The Hundred

[Howe_zat]

Fantastic catch.

One of the best things about T20 and its offcuts is that when a bloke gets on a roll the only way to do something about it is to get him out. It's really not all slower balls and wides.

This is a decent score. 160+ will be difficult in a final.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Pennington copping a proper pasting here.

Whiteley's a strong boy, eh?

 

[weeman27bob]

Milne was excellent, the rest of the seamers not so much

 

[grecian]

I remember being excited about going to watch Somerset-Sussex in a one-day match because of a young rapid bowler, but Garton was replaced by some bloke called Archer...

 

[BoyBrumby]

Jeez, that's a top grab from Singapore's (apparently) Tim David.

 

[Jack1]

Livingstone will be kicking himself, he was on fire. That hustle and throw was unreal though

 

[grecian]

Best death bowler in the World Jordan, you are having a laff, Livingstone gone end of match.

David with a truly great fielding moment.

 

[Howe_zat]

Fielding has really won them this. Not just the boundary throw to get Livingstone but half a dozen boundary balls saved as well.

Not even convinced he's the Brave's best death bowler.

Carlos just pumping up his fellow Bajun's tyres, IMHO.

 

[grecian]

Looks like another rubbish final, shame because despite the brickbats it's been a good tournament, but close finishes are what make all limited overs cricket.

 

[Jack1]

Mills is only going at 1.14 per ball in the competition which is ridiculous. 1-13 from 20 balls. finishes with 1.11 econ. Probably the 2nd best competition bowler after Milne, who only went at 0.95 with 12wkts@10.75.

With Jofra being broken I think he's a solid outside bet for the T20i WC squad, if his back is up to it.

That's yet lot then. Bit of a cakewalk in the end.

Think they have to seriously consider picking him for the team, never mind the squad, considering his form. I don’t want to see the likes of Mahmood, Tom Curran or Jordan playing over him that’s for sure

People actually watched it?

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

The fact that they had to bring in the boundaries for the women's game was baffling. It's so bad they want more boundaries...after all, they love boundary count back.

It would have been nice if the 22-yards was reduced to 15-yards for the bowlers.

Tim David should’ve been motm.

i HATE the bringing in of the boundaries for all cricket, and the extent to which they do it for the short forms is just ridiculous.

i get that people want nig hits etc but i hate the empty calorie sixes that barely clear a rope that's already twenty metres in from the fence

Well, the 'B' and 'N' keys are next each other, so I suppose you can have the benefit of the doubt.

Also empty calorie sixes is a great analogy. Feels so contrived when there's about an acre of the ground not being used. With respect to the Women's cricket I kind of understand it but I wouldn't have thought English grounds would be big enough to require it . I'd personally just prefer fewer sixes though.
