T20 World Cup

[Cooperman]

Rain looks unlikely in Kingstown, Saint Vincent. But you never know, a big squall may blow through. If not then we’re all rooting for Afghanistan, right?

After beating Australia by 21 runs I'm pretty sure they won't be praying for rain tonight against Bangladesh.

After beating Australia by 21 runs I'm pretty sure they won't be praying for rain tonight against Bangladesh.

It’s the inconsistency that kills these teams. World beaters one day, lose to real minnows the next. Confidence will be high though, hopefully that can carry them through.

Hahahahahah it's pissing down!
Afghanistan 115/5 20ovs

Well this is dramatic. Bangladesh need nine from eight balls. Afghanistan need one wicket to qualify for the semis and put the Aussies out.

 

[exiledclaseboy]

And it’s over. Afghanistan win and dump the Aussies out. Sweet.

 

[Cooperman]

Incredible stuff, a bizarre game of cricket.

Bangladesh could have gone through themselves with a win inside 13 overs.

 

[TheLoneRanger]

Well done Afghanistan, kept their nerve, and great to see them in the semis. They could have lost it to the rain and the DLS par score, but kept taking wickets.

Linton Das must have been gutted for Bangladesh - carrying his bat through the innings and watching 3 /1st ballers up the other end!!

Thank fuk for that the horrible little twat!

I did enjoy his attempt the other day to paint himself as the victim somehow in relation to the ball tampering. Up there with Ponting as the worst kind of Aussie, love to give it out but fall to pieces when it comes back at them.

 

[Cooperman]

Needless to say that Afghanistan will be a little bit gutted with that performance. It would have taken some effort to beat Australia and South Africa in consecutive matches, but getting knocked over for 56 also wasn’t part of the plan.

Especially winning the toss and batting first - but 23/5 after 5 overs was game over.

 

[Swanjaxs]

Apparently there is bad weather about and the worry is for a washout, if this happens or they fail to complete the match the Indians go through to the final because they topped thier group, there is  no reserve day! How can they not factor in a reserve day for the knockout stages of a tournament this important, absolutely ridiculous.

Raining!!
