[Mr Angry]

Carn the Afganis!!!!

 

[Mr Angry]

I do not dislike Sri Lanka, just love an upset.

 

[Mr Angry]

Geez I hope some of the Afghanis get some IPL riches to take home.

Same. I much prefer Sri Lanka than the Indian side. I've always had a lot of respect for the Tamil Tigers since when they won the World Cup in the mid 90s. Had some fantastic players from that era: De Silva, Jayasuriya, Vaas etc.

 

[Mr Angry]

Note to Brisbane Heat.

There is an Afghani who breaks bats.

Give him a contract.

 

[Mr Angry]

Gee they cranky at each other.......

To spend time with professional players and coaches.....so much good.

 

[undertaker]

The Afghans would really be on top here if they had taken those run out chances earlier on

 

[Wizardman]

One wicket away....the match is drifting away from the Afghans

 

[undertaker]

Was impressed with the leg spin bowler. Showed a lot of control and good line

Yeah, need a wicket badly before the batting powerplay, otherwise these two batsmen will just get Sri Lanka over the line with their experience

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

England will be nervous, both Scotland and Afghanistan have shown heart and some ability.

England are yet to display either this WC.

 

[Wizardman]

They need both out now...one of them would be able to get them home.

 

[Hutty1986]

Lankans to cruise home from here unfortunately.

I admit that I thought Afghanistan got it wrong when they did not put their strike bowlers on to finish the job. This is getting interesting now.

 

[JW]

44 off 34 now. Lankans should still get up but pressure building.

 

[TheParraboy]

What a shame Afghanistan will lose this one

26 to get from 24 balls

4 wickets in tact

 

[Mr Angry]

Carn Afghanis!

You can do it...

 

[Mr Angry]

Damn the Sri Lankan experience...

 

[Mr Angry]

Afghanistan is officially my second team....

Love them...

 

[Wizardman]

Well done Afghanistan.....the kept their key bowlers off for a bit too long but great effort.
