ICC T20 World Cup 2021

Well looks like needing to rely on Bangladesh today was a step too much. Our remaining matches are pointless if SA get the win today, you would think.

Yeah that is pretty much done at this point:



Got to admit I would never have predicted South Africa would have qualified from this group
 
BD have been shocking. 84 AO in 18 overs.

Barely got to the Super 12 stage too over Oman.

Who am I to argue with Cricviz, but that feels skewed a little high towards SA.

Aus should comfortably beat BD.
If Eng then beat SA, and Aus beat WI.. Aus are through on points alone.
 
Why are Bangladesh shite at cricket? They've not improved much since their arrival as a Test nation.
 
Only we can make this chase of 85 a difficult thing. Can pull my hair out seriously.

:lol:

You'll get there comfortably in the end! Wish you guys would stop swapping and changing around your batting positions though.
 
This is poor batting. Should have been chased down in 11-12 overs. Aren’t they aware NRR could be a factor?
 
So dumb by us here. We need the NRR advantage, what are we playing at?
 
Despite England winning yesterday, it has convinced me completely that the toss is a major issue in the tournament. England had to rely on a worldie from Buttler to put anything that looked like a challenging total against a side that let's be honest they are head and shoulders above.

It's why I am not sure who is going to win the World Cup. Could easily be Australia if luck goes their way.
Yeah, I usually look forward to T20 tournaments and T20 WC is usually great but this one is unwatchable. Even with a worldie yesterday from Jos SL had a collapse at the top and then again when they looked like chasing that. Barring a seriously shite batting showing from any half decent team batting second this one's a done deal. Plus it makes those second innings chases really unwatchable.
 
Pakistan win the toss and bat first to test setting a total. Treating it like a practice game, slightly risky? Probably not.
 
Good chance to see how the batsmen go batting first.
 
Very good from Namibia so far. Pakistan struggling a little, like most teams batting first.
 
No wickets lost should see Pakistan put up a score too much for Namibia
 
The one thing we have not really seen tested for Pakistan is their middle order.

And we wont find out tonight either.
 
What a catch, Namibia giving themselves some hope of restricting Pakistan to something remotely possible.

Definitely. This World Cup is far from done.
 
Pakistan doing nothing wrong again.

Another boring run of games. Frustrating, the tournament cant quite get going.
 
Pakistan playing some really good cricket so far this tournament. Looks like the recent tour cancellations have really motivated them.

Would be great if they win this tournament playing like this the whole way.
 
What are Namibia doing in this last over :lol:

Poor lads have lost the plot.
 
A very good score & should give us some confidence if we have to bat first but I’d think they’ll stick to bowling first against the bigger teams.

Namibia’s fielding was very poor.

The fielding was very poor and then the field placings last over!?

I think the pressure the batting put on them scrambled their heads.
 
That review took far too long… wtf were they looking at ultra edge for :lol:
 
It’s really something that SA look like qualifying from this group. If it wasn’t us (which I was always doubtful of) I was sure it was gonna be Aus.
 
Nice from Namibia so far. Pakistan should wake up a little.

silly run out. Shame.
 
Comfortable win but the bowling wasn’t the best today. Hopefully Babar & the coaches remind them not to take things easy ahead of the semis. Momentum is key with these lot so have to play with the same intensity & discipline as the first few games.

Don't you only have Scotland left? I think you'll rest a few.
