how are the nerves for tomorrow bhav ?

must win game against the old enemy
Weirdly enough I don't really care much.
for this tournament been looking at it from a neutral perceptive no idea if this is because I am having a few bets for each game so need to keep emotion out of it.

Although saying that might be feeling nervous tomorrow.

always best to separate the heart from the head when gambling

The pitch is so baffling, looks a good batting deck in the first 5-6 overs and then bang batting gets so difficult.

The altitude not even helping the batters getting more sixes or boundaries in the middle/death overs.

i really cant understand the marked difference between the first 6 and thereafter

the ball cant be getting soft that quick

i know there are differences in fielding restrictions but that doesn't affect strokeplay like we have seen here

agree
good game for people doing in game bets though since the bookies got the pitch hopelessly wrong.
they had 173 the par total.
It was obvious it was wrong when NZ were batting.

just looking at the aussie top order , is there an argument that smith should make way for finch ?

smith's record in t20 isn't great and finch surely needs to play

market is putting 180 as par and 175 as the even money point for the game.

It depends
Steyn is hit and miss in T20
Rabada got hit massively by some below average indian players in the warm up games.
Tahir is a gun bowler though.
England are out of it if they chasing 195+.
Be jokes if the par total is 160 and bookies get it wrong again after Nagpur and Dharamsala.
