    Are UAE players citizens?

    Which is why the eligibility rules are pretty much along those lines.

    17th Match - Afghanistan v Scotland

    You mean because of the rules, which they knew before they chose to review the decision, thinking it was caught behind? May as well complain about losing wickets because you hit the ball to fielders.

    Are UAE players citizens?

    As opposed to the numerous non-countries that have played and continue to play at World Cups?

    17th Match - Afghanistan v Scotland

    Yeah, when you voted against independence, it didn't mean you needed to start batting like us too.

    17th Match - Afghanistan v Scotland

    Here's another one for the crap innings thread. Assume Freddie Coleman will be back in again next time...

    Love his footwork

    17th Match - Afghanistan v Scotland

    I'd genuinely pay good money for the Kiwi DJs' playlists.

    How to find average 1st/ 2nd innings scores for various cricket grounds online

    Best I can do so far is RPO per ground: here

    Are UAE players citizens?

    What kind of question is that? Possibly because there's nothing in the eligibility rules that demands players to be citizens of the nations they represent?

    14th Match - England v Scotland

    It's been said before and should be said again. We are only in this tournament for comic relief.

    14th Match - England v Scotland

    The problem has been the sheer lack of intent and intensity shown by Bell throughout... possibly worth it for this gem from @ECB_Cricket...

    Thank **** for that.

    14th Match - England v Scotland

    Whoever came up with this plan needs to be shot.

    12th Match - Afghanistan v Sri Lanka

    I think an S&C coach may be a worthwhile investment, Andy.

    12th Match - Afghanistan v Sri Lanka

    Not for a moment! They could be keel-hauled across the Tasman for the quality of cricket they've offered up so far, but we still have 30 group matches, five involving England, left, which is far too many to be writing off as dead rubbers. You could have the scenario you describe, sure, but I...

    12th Match - Afghanistan v Sri Lanka

    Quite staggeringly unintelligent from Karunaratne.

    12th Match - Afghanistan v Sri Lanka

    As a counter-argument, you'd end up with a surfeit of dead matches across the tournament; you'd be sticking a fork in England already. The football leagues in England introduced the play-offs for that very reason - to keep the middle part of the table competitive for as long as possible, and...

    12th Match - Afghanistan v Sri Lanka

    Did that blond kid just say "**** ball" to the camera or have I been reading too many of you blokes' posts?

    Crap Innings thread

    Sangakkara v Afghanistan: attempted to run himself out twice before being cleaned out.
