Reading the news on this Cricket South Africa made it compulsory, so thus removing it as solidarity issue but making it political

De Kock by name and De Kock by nature

 

[Postman Pat]

England on top fielding against Bangladesh, 73-5 from 12.4.

Some kamikaze running from Bangladesh

 

[Pevenseagull]

Need 1 more 6 from England for £32.

Not going to happen is it?

Just going to nurdle over the line.

Bugger.


Edit: Hoorah!

 

[Postman Pat]

8 Wicket win for England with 6 overs to spare.

Looking in good shape so far

 

[Driver8]

Scotland started well v Namibia. 2-2.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

3/3

Will they make 60 again?

 

[SAC]

That was quite an opening over!

 

[Badger]

To be fair, Namibia is a country with FIVE cricket pitches. It's hard to compete with those kinds of facilities.

 

[Pevenseagull]

Scotland aren't very good at this.

I stand by this comment.

India have arrested people for celebrating their defeat

I reckon the Windies players must have had a little get together with a SE Asian Bookie prior to the tournament...

Not sure why Holder came in at 9 but Bangladesh have beaten them 8 times in their last 2 t20s so 2/1 on them today looked great value.

Nothing in it on the exchanges at the moment

 

[Pevenseagull]

well that was fun

I'm not sure why Holder was left out of the squad in the first place! ( Only called up due to injury).

 

[Pevenseagull]

This one's set up nicely as well.

Never going to be a big fan of 20/20 but an a chilly autumn day it's a nice distraction.
