The Warm-Ups...

[Athlai]

Shaib has been in great form. Tamim, Ashraful and Rahim haven't been slouches either.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Blah Scotland batting first. You're ****e, let England get a full innings in.

They've been decent. Only Shakib has made a fifty, and an exceptionally scratchy one at that. And their bowling was beyond a joke against Australia. They are the better team, but there's nothing there to be scared of.

I love you Lee but ****ing stop the no balling already.He got brendon though so I'm not too angry.

They scored a whole heap of runs against Australia. Shakib bowled well even in that match.

Brandon McCulloch out first over, bad start!

 

[superkingdave]

Speed camera must be on the blink, was timing Sidebottom at 89.2...now he looked better than he has recenlty but not that fast

 

[King Pietersen]

Can't be too far off, Broads still operating at the same pace he was a few weeks back, maybe Sideys just in good rhythm and actually fit?

 

[Scaly piscine]

Cricinfo being useless on the Aus v NZ game.

NZ are 7-3 according to the BBC, top 3 goneski.

 

[Athlai]

Taylor killing Siddle though.

 

[King Pietersen]

Adil picks up a wicket, got abit of treatment from Hamilton but a wicket all the same.

 

[jondavluc]

22 for 5 for New Zealand according to cricinfo

Taylor killing Siddle though.

Was killing according to cricinfo he is out (I'm say according to cricinfo a lot because I'm not sure if I trust them at the moment).

 

[Athlai]

And Taylor goes and Oram does the predictable.
Should have Franklin out there.

Ryder must be getting close to losing his position.

 

[King Pietersen]

Rashid getting more treatment, should have had a stumping, excellent work from Foster but not given. England need a wicket or two here.

 

[Naumaan]

Last over was good for scotland
17 coming of that over
althought batsman was stumped
umpire couldn't see lol
so batsman hit the bowler for another six & a four after that
now another boundry of collingwood
89/2 from 12.1 overs

 

[Uppercut]

They scored a whole heap of runs against Australia. Shakib bowled well even in that match.

Shakib's ****ing awesome. But him aside, hitting 181/7 while chasing 220 isn't exactly a glorious achievement. Nor was anything i saw today. Bangladesh losing a match and having plenty of apologists insist that "they gave a good account of themselves" is what has happened pretty much every time they've ever played.

In other news, Adil Rashid looks pretty ****e.

 

[Naumaan]

Newzealand playing against Australia?
that match is being televised?
've 4 diff channels, all showing England Vs scotland
by the way scotland doing good
102-2 of 14 overs
i hope they score 150
so i can see pietersen, bopara & shah scoring some quick runs

 

[BoyBrumby]

Sweaties, and Coetzer in particular, putting on good show.

Ooops, jinxed him. Holes out to KP off a Colly off-cutter for 34. Tragic.

My point was that Bangladesh should soundly beat the Irish. Especially after Morgan got poached. Don't think the Irish could score 180 or even come close to it TBH.
