S/R : 0

  (0)
0.2  Varun Aaron to Farhaan Behardien, Down the track and driven through midwicket. There is no fielder in the deep so Long On has to run around to field it, and so in the meanwhile the batsmen get three. Poor bowling but good placement.  (3)
0.3  Varun Aaron to Hashim Amla, Swing and a miss. No run.  (0)
0.4  Varun Aaron to Hashim Amla, Splendid shot for four!  (4)
0.5  Varun Aaron to Hashim Amla, What an audacious shot! Uppercut up and over third man for six! Incredible!  (6)
0.6  Varun Aaron to Hashim Amla, Good short ball, the batsman is caught off guard and top edges it high in the air! The keeper is after it...he's runs hard...and the ball lands just after him! He drops a glove and hurls the ball in to keep the batsman to just a single.  (1)

1.1  Jasprit Bumrah to Hashim Amla, Reverse sweep! Cheeky. Only one run though.  (1)
1.2  Jasprit Bumrah to Farhaan Behardien, The run the first hard, they come for two, the fielder has the ball, they call for the third...will they get there!?! The throw is in, it's wide, the batsman makes the dive...and he's in! Excellent running, and poor fielding. 3 more!  (3)
1.3  Jasprit Bumrah to Hashim Amla, Goes for a straight drive, but inside edges it into his legs and it richochets onto the stumps! The batsman is not happy!

2.5  Varun Aaron to Farhaan Behardien, Slapped away through the offside for a glorious boundary! Lovely shot. The captain's fuming now and removes a man from third slip to cover that region.  (4)

5.5  Jasprit Bumrah to Farhaan Behardien, Full delivery outside off-stump, the batsman clears his left leg and swings, and top edges it high into the air. It's an easy catch in the end, and hopefully the batsman has learnt why you shouldn't slog across the line!

1.1  Mitchell McClenaghan to Luke Wright, Full, wide, the batsman flails at it and finds the edge! But the ball flies between the keeper and slip, who just stare at each other as the ball runs away for four! Unlucky!  (4)
1.2  Mitchell McClenaghan to Luke Wright, What an audacious shot! Uppercut up and over third man for six! Incredible!  (6)
1.3  Mitchell McClenaghan to Luke Wright, Slapped away through the offside for a glorious boundary! Lovely shot. The captain's fuming now and removes a man from third slip to cover that region.  (4)
1.4  Mitchell McClenaghan to Luke Wright, Gosh, how unlucky can you be. He's absolutely nailed that, but straight to the fielder. No run.  (0)
1.5  Mitchell McClenaghan to Luke Wright, Splendid shot for four!  (4)

2.3  Trent Boult to Alex Hales, Short and pulled away for a single  (1)
2.4  Trent Boult to Luke Wright, That's gone high in the air, and an easy catch in the end.

18.2  Mitchell McClenaghan to Liam Plunkett, That's skied, but he's dropped it! Two more runs.  (2)
18.3  Mitchell McClenaghan to Liam Plunkett, And the batsman unveils the sweep shot, and it's done beautifully too! Four more!  (4)
18.4  Mitchell McClenaghan to Liam Plunkett, Good shot, bad placement. Won't get a run for that.  (0)
18.5  Mitchell McClenaghan to Liam Plunkett, The run the first hard, they come for two, the fielder has the ball, they call for the third...will they get there!?! The throw is in, it's wide, the batsman makes the dive...and he's in! Excellent running, and poor fielding. 3 more!  (3)
18.6  Mitchell McClenaghan to Chris Woakes, Good shot, bad placement. Won't get a run for that.  (0)

19.1  Trent Boult to Liam Plunkett, The batsman has a wild slog, and gets enough to send the ball to the fence for four! Not the best looking shot, but it certainly was effective.  (4)
