Valiant effort from Afghanistan. Just a bridge too far in the end.

The so called "minnows" are making the tournament great.

I hope Angelo realizes what Thisara is and just gives him 2-3 overs max, bowl himself instead over him and just hope that this kind of innings comes off more often than not.

Hahahahaha I remember that one. One of the two ODIs in a row where NZ chased 340 wasn't it?
Yeah 3rd game of a series where we whitewashed them. First game we bowled them out for SFA and chased it down with 10 wickets in hand. Next game we chased 300+ comfortably. 3rd game we fell apart chasing 340 after a brilliant Hayden knock on one leg. Then Fulton scored a couple boundaries.

...and McMillan smashed a hundred with a brilliant supporting innings from Baz.

And then Gillespie jammed us to the win.

Good times.

Could make a fine drinking game from viriya's posting.

Drink when he:

- Links to his cricrate site
- Insists Ajantha Mendis should be in the side
- Insists Angelo Mathews doesn't bowl himself enough
- Insists Perera should always be in the XI for these sort of innings
- Judges a player based purely on stats/scorecards

Although that would probably be just drinking whenever viriya posts tho.

wow that was too close, well done to Afghanistan for pushing us so hard, they really played well. so glad we got over the line and nice to see Mahela score a good hundred(which he threw away) and Thisara for getting us over the line- yes it was a bit agricultural but they all look the same in the scorebook and most importantly, pulled us outta the ****..

- Only said that he should be in the squad - not necessarily in the first choice XI.
- You think Perera should always bowl more overs than Angelo?
- Who should be replacing him?
- You think I'd want Thisara in the team if I judged him based purely on numbers? He fails most of the time.
