WC 7th Match: Afghanistan v Sri Lanka - Cardiff 4/6/19 (SL won by 34 runs D/L)

[jargan83]

41 overs each when they resume

 

[AlwaysGreen]

So nine more overs for the Lankans to try and get about 50 runs and set something defendable

 

[AlwaysGreen]

201 all out. A tricky little chase, as per The Admiral's theorem of chases these ones are harder than the big ones.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Afghanistan with the wobbles, 3/45

 

[TheParraboy]

SL lions win by 34 runs

That explosive start with the bat (and shit bowling) won them the game

Afghans batting is not up to scratch and was always the worry. They won’t win a game this tournament unless a pakistan or WI bring their z- game which they can do

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Yep, that was Afghanistan's biggest chance for a win.

Horrific start and then kinda fart arsed around with the bat against tight but not really scary bowling.

Parra Lanka with a morale booster

 

[hineyrulz]

That would be a helluva miracle .

Horse Blankets for all!

I thought it was an Ash Taylor performance.

 

[Sphagnum]

I thought it was an Ash Taylor performance.

More like their Hansie performance

 

[Front-Rower]

I thought it was an Ash Taylor performance.

More like a Wests Tigers performance. Moments of brilliance but no consistency and a total let down.

You just knew Afghanistan would Tom Melbourne that game and lose
