Destiny is perhaps playing a cruel game with Jimmy Neesham and New Zealand. The allrounder has made it clear that he hates super over and understandably so. He posted a hilarious tweet expressing his feelings after the second game in a row between India and New Zealand went to a super over.
This was the fourth game for New Zealand since July that was decided by a super over. The first was in the World Cup final when he nearly took his side to win in the classic final. New Zealand had lost the game on boundary count. The second one took place in November with England being the opposition once again. It was the fifth and final T20I and New Zealand went on to lose the game as well as the series.
Jimmy Neesham was in the thick of things once again as he failed to defend 16 runs in the final over that saw the game being decided by a super over. The super over then came back to haunt New Zealand on Wednesday in the do-or-die third T20I against India as they lost the close game and also conceded the series.

And as if that was not enough, New Zealand faced yet another super over on Friday and they only had themselves to blame for. Chasing 166, they needed only seven runs with well set Tim Seifert and Ross Taylor batting. But somehow, New Zealand failed to score the runs.
They lost four wickets in the over and failed to score 2 runs off the final ball. And as soon as New Zealand ended their innings, Jimmy Neesham took to Twitter to make his feelings clear. The star allrounder posted a hilarious GIF of the famous tv show The office to express his feelings.

And as if the super over was not enough, Kings XI Punjab rubbed salt to Neesham’s wounds by taunting him with a GIF tweet of their own.
