Sorry, big few days. Keep going unchanged

Oh man, this is so awesome. Seriously bro, you should be a professional statistician! How long did it take you to do brother?

It's a hobby of mine. Not an excel-nerd by any stretch of the imagination. Just love the numbers and the graphical representation of them. With regards to time, it's approximately 5 minutes per scorecard.

Round 6

New Zealand vs Pakistan - Kennington Oval, London

Pakistan

New Zealand

Pakistan won by 70 runs

MOTM: Wasim Akram

Points: PAK 2 NZ 0

Ahh, finally yo! Ramiz in a destructive mood. Abdul Razzaq should open a duck farm. Wasim among the wickets, nice. Shoaib Akthar with a tight spell. Aaqib Javed contributing. Loving it. Team effort.

Same XI

Round 6

England vs Sri Lanka - Lord's, London

England

Sri Lanka

England won by 1 run

MOTM: Upul Chandana

Points: ENG 2 SL 0

 

[jimmy101]

What a match. So close, yet so far for Sri Lanka. Craig White takes a wicket & concedes only seven runs in the final over. SL may very well be packing their bags here.

South Africa

India

MOTM: Ajit Agarkar

Points: IND 2 RSA 0

Round 7

Pakistan vs Australia
South Africa vs New Zealand
Sri Lanka vs India
West Indies vs England
Zimbabwe vs NSW-QLD

Tournament still pretty wide open. Enjoying see the two separate battles going on here, what with the top 3 fighting amongst themselves & the rest of the field battling it out for those last two finals slots.

 

[mr_mister]

Unchanged again for the match v Pak

 

[Shri]

unchanged until further notice

 

[srbhkshk]

Let me try the last remaining permutation, Sehwag and Ganguly to open. Sachin at #3.

 

[Shri]

you need to give time to see if a pattern develops chopping and changing every game is a bad idea although sachin at 3 is a great one

 

[srbhkshk]

Yeah, I'll keep it at this order for a few games now. (I know it's just bad luck in the end) - but I am seriously annoyed by how the top three has sucked whereas before the tourney I thought they were the only hopes of this team.

Ajay Jadeja is having a great tournament so far. I'd open with him if I have the opportunity to.

 

[MrPrez]

Unchanged.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Jimmy, can you please replace Saeed Anwar with the deadweight Shahid Afridi? Thanks

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

After 6 completed rounds, here's the list of the top 30 run-scorers. Keith Arthurton and Brian Lara continues to lead the pack. Lance Klusener and Chris Cairns are toe and toe together. Sachin has found himself out of the top 30. His SR continues to be a concern for him and for his team; it's below 100. We finally have more than one keeper in the list lol:

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Here's the list of the top 30 wicket-takers. Ian Bishop is a handful and a half:
