[Cricket] 2019 Cricket World Cup

[jakarta]

Not taken anywhere enough wickets, India are surely going to tee off very shortly. 207-1 after 35 overs.

 

[jakarta]

Acceleration started even with the loss of 2 wickets - which only means that Dhoni comes to the crease.

Just the 11,000 runs for Kohli...

 

[jakarta]

Back after Rain Break, 305-4, 46.4 overs. 20 deliveries for Kohli to get his Century and India to get 350-360 or so.

 

[jakarta]

Innings closed, 336-5, not as many as India should have got, but at least 50 runs too many I would have thought.

Difficult to come out after the rain break and thrash bat to ball for those last 3 or so overs.
Pakistan well below the rate at the moment.

Does Jaffa have a capital J?

 

[Sussex Nomad]

Unless, like yesterday where Sri Lanka totally rolled over and let the convicts tickle their bellies, this could be a game today. Weather is still looking bad though.

 

[Sussex Nomad]

Spoke too soon, two quickies, looks ominous for the Pakistani's.

 

[Steve in Japan]

Obviously Pakistan are a very capable team on their day, but today is not that day. That day was 3rd June.

 

[Gregory2Smith1]

can't understand why Pakistan put India in with bad weather forecast

throw the bat and maybe win by D&L

Play starts again at 7:10. Pakistan need 136 in five overs to win. Bring it on!

I think we know the outcome

DL tends to help the team bowling first as they know when they should and shouldn't take risks while batting if the rain is coming. Obviously meaningless in this case as they were well behind the rate.

West Indies vs. Bangladesh match clearly thrilling NSCer's...

Universe Boss out for a blob and West Indies not looking up for it (yet again) 32-1 after 10 overs.

 

[Steve in Japan]

I miss Bumble. Anybody know why he didn't get the commentary gig?

 

[Audax]

Bangladesh making a good start chasing 322 to win. 90/1 in the 13th and well ahead of the rate for now - can they keep it together? Shakib is in good form, needs Tamim to stay with him for a while and knock most of this chase off.

Last two days seeing the Afghans and Sri Lanka lose when being in an ok position, rolling over and letting the oppo's rub their bellies, I won't call this one, but Bangladesh are comfortable at the mo.

Yeah, it can change in a hurry. 112/1 after 16 now, still looking solid. Tamim on the verge of 50 at just under a run a ball, Shakib providing the extra scoring rate.

Windies v Bangaladesh shaping up to be a classic!

Windies v Bangaladesh shaping up to be a classic!

Yeah, hope Bangladesh don't lose a couple of quick wickets - they're going well so far
