New Zealand v West Indies

Post by ClaretTony » Sat Jun 22, 2019 9:43 pm

Brilliant finish to that game. West Indies came from nowhere to get within 5 runs. Brathwaite, brilliant ton and then caught right on boundary edge when a 6 would have won it.

Very exciting game and such a pity for Brathwaite that his last shot was to one of the best NZ fielders. So close and great to watch as was the India v Afghanistan game earlier.

Two brilliant games today and although I've been out watching local cricket I still saw quite a bit of each including most of the Windies innings. Absolutely gripping stuff and I think every neutral must have been totally heartbroken for Brathwaite who played so fantastically and fell inches short at the final hurdle! It was proper edge of the seat stuff!!

Just got back from OT. What a game, had a bit of everything and was gutted for Brathwaite at the end, was a great knock in the circumstances. At 18 quid a ticket was certainly value for money!

Must have been brilliant to be there - we are finally getting some really good games in this World Cup
