CHAMPIONS TROPHY 2025

With this rain about, if a semi final gets washed out, id imagine you would want to be ranked no1 in your group to be the one to qualify to the final

Or play all your games in Dubai.....

Dear Kaif. It doesn't matter if you cover the whole city, if it's raining you can't play mate.

I think what Kaif is getting at is that Rawalpindi Stadium should be upgraded with a roof and 60,000 seat capacity if it wants to hold important sporting events like Champions Trophy Group matches or NRL Magic Round. He would fit right in at the LU NRL forum.

There is a bit of Kaif in all of us.

Afghanistan win the toss and bat.

Buttler still whinging about the dew the other night.

Wood still has some serious heat

21/2 in the 7th. Archer with both, he and Wood too much for them atm, good aggressive genuinely quick bowling

 

[Bazal]

Oh look Wood is broken again

Hope it’s not too bad…. But it’s part of bowling that quick I guess , he’s terrific to watch imo

What I liked about Brett Lee was that he was very durable.
Balsa Wood falls apart every 2nd game.

Yep, given how quick he was Lee was exceptional, so many of them break or can’t handle tests

This is like Strikers v Heat when they looked the same

How hard is it to have a bit of a different kit?

It's almost the same shade of blue.

Hasmat out, what a shame

4/140 in the 30th over

Some Einstein in the comm box , couple of overs ago said they wont get to 350

 

[Fangs]

Kuhnemann cleared FYI.

 

[TheParraboy]

Well done Zadran 100 of 106

 

[TheParraboy]

I like this Azmatullah

Like Maxwell, but with brains..

Kuhnemann cleared FYI.

Another Joel Wilson decision overturned.

It’s as shame we lost the King 3 years ago, he could kindly explain to him that this phenomenon of water falling from the sky is rain and it happens everywhere in the world, but especially England.

Ben Duckett's record Champions Trophy high score lasted less than a week.

Ibraham Zadran 167* and counting. Also Afghanistan's highest ODI score.

AFG were 3/103 after 25 overs

Fantastic comeback
