Azeem Posted October 13, 2023 Posted October 13, 2023 Smith and Warner are out of form and Zampa isn't taking wickets in middle overs. If it persists then Australia are out of semis. Quote
Azeem Posted October 14, 2023 Posted October 14, 2023 An opening ceremony just for the India Pakistan game after the tournament has started. Needles and pathetic In the Asia Cup they introduced a reserve day just for Ind Pak game so it wouldn't get washed out. BCCI turning an international game into backyard cricket, my yard my rules. All other spineless boards. Quote
Administrator Stan Posted October 14, 2023 Administrator Posted October 14, 2023 Hope you have a shit day @MUFC / @Beelzebub. But just for today. Love. Quote
Administrator Stan Posted October 14, 2023 Administrator Posted October 14, 2023 One of the most convincing wins I've seen us have over Pakistan. Quote
MUFC Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 Afghanistan 81-0 after ten overs. They're doing better than I thought they would. Quote
Administrator Stan Posted October 15, 2023 Administrator Posted October 15, 2023 Gurbaz is quite under-rated I think. Quote
Administrator Stan Posted October 15, 2023 Administrator Posted October 15, 2023 Afghanistan could be on the verge of something special... Quote
Lucas Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 Deserved loss. Two lucklustre performances and rightfully punished. You got to question the bowling at the start again and the batting just isn't quite firing at the moment like we know we can do. They were always chasing the game and never felt fully on top at any stage. They have made life very difficult for themselves now. With South Africa, Sri Lanka, India and Australia next, I think England really need to be winning three of those to stay in contention by the time that Pakistan game comes round at the end. On current form, that in itself looks a tall order. Glad for Afghanistan though and tbh, the tournament needed something like this. Too many one sided games, not enough nail biters so we needed a big shock to get things going. Quote

MUFC Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 Mondays game - Sri Lanka vs Australia. Both are yet to win a game. Quote

Rucksackfranzose Posted October 16, 2023 Posted October 16, 2023 Find it a bit odd Cricket matches have to be called off for rain, given that sport comes from England, were it, well, rains quite often. Quote

It's more for safety. Becomes too slippy in the outfield and risk of injury to players. Light rain/drizzle it can continue, but anything more and it's too dangerous. Today's was paused for dust-storm/sandstorm and safety concerns due to parts of the stadium/roof banners coming down. Thankfully nothing serious! 1 Quote
