T20 World Cup - Other Matches

ICC Men's T20 World Cup

Group 2 scenarios - Pakistan hope that one of India or South Africa stumble on Sunday

India will go through even with a no-result, but South Africa don't have that luxury

Good evening emigres from the other thread.

I am not going to repeat my careful analysis from the other thread, but I will be cheering on Afghanistan and then England tomorrow.

Chaotic scenes as 5 needed off last ball results in a stumping. Players shake hands and walk off.

3rd umpire rules keeper took ball in front of the stumps so its a no ball. 4 needed off 1 ball. Free hit.

Sorry to quote myself, but I wonder if that should really have been a no-ball? Forgetting what the laws say.

Surely it would be enough to say that the stumping is disallowed without saying that it is a no-ball as well?

Warner setting out to single handedly rescue the Australian NRR. Not so much Cameron Green.

[No Quarter]

Hilariously stupid shot from Warner

Extraordinary. I've never understood why clean hitters like him resort to switch hitting or reverse sweeps. Seems such high risk for low probability reward.

It feels like something you could try to throw a bowler of his game if he's bowling well. Doing it when you're already on top is just stupid

Aussie in reasonable shape in the game at 86/4 after 10.4 but they have just lost their set batsman (Marsh) and really need to be on more to improve their NRR.

Good review. I thought it was out live.

Just outside off.

Afghanistan need to get one of these fellas or else thr game will quickly get away from them.

[Donsteppa]

Doesn't look like the Australian top order will be even close troubling the NRR spreadsheets after all..

[booboo]

Nice catch Afgan guy

Aussies not exactly ripping up trees right now

[Damo]

The OZ bowlers will have to do very well because the batting has not been convincing. Looks unlikely they will even reach our score of 185.

Maxwell farming the strike...

[Damo]

Afghani bowlers are impressive. It's a shame they had two washouts because they don't appear to be mugs.

We've made the semis
