Seven!

I assume that if this game is washed out at this point, Australia's best chance will be to tie the 3 match series. Can anyone confirm this?

Yep you're correct.

 

[Craig]

3 overs have come off and it will be 41 overs. Interesting to see how Flintoff will juggle his bowlers. Real test for any captain.

3 overs have come off and it will be 41 overs.

edit: Oh right, 41 overs from now. Gotcha.

 

[PY]

Excuse me PY? What has offended you so much? Or are you just being a wet blanket?

You trying to be funny and look clever when all I asked was that you adhere to the forum rules.

I'm not offended, just doing what I've been asked to do.

 

[Jono]

41 left.

 

[Fiery]

Seven!

?? Yes, it was a good movie Voltman.

 

[Craig]

Perhaps I misunderstood Mark Nicholas, but I'm sure that's what he said. I could be wrong though

EDIT: saw Fuller's post the page before.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Weird that Australia's target is now higher than England's score.

 

[Zinzan]

Yep you're correct.

ty sir

 

[Jono]

It makes sense. There are 44 overs left in the match, but 3 have been removed. So 41 overs left.

Fair play, I apologise for whatever it is that I should be apologising about. Not really sure, was it use of the word "wanker"? If so, I'm sorry PY

By my maths that's 240 to win, then.

Not possible. England had their full 50 overs and there is no way under DL that Australia can be set more than that.

 

[Craig]

I've never understood how it works as such, in terms of calculations, so I will trust Neil. He know's this stuff.

Cricinfo seems to think they need 266.

edit: Cricinfo stuffing up then.

Sky tells me there's 35 overs left... so nine lost. Hmm.

 

[Craig]

Liam Plunkett, you hero!

 

[PY]

Get in there son, Plunkett you freakin' genius.

Sod the maths. I love Liam Plunkett.
