So what would be the best result for England? Something like New Zealand winning on the last ball?

 

[straw man]

noooooooooooooooooo

In trouble now

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

What a catch!

Makes little difference really, unless England's match is rained off.

Would prefer West Indies to win so I don't have to worry about the possibility of finishing below New Zealand - which would be somewhat hideous. I suspect Australia would be rubbing their hands at the prospect of playing New Zealand in the semi - instead of England or even West Indies. Australia are the only team likely to be left who I think England would have a decent chance of beating.

If ever there was a time for Taylor to show that he can finish a T20 innings, this is it.

 

[Tricia McMillan]

I make my return after a long absence to apologize for possibly cursing the Blackcaps.

At the innings break I said to my friend, that if New Zealand manage to find a way to muck it up, I wouldn't be surprised.

Sorry.

haha, welcome back

a more traditional jinx would be something like "Oram's got this"

 

[Bahnz]

Ugh, I'm glad for the runs, but Taylor is just ridiculously one dimensional.

That's more like it.

 

[Meridio]

Well, we shouldn't lose from here, but it's becoming harder to win with an over to spare, which is what we should be aiming for.

Boundaries from Taylor helping matters though.

 

[straw man]

hey, hits to mid-wicket AND square leg, give the man some credit

 

[Mike5181]

We have lots of hitting power left so we should win this from here.

 

[Bahnz]

Just a ghastly over from Sammy. Taylor on strike and he proceeds to serve up 5 deliveries on middle and leg.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Using the full 45 degrees he has available to him.

 

[Daemon]

soo andre is in the team just for his batting?

 

[straw man]

Oram vs spin - so very predictable

 

[Bahnz]

Still a better batting option than Nicol. Or Oram.

 

[Howsie]

Just **** off and retire already you useless ****. He's been beyond **** this tournament.

 

[Meridio]

Great innings by Oram. 6 (9) was exactly what we needed.

Reading the description on Cricinfo, I'm getting flashbacks to Oram LBW Muralitharan.

 

[thierry henry]

2 off the over from Narine. Well done gaiz.

 

[Bahnz]

Fmd, these chumps just don't know how to win anymore, do they?
