All we ask for as fans is to respect the other team's principles, their nationhood, the celebration of their nation as well.

And, you know, I like that someone who has organised the anthems for this game has thought, you know, celebrating anthems are great and the New Zealand National Anthem is one of the best anthems in the world, no question about it.

That's just an opinion, that's a fact.

But you know what's better?

House music.

You know, that's what's better.

Let's get these games moving again.

No one's got time to listen to, you know, Land of the White Cloud.

No one's got time for Kia Ora stuff right now.

Let's get to the Sixers, okay?

Let's move this game forward.

Good.

Well, thank you very much to Budweiser for getting behind TGC and indeed the Cricket World Cup.

Actually, that's the 50-odd World Cup, isn't it?

This is the ICC T20 World Cup.

But Budweiser are putting this show in the hands of fans and let's see what the punters have been saying about this game.

An important game because Pakistan are still in the tournament.

New Zealand's now out of control of their own destiny.

Mitchie kicks us off here.

He says, 4D chess from New Zealand to avoid India in the semis.
