Australia finish on 179-5 not a bad effort from Ireland there, they face a tough chase but one that given a decent start they might just make to cause another upset.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Mon Oct 31, 2022 10:11 am

Oh dear Ireland 25-4 after 3.2 overs.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Mon Oct 31, 2022 10:55 am

Ireland at least restoring some respectability after that horror start, 91-7 in the 13th.

Good effort from Ireland.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Mon Oct 31, 2022 7:57 pm

Well done to Ireland for making it so close, and their late rally hasn't half helped England's chances of reaching the last 4.

Bit of a farce tournament with weather, surely they should reschedule the games not played to a finish. Anyway England need to win here, decent start 35-0

Never one keen to jinx things..... Kiwis have started really well here

Come on now Jos make the most of that let off

Good start from England in a must win v NZ

KRBFC · Post by **KRBFC** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 8:40 am

Sri Lanka England double was 1.5/1, looks pretty good so far.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 9:11 am

Thank goodness England have finally decided to turn up at this event, and heading for a good total here thanks to the openers.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 9:24 am

England stumbling over the finish line now.

Could this be costly?

Clive 1960 · Post by **Clive 1960** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 9:48 am

I think and I hope I'm wrong but they are 20 runs short.

England having 3 spinners could be key. We found it hard to get theirs away.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 9:58 am

Woakes strikes early 8-1 after 2 overs.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 10:12 am

Curran starts off well and takes a wicket. 28-2 NZ after 5.

Good start to the bowling.

Oh Moeen. That is awful.

Conroysleftfoot · Post by **Conroysleftfoot** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 10:33 am

Hope that doesn't prove costly.

Usually does. Look at Buttler, dropped twice.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 10:39 am

Phillips looking dangerous. That drop could be match defining.

KRBFC · Post by **KRBFC** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 10:41 am

Desperately need a wicket in the next 2 overs I think

WestMidsClaret · Post by **WestMidsClaret** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 10:44 am

Starting to get sloppy in the field now. That dropped catch has rocked us a bit.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 10:49 am

Phillips winning this for NZ

Conroysleftfoot · Post by **Conroysleftfoot** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 10:52 am

Rashid has bowled superbly for England in the past but has struggled recently.

WestMidsClaret · Post by **WestMidsClaret** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 10:54 am

Needed that!!

KRBFC · Post by **KRBFC** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 10:54 am

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 10:55 am

Big wicket. Good bowling from Stokes.

WestMidsClaret · Post by **WestMidsClaret** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 10:56 am

Too many 6th ball going for 4s

claretonthecoast1882 · Post by **claretonthecoast1882** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 11:09 am

Brilliant over from Woakes

Bosscat · Post by **Bosscat** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 11:09 am

Wokes strikes ... Mitchell out for 3

Great win. Sam Curran has been unbelievable recently.

Bosscat · Post by **Bosscat** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 11:33 am

Its come on Ireland now and come on Afghanistan

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Tue Nov 01, 2022 7:55 pm

Beat Sri Lanka and England should make the semi-finals due to the superior RR advantage over Australia.

Comfortable win in the end but it sounded nervy at one stage.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Wed Nov 02, 2022 9:15 am

The upsets continue as Netherlands beat Zimbabwe, however neither will be staying for the last 4.

India piling up a big score against Bangladesh 121-3 in the 14th.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Wed Nov 02, 2022 10:21 am

India 184-6 big total, however Bangladesh giving it a right go 44-0 after 5.

claretonthecoast1882 · Post by **claretonthecoast1882** » Wed Nov 02, 2022 10:27 am

Litton Das having some fun against India

60/0 from 6 overs and he has scored 56 of them

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Wed Nov 02, 2022 10:34 am

Hmm! heavy rain falling in Adelaide, and Bangladesh will no doubt be happy if it continues as they are ahead on DLS.

This WC of shocks could throw up another surprise.

Shocking decision by the umpire team to go back out in that game…one would think it’s a bit fixed….

India run cricket, always have done, so it wouldn’t t surprise me

Unlucky Bangladesh and India profit from the rain when they didn't deserve too in the least.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Fri Nov 04, 2022 9:04 am

Ireland bow out after losing to New Zealand, still been a decent tournament for Ireland though.

Australia not finding it that easy against Afghanistan 112-4 after 13.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Fri Nov 04, 2022 9:49 am

Oz finish on 168-8 decent total but not one that Afghanistan will consider out of reach.

claretonthecoast1882 · Post by **claretonthecoast1882** » Fri Nov 04, 2022 11:37 am

Afghans finish 164/7

Rashid 48 not out from 23 balls is too good to bat at 8 for them in this format

Means we win we are through to the semis
