A return to home turf see Wayne James dropped for a 2nd spinner. If Ujesh Ranchod doesn't play here, he won't play anywhere. Andy Flower takes the gloves, and David Brain returns as 2nd quick.

Thanks! I too find it interesting to see how it all unfolds. Formulating ideas for the next edition of ICC Sim League as we speak.

SL vs Pak is basically a knockout fixture tbh. Even a draw won't be enough for either side, yet the SSC grounds-people have chalked up an absolute road!

Kind of wish I picked more batters in my squad

Andy Flower (+)(*)
Craig Wishart
Guy Whittall
Heath Streak
Paul Strang
David Brain
Charlie Lock

Hopefully the AI actually makes use of the bowling depth here. We'll need it in seemingly flat conditions against a strong batting lineup.

India won by 9 wickets

Whilst this loss means Zimbabwe no longer can mathematically make the semis, they still have a role to play in this comp.

Unchanged thanks

Round 5

Pakistan vs West Indies - Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, Rawalpindi

West Indies won by 8 wickets
Man of the match: Courtney Walsh View attachment 27378
Points: WI 19 PAK 3

So many 70s in this game lol. Seems like the wicket got better to bat on as the game progressed. Our quick bowlers were relentless. Simmons provided good support. Chanderpaul continues to impress. Our last wicket pair barely managed to get us the first innings lead.
A good win that.
