PB1994 Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Doesn’t come in until the Super Sixes. Not sure if it has something to do with some of the grounds used for the first stage? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 The cynic in me thinks it has something to do with helping Sri Lanka qualify rather than an Associate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Bit disappointing this, I had expected us to at least give them a game after their score. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Test Match error from England - I expect Australia to push for 500+ before they even think of declaring. ************ On a funnier note when will they ever learn, England Leg-end Ian Bell attempt at trash-talking (an essential part of Bazball) looks a bit less convincing now than it did at 10:30am. England have psychological grip on Australia says Ian Bell 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still potentially 16.4 overs to go, will England risk more MTC points in order to avoid a massive score against them - what's the situation on floodlights? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FifeArab Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 339-5 at stumps on day 1. Steve smith 85 not out. Very good day for Australia. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuctifano Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Super 6 starts today, think we're toast but the most plausible (or least implausible) path to qualification is : Beat Zimbabwe, heavily, to make up NRR difference (tie breaker is NRR not head to head), beat Netherlands and hope Sri Lanka beat everyone they still have to play. Would leave us and Zimbabwe on 6 points with the others unable to get more than 4 so would come down to NRR between us and Zimbabwe. Can't see us beating them at home the way they're playing. In fact I'd expect them to rack up a large win vs Oman today to almost put the NRR out of reach barring something silly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
