**Official** Group A Discussion - England, India, Afghanistan

[BoyBrumby]

Ha, finally. Probz a harder one than at least two that were grassed.

 

[NasserFan207]

Reckon Afghans have blown this already tbh. Had a real chance earlier

 

[silentstriker]

/facepalm - that fielding.....

Afghanistan are now officially a subcontinent side. Welcome to the club.

Well, dunno TBH, needs a big innings by the Captain though, but that's possible.

 

[Daemon]

they couldn't catch an ipl contract if one came along

Yeah I felt they were in with a genuine chance before all this embarrassment.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Afghanistan still have an outside chance of chasing this. It depends a bit on whether Irfan Pathan the minnow basher or pie merchant turns up. India's bowling is basically ****house. Afghanistan need one guy to get 70-80 and the rest to smash a few cameos (which is what they do anyway). The dew will work against India.

....well said

****'s sake it's criminal to give 5 runs away like that at this stage of the innings.

Yeah you never know in T20. One man fires and that could be all you need - one of the many reasons I find the format rubbish

 

[ankitj]

Rohit again comes in the last over

 

[Jayzamann]

Getting seriously sloppy in the end here. Had India fairly in check for a lot of this innings.

It's the reason I like the format. Never know when someone could come in and blast your side away.

 

[ankitj]

Beautiful yorker.

 

[ankitj]

A target of 160 feels good. Typically a minnow has one or two good batsmen that we need to remove. I don't know who they are, hope Indian team does

 

[benchmark00]

Stanikzai and Nabi, in particular, are capable batsmen.

Stanikzai and Shahzad are the ones to watch out for. Think Shahzad was injured earlier on though which will be a huge blow to the Afghans.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Should be interesting

 

[Daemon]

Pretty good stop on the boundary

 

[ankitj]

Making the intentions clear, the Afghanis. Impressive...
