peasy23 Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Afghanistan end up 244 all out on the final ball against South Africa. Heartbreak for Azmatullah Omarzai who ends up on 97 not out. For long enough it looked like he was going to run out of partners as wickets fell, but it ended up he ran out of balls. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 (edited) Rashid Khan is a joy to watch, SA 139-4. Rashid has 2 for 30 from 7 overs, and a lot of those 30 were fortunate edges. Edited November 10, 2023 by peasy23 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 England batting first, which all but guarantees that Pakistan can't overturn the deficit in the nett run rate against New Zealand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Khaki Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Aye, ok, 74-0 after 10 and the pitch looking like a road, but, well, England and all that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Khaki Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 England suddenly looking like vintage 2019 England, when the game counts for next to nothing. They're not dropping out of the top 8 even if they lose this. Top trolling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Khaki Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 (edited) Think the constant stream of wickets makes that England total feel a bit underwhelming when it isn't really. Interested to see if this match follows the tournament-long pattern of chasing sides rarely getting anywhere close to the big totals. Edit - and just like that, 2 down. Edit Edit - That'll be an aye then. Edited November 11, 2023 by Boo Khaki 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Khaki Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 (edited) Would be an amusing end to the group stage if Netherlands can somehow pull out a win or tie tomorrow, and dump Sri Lanka and Bangladesh out of the ICC Trophy. NR for extra lulz. Edited November 11, 2023 by Boo Khaki 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 A wild guess here, but I'm thinking 412 might be a few too many for the Netherlands to chase down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 In fairness, the first dozen overs or so from the Netherlands was as good as anyone has started a chase against India. India's spinners though have slowed the run rate and taken wickets with the score now 87-3 after 20. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Khaki Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 India the perfect 9 from 9 in the league stage. That'll be them getting pumped on Wednesday then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Stick a fork in it, it's done. 3 wickets in 3 overs pretty much kills it with the Kiwis needing nearly 20 an over and only the tail left Superb effort from Mitchell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
