Watch us f**k it up against Bangladesh/Pakistan now.

f**k that's cynical. T20 is to some degree a lottery, but we are a very solid limited overs team, don't see us beating ourselves, but without Baz we lack a match winner to a degree in this format

Unfortunately India beat Pakistan (mens) easily in the end by 6 wickets

Aust v Bangers tomorrow, wouldn't surprise me in the slightest we lose this one

Bangladesh have had 2 bowlers banned and Mustafizur is injured. Anything over 160 the Bangas struggle to chase down.

Pakistan misread potch against India that had big turn from the second over of the match.

Pakistan had India by the balls at 3/23 in the 5th over due to brilliant pace bowling

Not sure why Amir didn't bowl his 3rd over and possibly 4 overs straight up from the outset chasing such a small total. He was brought back for his 3rd over when the game was well gone

In any case expecting NZ and India to make the semis from this group

SA 1/49 5 overs

Hopefully a mini collapse at some point and no more than 160 for the innings

The thing that counts against associate nations is they almost never play sides of this quality. Afghanistan are a great example, ranked 9th in T20 cricket, way too good for the other associates, a really quality pace attack but SA are carving them up (for now) because they are playing like a minnow basher against a world class side

You'd be the only person to call Sami brilliant, but yes he got two insude edges to chop onto the stumps. Pakis needed soin after the powerplay, but all they had was Afridi and part time Malik. Imad Wasim was sorely missed as said by Afridi himself post match when asked that it looked like they needed more spinners on a pitch turning square.
