Non Australia Internationals thread (During ASHES series)

[TheParraboy]

Not a bad idea requested by my friend xfactor1979, so here it is. Any internationals not involving Australia we can post our thoughts and relevant articles here

The West Indies salvaged a tie last night in an ODI in the West Indies. The 4th ODI on tomorrow night

Currently 1ST ODI Sri Lanka are 1/81 - 16 overs vs South Africa

"News in other countries other than Australia"

^ "Mad as Hell" style!

This thread should be active only for this Ashes series

 

[Xfactor1979]

Theres also another ODI series between India and Zimbabwe

Sangakkara went to down last night belting 169 after a steady start.
Almost all of those were just good quality strokes, what a class player.

Sri Lanka is going to fall apart with the loss of him, Jayawardene, Dilshan and Malinga soon.

Sangakkara is showing no signs of aging at all.

 

[Xfactor1979]

Its a funny thing because Sri Lanka has a team capable of troubling the South Africans (even in South Africa) they beat South Africa in a test match at home

However Sri Lanka gets paddywhacked by pretty much everyone else

India rig their draws to land plenty of Sri Lanka games, whom they seem to beat most of the time. Weird how there isn't a consistent world draw.

^ Consistent draw?

Looks at draw for the NRL...

Some teams havent played certain teams yet, and its round 19! :crazy:

Meanwhile South Africa continue to show us what a poor limited overs outfit they are now, thumped by Sri Lanka 4-1 last night.

cant help but be suspicious when Pakis lose to a minnow

 

[Timbo]

They had the scorecard of the last time Zimbabwe beat Pakistan in an ODI on Cricinfo. It was 15 years ago, but man it was a good side. Shame they'll likely never get back to that standard.

Especially when there are good Zimbabwean cricketers out there playing in England.

 

[Timbo]

They're even losing the mediocre ones now. Kyle Jarvis giving it away leaves a massive hole in their attack.

Vitori and Chatara are still too raw. But I do like the looks of Vitori.

While Australia play a one off ODI against Scotland England will be playing a one off ODI against Ireland in Dublin

1ST ODI Bangers v NZ at Dhaka

NZ won toss and sent Bangers into Bat

Will it be 4-0 like last time around to Bangladesh? I say no cause there are only 3 ODIs played this time around.

Game kickoff 6.30pm AEDT

 

[AlwaysGreen]

My tip: McCallum to go large on a road in one game when the pressure is off.

 

[Helmet Man]

woops didn't notice this thread. Sorry guys i accidently made a match thread

 

[Helmet Man]

Ill just ctrl C, ctrl V what i wrote in the other thread.

Bangladesh 33/3.

A bad situation they are in but they do always find themselves in this position and work their way out of it.

So im not worried even in the slightest.

Its funny how being a worser team then the rest of the cricketing nations. Being crap for years may actually be helpful as they will realise the skills needed to get out of a bad situation.

We will wait and see how the match progresses.

No Shakib today btw.
