@No-Quarter said in T20 World Cup - NZ v IRE:
Very good performance overall, solid batting display and then our bowlers have done enough to get the job done comfortably, exactly what you want against a minnow that has already knocked over a top team.
That's presumptuous mate.
48 required off 8 balls We could be heading to a super over.

@Damo Afghanistan can play spoiler tonight and if they do pull it off, Oz will need Sri Lanka to win and win huge.
Yeah but that isn't going to happen.
Aussie will murder them. Aussie don't lose games to minnows at the end of tournaments. They generally only lose games early in tournaments.
I heard one guy on the radio this afternoon try and do the numbers and by his estimation Oz need to bat first and score around 220 and then roll Afghanistan for 80 odd.
I wouldn’t have a clue if that is right or not.

I will give the maths a go in the break between games but I read law, so you'll have to take your chances.

Kane the difference between the two sides in the end

It has been a strange sensation to be watching the Black Caps live and not have been panicking for the last nine overs
I was pleasantly surprised by only 1 wide and no no-balls
well done team..banana skin avoided

The comms just said if Aussie get about 185 they will have to bowl out Afghanistan for 0. 😆. England just have to win

According to me - for Oz to get ahead of us they'd have to bat first, score 232 and roll the Afghans for 48 - or something equivalent.
If the Afghans bat first it might not be possible - but that might be some muddled thinking.
Yeah I think you're right, Aus have to bat first and score BIG

They just won the toss and chose to field, those fools

Don’t they have to better our run rate?
If it’s on who beat who then we have qualified?
-
NZ
For 711/80.0 Against 542/80.0 NRR +2.113
England
For 397/52.4 Against 381/54.3 NRR +0.547
OZ
For 448/56.3 Against 494/60.0 NRR - 0.304.
Analysis.
I have played around with my spreadsheet. I have crunched the numbers, put in formulas, done the calculus.
I can report that I have no idea what Aussie needs to do V what England need to do.
I think I am qualified to say that Aussie need to win well and hope England lose, or at least don't win by anywhere near as much as England do.
Apologies.

I refer to my analysis above.
However I am fairly certain neither team have any chance whatsoever of overtaking our NRR. I am pretty sure we are safely into the semis.
However I refer to my analysis above as a qualification to my expertise. .
