Australia lost to Bangladesh :unsure:

You mean Zimbabwe? They also beat Pakistan o.O

 

Also, NZ won :D THough why they decided to play a T20 world cup on slow low scoring piatches is beyond me.

I think it's good change for once. I get really sick of those tiny grounds and flat pitches in India, where it's all about DLF Maximums and Karveen Kumar Catches and all that [cabbage]. That game was mean yesterday, and it didn't involve a huge amount of sixes and fours.

The IPL pitches were actually pretty balanced between bat and ball. But the shameless advertising everywhere I'm glad were left behind..

 

I havn't been watching many matches, might stay up tonight and watch India vs South Africa for a bit. 1.15am not that bad.

Interesting night last night, India beat South Africa with Suresh Raina making an awesome 101 before getting out.

 

I watched the repeat of the Australian game this morning and the last over of the Australian innings was a 5 wicket maiden :unsure:. But Australia still managed to go through for a win.

Yeah I was gonna do an all-nighter, but I had class at 11 and work tonight. Glad I didn't, seemed a pretty boring game...

I just went to sleep early and set my alarm. Was real dissapointed with that game...

I started watching it and it was going nowhere so I went back to sleep. On a better note Ireland are through to the super 8's :lol:

If only England hasn't stolen some of their best players, like Ed Joyce and Eion Morgan.

Last night wasn't very interesting :(

Yeah, but I guess they don't stand too much of a chance otherwise :mrgreen:

 

Been a good few days for Australia and New Zealand :P

 

Really surprised W.Indies beat India though, thankfully Gayle finally made a good score. Disappointing he didn't make his hundred though...so close!

Aus/Eng final. Aus to take it out sadly.

 

NZ are a terrible T20 team, completely lack the skill to score 150 or more, and on top of that we don't pick a good team. Oh well, I think we have more T20 matches vs Sri Lanka in the US, that'll be interesting. Dunno what the time would be here in NZ though, probaly bad.

They're in Miami, so it'll probably be an hour ahead of Carribean time.

 

Ok according to Cricinfo..

 

1st T20I: New Zealand v Sri Lanka at Lauderhill

May 20, 2010 (16:00 local, 20:00 GMT)

2nd T20I: New Zealand v Sri Lanka at Lauderhill

May 22, 2010 (15:00 local, 19:00 GMT)

3rd T20I: New Zealand v Sri Lanka at Lauderhill

May 23, 2010 (12:00 local, 16:00 GMT)

 

So I think we're ahead by 12 hours, could be ok times, if they're on Sky...

The whole "get the US playing cricket" thing. It won't happen of course but oh well.

Yeah, it's to do with some new partership we have with USA cricket. The stupid thing is the only people that play in the USA are ex-Pakastanis and West Indians. And probably some Indians. So not even 'real americans, lol

It's the same here in Norway. The norwegian cricket team was on the news today (I've never seen that before in my life, and couldn't find any press on them in a major popular newspaper online the last 7 years). They were all completely norwegian, no accents, but they were all of commonwealth decent. They were on the news because they can't play international matches in norway at all, because their scoreboard was used as firewood sometime last year. the press noticed today.

The game between Pakistan and Australia was amazing. 7/143 in the 17th over, needing 192 to win. Michael Hussey <3: He made 60 of 23 balls including three (I think) sixes off the final over to win the game.

 

England v Australia final, kinda surprised as England don't usually seem like a very strong twenty/20 team, I was really expecting a New Zealand v Australia final.

No love for England? :P

 

At the end of the day, the two most consistent teams played in the finals & someone had to win. Well done to England, first ever WC. So much better with the approach from the top rather than leaving it all to do for KP & others; a fit & firing KP is superb to watch. Hopefully, they build on this & replicate in all forms of the game.

 

India? Oh look there's a bouncer! Disappointing performance really.

 

How is everyone holding up? This topic is progressing at neck breaking speed :P

Have to say, Tamim is exciting to watch. It's crazy how the innings folds after his wicket falls.

 

India got dumped out of the tri-series, poor series really; just show that the bench strength is pretty weak. In saying that, Zimbabwe were good against India.

 

West Indies continue to get hammered, seems like there's no reversal in sight.
