Group 1: New Zealand v West Indies at Pallekele, Oct 1, 2012

Re: Group 1: New Zealand v West Indies at Pallekele, Oct 1, 2012

Aren’t we being too harsh on Hafeez?

  • Indian batting is much stronger than NZ’s
  • Pakistan has mental or psychological issues against India and Australia but not against other teams, so we might have also defended this small total against NZ.
  • 130+/- totals are just not good enough - you are likely to lose 80% of the time, Windies did very well to tie this game but with 3 overs to go, NZ really should have won it easily
