Semi Finals/Final - Australia, Sri Lanka, England and Pakistan

[Jono]

If Jayasuriya kept batting like he has heading into the election I'd probably vote against him tbh

 

[NasserFan207]

Lumb/Keiswetter has to be the flukiest opening partnership I've ever seen.

 

[BoyBrumby]

It's bizarre. Not used to us winning comfortably at anything.

SL been pretty bloody ropey tho, tbf.

 

[superkingdave]

Not sure where Collie's at atm, that was brainless.

 

[Jarquis]

Hmm... if Lumb can get us off to another decent start (against a decent spinning attack HAHA I know) then the rate could be under a run a ball pretty early on. In which case you'd have to back KP, Morgan and Wright especially with the batting depth of Bres, Yardy and Swann. Not mentioning Colly, he's got to make a score sooner or later though; hasn't he?

Saving it for the final obv.

 

[superkingdave]

Not a bad way to finish it off.

 

[BoyBrumby]

All a little meh, tbh. Not much of a contest.

Obviously pleased, but couldn't call it a cracker of a semi, could you?

 

[wpdavid]

That'll do nicely

Jet-lag doesn't seem to have done KP too much damage.

 

[Jarquis]

Buzzing for the final.

Classic case of a test between a cricket fan vs. "insert team" fan, and which comes first.

 

[NasserFan207]

KP still struggling for form

Ha, yeah. Not a problem I'm usually faced with either. If we win it's usually by the skin of our ****s.

Can console myself by fretting about the lack of actual poms in the side at least tho.

MotM an interesting call? Sid?

Probably Kieswetter

 

[JBH001]

Great work England, well played. A comprehensive win, and I will be going for you come Sunday.

 

[Kensashi]

Swann has a decent shot at MoM.

 

[grecian]

Broad for me.

 

[NasserFan207]

I'll support England against Australia (can't get over the douche image of the new brigade), not against Pakistan though.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Broad then. Stick a pin in it time tho, really.

Not really favouring either side, I just watched a dull game indeed. However, I'm pleased to see England go through, since they have shown some very decent T20 cricket this tournament. I'm looking forward to a cracking final between Aus & Eng.

About the Aussie and England teams: both their sides seem very very balanced. We've seen the Aussie #6 and #7 rescueing the game vs Sri Lanka. And England can bat upto 11.....

1/24? That one being Jayasuriya? Don't see him getting it.
Broad was more economical and took out Jayawardene and then broke the Matthews/Kapugedera partnership.
