Group B - Pakistan, England, Netherlands

[Kyle]

Collingwood out. IMO not a bad thing, get Dimi in.

 

[Uppercut]

Was so sure that catch was going down.

 

[superkingdave]

Dimi nearly run out without facing a ball, not particulary hopefully of anything from him today tbh, they don't have any mediocre medium pacers for him to hit

 

[Scaly piscine]

England so ****ing useless against spin.

 

[four_or_six]

D'oh, Ajmal and that bloody doosra!

 

[BoyBrumby]

Ah, nuts.

That's the last hope of a competitive score gone. Swann in now? Fozzie?

 

[nightprowler10]

Yes!! KP gone! Great over.

 

[grecian]

Imploding, will struggle to get 175 now, which won't be enough.

Well done KP, though

 

[S Chanderpaul]

Foster ffs

Should be Swann

 

[stumpski]

What d'you reckon then, 185?

 

[Jarquis]

We'll get close to 180, maybe just get there.
I'd hope that we could win from that kind of position but wouldn't expect it to be by a bigger margin than 15 runs.

 

[superkingdave]

Should be Swann in here, can only hope for 180 now

 

[King Pietersen]

Eugh. Here's the customary England collapse then. We'll limp to 170 now. Not enough I don't reckon. Unless by some fluke Mascheranas manages to give someone a good smashing for the first time since, erm, Yuvraj? Has he done it since then?

 

[Kweek]

Distinct Aussie twang to Tom de Grooth's accent. What's his story? Played Grade in Oz or a poach?

has indeed Played grade cricket in oz...

his Parents own a house in Essex for quite some time including a cricketpitch plus field where he spends part of his summer as well

 

[Uppercut]

Yeah, Mascarenhas isn't the classy late-order hitter the commentators seem to think he is.

Eng lost their way... a little bit here... We could be in for an exciting chase...

 

[Jarquis]

4 for Mascarenhas!
Couple more of them would be nice.

 

[Jarquis]

Afridi bowling 79mph here!
6 for Foster!

 

[Kyle]

Fantastic last over, just need the same again.

 

[BoyBrumby]

That was better. 15 runs off the 19th. Par for most teams; dream time for us.
