They won't have expected that.

Re: Cricket
Unless of course both of the last round of matches are washed out or no result, that's the only way India or SA can get through now.

Re: Cricket
Another shock on the cards in Cardiff, I had Bangladesh down as a one man batting line up and losing Tamin Iqbal in the first over should have been the death knell but they have fought back really well. There will be dancing in England's curry restaurants tonight.

Re: Cricket
Sad to see that the Windies are not in this tournament but it looks like there is a good reason fo it.

Re: Cricket
Maybe Den, but he's had more than enough chances.Im hoping it rains after 19.5 overs, match abandoned, no result and the Aussies eliminated.
I've just discovered the picture in picture function on my Samsung TV. This means I can watch the cricket and the Eng/Scot footy. Multi-tasking, happy days , Mrs K will be delighted

Yes it would have been a more funny result for all the Aussies matches to be rained off, and them get eliminated that way. The weather has let me down.

Re: Cricket
Feeble effort from SA so far, looks like all the southern hemisphere sides will be on the plane home.

Re: Cricket
This is so funny, especially the second one with both players diving for the same crease.

Re: Cricket
Looks like neither side wants to face England. Pakistan are lobbing up dollies and Sri Lanka are dropping them.
