The weather is ugly. It’s not only raining but it’s turned cold too. I’m not sure the players will be charging out of the sheds to play

So if England vs Aus is abandoned this will help us no?

Depends I don’t want Aus getting any extra chance, historically if they lose early they come back hard, probably almost put money on them to win now

But can we trust England to put them away when it really matters? All they had to do was beat Ireland, and we were robbed a chance to lock down one spot by weather

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.
Bangles held on and win by 3 runs. Only watched highlights and looked a fun match.
-
Now a heavyweight match with Proteas getting 5 wickets by the 11th over.
India now 5/84 after 13 overs.
-
India finish with 133. Lost another 4 wickets. Only one decent score with Surya getting more than half of that with 68 from 40. Next high was 15.
A tricky score on a Perth wicket that doesn’t have the sort of bounce that it did in that Aussie /Sri Lanka game. The dimensions of the ground aren’t conventional either. But India will need to bowl extremely well to defend this score.

What's the format? I'm too lazy to look it up.
6 teams in a pool. 5 matches each. Top 2 go through based on win/loss and then NRR.
Cheers. So straight to semis. I like that.
Crossover? -

So looking at the table, one more win and we're through it seems
Australia have a shootout with England (and technically Ireland) to get NRR up to a level they qualify second.
Soooo, we should throw the match against England and back ourselves to beat Ireland - that way we kick the Aussies out of the tournament, and we will get SA instead of India in the semi.
Then we get a chance for redemption against the Poms in the final...
Easy.............

It's not the Kiwi way. Besides, knowing our luck it would backfire on us

Correct, the BC way is to have a meltdown and lose anyway. I like the idea of it coming before the final.
