Couple of dropped catches in the outfield may cost the Bangers

10 wicket hammering by Pakistan, that would have felt very very good for them as a nation and as a cricket team

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Pakistan have absolutely crushed team India.

India 7/151
Pakistan 0/152 in 17 overs.

Team India

Cricinfo will be delicious today

If Pakistan keep their heads in the game and avoid all that match-fixing crap they have a reputation for, they could easily win the world cup. That was a thorough smashing last night, India barely even got a chance to get a wicket, it's not like they didn't take their chances, they didn't get any.

Shaheen is as good a bowler as any, they've got some real experience too in that team with Malik and Hafeez. Plenty to be excited about if you're a Pakistan cricket fan (which none of us here probably are) but still.

On par with the Eels smacking the Storm this year. Was truly wonderful.

Doesnt mean to much, other than chest beating for now and promises of bigger things later

India are more than likely to go on a winning spree. Pakistan? who knows. Hopefully they can give the cup a huge shake. Someone in the commentary said this game was like a final to them, which in reality may not be a good thing moving forward for them. Time will tell

1am tonight Group 2 - Afghanistan v Scotland

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Afghanistan 4/190.
Scotland crumbling like a haggis in the Glasgow sun (I've never been to Scotland but I imagine it's bloody hot). 5/36.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Afghanistan crush Scotland like they were women's rights.
All out for 60.
Mujeeb takes 5/20.

 

[TheParraboy]

I’m calling it

Scotland won’t make the semi finals

 

[TheParraboy]

Couple of good games tonight/early morning

9pm SA v WI - Be tough going for the loser to qualify for the semi finals id imagine

1am - The Enigmas v The Nice guys (PAK v NZ)

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Windies sent in, 3/94 in the 15th over

Ferguson out of the tournament, big loss for us.

Pakistan beat us, we weren’t great

the de Kock/RSA situation is intriguing to say the least…

 

[AlwaysGreen]

WI 8/143 lost by 8 wickets to SA 2/144.

NZ 8/134 lost by 5 wickets to PAK 5/135.

 

[Mr Spock!]

So de Kock is choosing to not participate in antiracism.

Seems a strange hill to die on and lose your career over.

 

[TheParraboy]

LOL Who is this Armstrong tosser who thinks De Kock is a big racist, fmd


Looks like the previous SA board told the players they can express themselves any way they like, but this board are demanding they all bend the knee, right before game 2 of the WC
