Group B - England, Australia, Namibia, Scotland, Oman

[_Ed_]

Finally! Damage is already done now, though.

Tbh love that associates are finally getting some platform. Every world cup should have 20 teams here on

20 is good imo. Any more and you’d have too many Omans for England to stomp and build their NRR against.

No, the Singaporean finisher. Huuuuuge hitter.

T20 is very different from longer versions. Shorter the game, higher the variance. Being competitive at T20s means nothing re Test cricket.

Still, I don't disagree. Give them Test status, but only if they will actually get to play games

Yeah but they actually look up to it. Unlike some better teams, they are coherent units that have the basics down pat. And (agreeing with you) they won't be competitive at test level, but hey there's only one way to change that – and a promotion is certainly not undeserved for the likes of Scotland.

wouldnt it be great if Stoinis gets Aus the win then gets dropped for not following team orders

 

[DriveClub]

That should be sharifs last over, absolute trundler

 

[Brook's side]

Darren Sammy top bloke.

there's clearly no orders. at most it was left ambiguous.

More importantly they need to actually get to play Test cricket though. Ireland and Afghanistan might as well have never even been given the status at this point.

What happened to your match fixing claim?

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Yes!!!

Go you Scotties

 

[DriveClub]

This might be a nail biting finish!

 

[_Ed_]

Yes!!!

Go you Scotties

Hopefully another late twist! This has been a fun game.

 

[ataraxia]

The whole cricketing world rooting for Scotland here.

 

[centurymaker]

Scotland at least 10-20 runs short

 

[Brook's side]

What happened to your match fixing claim?

I had doubts for about 2 overs.
Less than you and other Aussie posters.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Australia have ****ed this run chase.

Poor form.

 

[Qlder]

Scots have a great chance if they get David soon
