peasy23 Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) Bangladesh are the first side officially eliminated after Pakistan bowled them out for 204 then raced to a 7 wicket win in 32.3 overs.

Hopefully we can stay ahead of England and qualify at their expense. Good stuff from the ICC. Use the World Cup as a qualifier for an even narrower event, just in case any diddies qualify for the WC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 South Africa gave New Zealand a tanking today, setting the Kiwis a hefty 358 to win they didn't even make halfway, all out for 167 in the 36th over. The Saffers have been very impressive so far apart from the one loss to the Netherlands. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Glenn Maxwell adding to the list of bizarre sporting injuries, he'll miss Saturday's match against England after falling off a golf buggy on Monday and suffering concussion. Mitchell Marsh will also miss the game as he has gone home for personal reasons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 India impressive with the bat again, but Sri Lanka absolutely capitulated in reply with 5 ducks on the card, 3 of them first ball. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Khaki Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 Hope England call pull out a win somehow versus the Crims, not for any purpose of restoring pride or anything, more that it would give Afghanistan a genuine shout of making the Semis if they could somehow upset Australia on Tuesday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

England doing a decent job to restrict the Aussies to 286 all out, but continue to be awful chasing with Bairstow out to the first ball of the innings, which would almost certainly have been a wide had he left it alone. It was 19-2 in the 5th over with Root continuing to look hopelessly out of nick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Pakistan beat NZ on DLS after rain stopped play twice. The Kiwis scored 401-6, Pakistan were 201-2 from 25.3 when play was stopped for a second and final time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Malan and Stokes had done a decent job rebuilding England's reply, but 2 balls after reaching 50 Malan goes to leave England on 103-3. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btb Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 (edited) It's over. And that's not simply the worst World Cup defence in the history of international sport. Everything that, for eight heady years, had been taken for granted about England's white-ball batting has vanished without trace, as if some Hollywood baddy had pinched a sports almanack from the future and set the dials on the team's Delorean for the 2015 World Cup. We've re-entered an epoch of endless, desperate failure - the miracle of 2019 lost forever to some branch-line of the space-time continuum.

peasy23 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 (edited) South Africa flung in the relatively inexperienced Marco Jansen against the hosts, India have responded by smacking him all over Eden Gardens. He's gone for 57-0 from his first 5 overs. India were 91-1 after 10, the Saffers have reined them in a bit with Maharaj and Rabada stemming the runs, but India are still looking very well set at 196-2 from 32 overs, Kohli on 56 an Shreyas on 60.

peasy23 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 (edited) Kohli gets his 49th ODI hundred, equalling Tendulkar's record, he managed it in 277 innings compared to Sachin's 452. Edited November 5, 2023 by peasy23 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 As much as there has been some excellent cricket played, it's been a snoozefest of a tournament with so many games with huge margins of victory. This is another one with South Africa 79-8 trying to chase 327. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 Fwiw I thought watching it live it looked like he was ready to go then his helmet strap broke.

I agree, an absolute nonsense appeal and nonsense decision. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
