Woo! What happened in the second half of this chase?

Russel, Buttler, ATVG Moeen Ali et al. are going to make a mockery of this World Cup. Which already was a farce, even without them.

Are we going to see your boundless enthusiasm in the WC thread also?

Yes! Yes!! Yes!!! Wouldn't miss this for anything: where else would fifty meaningless overs, with the bowlers condemned to the role of being unadulterated cannon fodder, determine who are the moderate upgrades over others? Which can result in the magical metamorphosis of a hack into an ATG, trumping an entire career in a just a few days, nay just a few hours?

The sarcasm is strong in that post

I too am looking forward to the glorified bowling machines going for no less than 7 rpo for the whole tournament.

Why is it that tests are so much better (interesting to watch) than ODIs at the moment? There was a time where tests and ODIs were a lot closer in terms of watchability. Now tests are so much more than a moderate upgrade on ODIs.

 

[Andy1993]

77-2 in the 8th 85 more needed from 12.2

 

[trundler]

I sense a collapse.

haha wow and if you include the second t20i against india it's 5 t20s without a run

 

[Andy1993]

Much needed 5 wicket win that for Rajasthan! Malinga finished the game with a shocking delivery!!

 

[stephen]

Let's call him "Olympics".

 

[Borges]

Woo! Sand Paper Smith has been made the captain!
Every active convicted cheat except Warner is now the captain of some side or another. Edit: and Chandimal.

 

[Andy1993]

Delhi taking on Kings XI in the 2nd game of the day...

Kings XI batting first and are 106-5 with 7 overs to go

Gayle made 69

 

[SeamUp]

Really liking Shreyas Gopal. So tough to find a way into the group of Indian spinners though.

 

[Daemon]

Classic Narine innings at the top today

Karthik's been awful this season

 

[mr_mister]

Kind of a waste if Russell doesn't get to bat til the 17th over or so. Mind you hel still get like 40 off 10 balls but he should be batting above 7 now

 

[Daemon]

Yeah, although I can understand if they thought 8 overs was a bit too early to unleash him. One of Lynn/Singh should’ve started accelerating earlier though.
