Well South Africa won comfortably in their limited limited overs games against sri lanka
The West Indies have posted a formidable 191 for the aussies to chase, we all know the aussies are capable of it but its still a decent target no matter who you are
Easy for India tonight
Hi,
Sure was - they just totally dismantled England's batting with ease - at one point England were only one wicket away & in danger of being the side with the lowest score ever in the history of T20 Cricket.
To lose your entire batting line up in a 20 over game is really pretty sad tbh but I have faith they will bounce back - maybe this was their nemesis moment & things will get much better - hoping for that anyway!
Suave!
Interesting that England dropped their second spinner in favour of an extra seamer yet their batting was demolished by India's spinners. Methinks we got that selection completely wrong but still no excuse for such an inept display.
Still hopefully that's our one bad match out of the way so we can now go on and win the tournament data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
Great game between New Zealand and Sri lanka here
New zealand ran for 2 off their last ball and end up getting run out leaving a 175 for Sri Lanka, NZ could have just taken the single and given a target of 176 which in the end looks important
Last ball of the Sri Lanka innings and Sri Lanka need a single run, they go for it, the ball is thrown to the lad at the non strikers end and Ross Taylor drops it, but luckily the ball falls on to the wicket meaning they game is a tie and so we go for a super over to decide!
I think i'm right when I say that New Zealand still get the single offthe last ball even though there was a run out going for the second.
This game certainly is exciting.
oops, yeah sorry, only had one eye on the game at the time
thought there was a couple of wide deliveries from malinga in his super over bowing but its irrelevant now, sri lanka took it
I love watching chris gayle bat but much prefer it when its not against england!
3 sixes in one over just now!
It's a shame that bairstow didn't seem able to get to grips with the bowling as if he has scored at the same rate as the other batters (both England and West Indies) we would have won that exciting game.
It's also a shame that Jos Buttler was too inexperienced to just leave the first ball he faced, which would have then been a wide and a valuable extra run as well as putting the bowler off slightly.
I'm not sure about Stuart Broad's captaincy as it was a bit daft bowling Samit Patel to Chris Gayle when the latter was in such fine form
Another tight game between NZ and the windies, ends in a tie and a super over. NZ up first and hit a tidy 16 which looks to put the game in their hands. However Southee's first ball is spanked for six and to top it off its a no ball too! In the end the windies coast through the super over
So in the final game of our group we have to beat sri lanka to win, Kieswetters been dropped and we've won the toss and put them in to bat
Swanny's dropped dilshan in the second over and what should have been a fairly easy catch!
