ICC T20 World Cup 2024

been a boring world cup

Hardly the most memorable, but thought the Group stage had several good games tbh.

Super 8 looks quite straightforward though. Hoping SA, WI, AFG, can make things a little interesting.
 
Just like against us, England have done a really good job here of choking the scoring in the middle overs after the batting team got a good start
 
Awful by Baartman in this over. Might as well hand the runs to Livingstone.
 
Finally a boundary for England. Need a 6 now to make it interesting. 9 needed off 3 ballls
 
Why is Brook coming in so low down, 5 was it? He's your 2nd best batter
 
No real complaints there - just a good game.

Yeah I think with 101 needed off 9 we were more likely to lose by 50 than win so it’s good that they managed to save the NRR. Just frustrating that Livingstone got out on a full toss after doing all the hard work
 
Don't think that was a terrible result for England. In hindsight batting first would probably have been better but they managed to keep it close enough that it didn't damage NRR. Archer and Curran not bothering to run off the final ball was annoying though.

A relatively comfortable win against the USA tomorrow will be enough to finish in the top 2 so you could argue that they're still best placed in this group.

Yes - it does look like that. SA vs West Indies is an eliminator. It'd be a bit weird(and perhaps typical of their luck) if SA get eliminated having been unbeaten till now.

Yep, would be typical of our luck and the most “South African cricket team” way of getting eliminated!
