Crazy that there's 3 gun leg spinning- bowling all-rounders running around this T20 WC at the same time.

I know Ish Sodhi has 3 test 50s, but all rounder is pushing it.

IMO you'd expect most sides to chase down 97 off 10 overs with 8 wickets down. Afghanistan's batting is weaker than most but they're playing well. Australia need wickets fast.

The way this cup is going though, there's definitely a greater than 0% chance (stole that line from PEWS) rain ****s over England anyway

What if they win after a Super Over?

 

[cnerd123]

I want Afghanistan to win but also it's kind of wrong to cheer for a nation that won't let women play sports

 

[TheJediBrah]

Are the Windies or Saffas not playing any T20s?

I would assume (hope) that he's not getting picked again. The only reason Finch has lasted this long in the team was they didn't want to change the captain right before a world tournament

How does this all change if England chase?

There's a greater than 0% chance that child consented to working in a coal mine.

- PEWS (probably)

AFG won't win but this has been very lacklustre from AUS today.

Lacklustre? Aus have been totally ratshit. They were poor with the bat, and they've been poor with the ball and in the field.
They're playing AFG, FFS. They should be destroying them.

 

[mr_mister]

Should we just put a bat pad and silly mid off in for Zampa? Need to win by a lot

 

[TheJediBrah]

What if they win after a Super Over?

Super over win would make England's NRR go down, but the way this is looking it won't be enough to cost them a final

Shadab is the new''man''

And it was brilliantly called by PEWS last night.

It's been a genuinely terrible World Cup. Thrashed by the Kiwis, needed Stoinis to redline against Sri Lanka, let Ireland back in the game after a dominant first six overs.

Frankly the whole side needs a big reality check about how to play T20's.

SA are only playing tests. Odi's were canceled due to clash with SA20.

 

[morgieb]

Well, that's some over. Afghanistan favourites now?

 

[Spark]

lol

 

[trundler]

I feel like we've sufficiently established that Kane Richardson sucks by now.

 

[_Ed_]

This is sensational.

 

[morgieb]

Maybe Aaron Finch shouldn't be retiring. Whatever you say about his batting, he does at least seem to know how to lead a side....
