2024 T20 World Cup (Hosts USA and West Indies)

[King-Gutho94]

Victory by 39 runs to Australia. Hard a polished performance but a start.

Next up:
USA v Pakistan
Scotland v Namibia

Just keeping our powder dry to flex our muscles against the minnows of the group in England on Sunday Morning.

Is it just me or is it weird that New Zealand, Bangladesh and Pakistan haven't played yet there are teams who have already played 2 games.

T20 World Cup: India voice New York pitch concerns but ICC stands firm

The International Cricket Council has no plans to move T20 World Cup matches out of New York despite concerns over poor pitches.

Haydos with the insight

"In Australia right now it's very cold. Here, it's very hot."

You can’t buy this kind of insight

Super over Pakistan v USA!!!!

 

[Wizardman]

Geez....this is the type of "loss" Pakistan have every single major tournament.

 

[King-Gutho94]

There will be an investigation into that game surely with the bookies.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Not sure about that. USA have improved immensely and Pakistan are on the slide. The US were on top almost the whole game, Pakistan almost pulled off the win with tight bowling in the last 5 overs.

Aaron Jones is having a helluva world cup.

Sets up India v Pakistan beautifully. If Pakistan beat them then team India could find themselves fighting to stay in the comp!

 

[AlwaysGreen]

You do question things when its Mohammed Amir bowling the super over and giving up 3 wides.

Next up:

Not sus at all.

I reckon we might see one or two more upsets to come, its T20

If it wasn't for Stoinis, and one over in particular where he belted 4x6s, let alone couple of dropped catches, Oman would have been right in it to beat us

Good to see no concrete roads

Good to see no concrete roads

The BCCI need to recoup their investment in asphalt somehow

Classic Pakistan.

Were they shit or was it match fixing? Unfortunately these questions will likely dog Pakistan until the end of time.

 

[hineyrulz]

Horse blankets for Pakistan!!

 

[ElectricEelMan]

Don't forget people, USA beat Bangladesh in a series. Not a one off game. A series.

They might be a little bit better than you are giving them credit.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Another upset, this time Canada beat Ireland.

I just hope cricket continues to develop and in 10-15 years time we have more competitive countries that are capable of competing with the big boys not only in a T20 WC but a ODI WC.

Unfortunately I think franchise cricket is going to take over even more in the next decade and that whatever traction we do get at international level will be lost amongst the rich $$$ of domestic competitions.
