T20 World Cup 2021
-
And for the number nerds Pakistan go 3-33 off the final 3!
-
13/1 off 3, Oz making hard work of it
-
Warner with an excellent innings but goes with the faintest of edges on a wide-ish one. Game on.
-
Pakistan have hit back with some vital wickets.
5-96 off 12.2 and both Warner and Maxwell in the sheds.
Shadab has 4-19 and 4 balls to go in his spell
-
Stoinis is the key here. I’ve seen him coast for his first 10-15 balls and then he goes bang.
More nail biting going on in both the crowd and Aussie change rooms
-
Argghhhhh dropped catch
-
Matt Wade brilliant ramp shot for 6
12 off 8
-
Boom another 6.
6 off 7
-
Game over!
Another 6 and OZ win.
Catches win matches 😉
-
Same result as our semi final - Oz win by 5 wickets with an over to spare.

watched a bit of it - Pakistan very relaxed about Stoinis just hammering deep leg side 2s all the time. Low risk, easy runs.
A few big hits in the death overs, and that's all she wrote folks
-
Glad it's Aussie. Obviously hope we win the Final.
-
Was hoping for a Pakistan win. Don't like our chances against Australia.

Poor guy, but he really should've taken that having done well to cover the ground.
3 balls later it's over. Brutal.

Wow! Conway is out of final after breaking his hand when he hit his bat in frustration when he got out!! What a massive embarrasser for him!!!

My initial reaction is not so much the embarrassment factor... it's that the win predictor for Monday 3am just shifted significantly... dammit!!

@act-crusader Absolutely amazing from the Aussies…they looked down and out at 96-5…chasing 176 with 8 overs to go ,Stoinis was very good ,40 off 31 balls,Wade amazing 40 off 17 balls …first time Pakistan have been beaten in 18 T20 games at home .
I really thought with Alfridi having a couple of overs up his sleeve he would be vital in terms of knocking over the tail , however did not count on Stoinis & Wade. -

Still in denial. Dammit!
Such a blow. If we are going to win this, Guptill and Williamson need to fire.

Three days to mentally convince myself that Conway would have been out for 0 (5) and that every run Seifert scores is a bonus

It is, I’m more upset about the effect it has on the test team though. I’m such an old fuddy duddy.

Bugger. Its all over.

That’s the spirit.
@Rapido that is such a “Black Caps fan from the 90’s/2000’s attitude to have”

There are good enough NZ cricketers to replace him and mean it's not all over, but they're not in the squad.
Dumb initial squad will surely bite us now.
The playing group in UAE managed to cover the selectors back home's muddled thinking initially with the Mitchell opening hail mary, and it has worked. Can they get a decent number 4 or 5 out of Chapman or Seiffert?
Seiffert to 5, and promote Phillips up one place to 4.
Better options: either Allen or Munro opening with Mitchell in middle order, or Latham straight swap. Admittedly, I wouldn't have considered Latham until that Bangla series.
-
Probably the worst final matchup for the local broadcasters as I doubt many Asian cricket fans will care now. Hell, the Indians would have watched just to cheer against Pakistan.
Not that it should bother us...
In Kane we trust.

If Pakistan make the final, we're a chance. If Australia make the final we are fucked.
Jeez Devon!!!
Even winning the toss won't offset his loss.
Must win the toss and bowl them out for no more than 120 or M4L's clause is invoked.

Yep, it's going to be like the Trans Ta$man Super Comp. Pointless or the greatest thing since, um, the test championship.

I’m covered either way.
If we win I’ll celebrate, if we lose I’ll point out that it’s not real cricket.
Seriously, massive game, won’t be too much sleep that night and it is genuinely impossible to call with any confidence.

Outstanding from Wade but oh that dropped catch

I'm similar. Achievement is getting there - winning is icing on the cake for me. Oh, it would be sweet to beat AUs in a major game though ... but they are a seroiusly good side.
-
Just watched highlights - that last shot from Wade was just utter bullshit.

We’ve got Kane tossing so we’re fucked #gettingexcusesinearly

I've watched it live and just watched a replay and that was something else from Wade. Talk about not being rattled about being dropped and making hay! That middle six was massive.
I'm ultra pleased for Shoiab Akthar!! Tool!
Am gutted for the poor soul who dropped Wade though. That will haunt you for a very long time I imagine.
