Afghanistan on fire against the Aussies!

I guess you just put their fire out!

Sensational from Maxwell.

Cummins' 12* in a partnership of 202 is the 50 over equivalent of Leach's 1*

Glen Maxwell .
TAKE A BOW !

E 194 - 6 36 overs, if only we had a crippled Oz batter! (Stokes is giving it a bash! (108)
E 301 - 6 47 overs.
E 339 - 9 IC

Nothing going England's way this WC!

Netherlands having a bit of a moment. I'll amble to the pub for the last few overs.

N 166 - 7 35 Overs

Game over won by 160 runs

It's 230m sofa to bar stool, don't think I'll make it before before last wicket.

That's that then.

I'm not too fussed about Whiteley leaving a year early. But it does mean that I'm even more annoyed about us letting Donald go.

I haven't heard a single incoming rumour. And I'm a little bit jealous about Warks picking up Garton.

If Ellis is part of Aus' t20 WC squad next year - which would likely result in him not returning next season - I wonder if we might be forced into replacing him with a middle order batter. But then again, any half decent overseas player will likely be at the t20 WC with him. Otherwise, Albert is our only spare batter to replace Whiteley atm.

I wouldn't entirely rule out Turner being included in England's T20 WC squad either.

Turner named in ODI and T20 squad for West Indies tour.

I was rooting for NZ before this little stunt so I certainly am now. Come on the Kiwi's!

Cricket World Cup 2023: India-New Zealand semi-final pitch switched - BBC Sport

 

[st_brendy]

For someone of Phillips' ability, that is a shocking drop. (Not that it should make any difference. I'm expecting India to win this match probably by a massive margin from here.)

 

[st_brendy]

So good from NZ so far. And yet they still have so much more to do.

 

[tiggermaster]

A long way to go but a game is brewing.. just hope it goes to the wire..

 

[tiggermaster]

Oops

 

[tomw24]

This is just getting a little interesting.
