The only positive to this ruined game, is that it will be winding up millions of whinging Indian cricket fans

Forecast for Birmingham is rain all Thursday. Suspect I'll be laughing on the other side of my face then.
Even worse, after the pitches had started to feel a bit less toss-focussed (or maybe it's just been worse teams batting), I imagine Birmingham will be right back to the tackyness we've seen at OT.

Plenty of time for things to go belly-up, but if NZ beat India to the final because of the stupid toss thing I will laugh and laugh. Gentle chuckles thus far.

Go on MS, 50 off 120. It’s what the crowd wants.

Yeeeaaaaassssss!!!! Come on!!! 6 down, and India in all kinds of trouble!! Santner on 2/5 of 5 overs is bonkers, wonder if we'll see Williamson bowling himself for a couple?

Somewhat coincidentally too.....India needed 148 off their last 20 overs, which is what DL would have been......only they're 6 down so ouch

Bloody hell....that was nerve wracking! Win the toss and bat tomorrow please Eoin, chasing is a right bugger on these pitches. Incredible consistency from NZ in making semis and finals at the world cup, i genuinely don't think i'd be that upset if we lost to them on Sunday if we got past Aus of course!

How Jadeja didn't get MOTM I'll never know. Bowled beautifully, kept them in it with the bat whilst Dhoni was messing about.

Fantastic bowling performance from New Zealand to qualify for the final, now up to England to follow suit.
