2024 ICC Womens T20 World Cup UAE Oct 3-Oct 20

[NYRB]

Tips for Pakistan to improve , instead of dollying balls up in the air by hand, hit them off the bat off their fielding coach. There is a reason why 8 catches were dropped last night. It’s not luck, it’s lack of proper preparation.

 

[Moonwatcher]

England work harder at their pre-game drills like Australia do, than Pakistan. To Pakistan , fielding is a chore . English ladies warming up for tonight’s decider in Dubai. Much more intense in fielding drills .View attachment 2143337

Did you go over just for the WC?

Did you go over just for the WC?

Yes I did.

West Indies XI: Hayley Matthews (capt), Qiana Joseph, Shemaine Campbelle (wk), Deandra Dottin, Chinelle Henry, Chedean Nation, Zaida James, Ashmini Munisar, Aaliyah Alleyne, Afy Fletcher, Karishma Ramharack

West Indies won toss and elected to bowl . They are playing on the same wicket as yesterday according to Cricinfo.

 

[NYRB]

stand up BigFooty it’s time for the national anthems …..

 

[Moonwatcher]

Another drop this WC

 

[Moonwatcher]

England look on

 

[Moonwatcher]

Strikers taught Dottin everything she knows in the field.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Run out given immediately by the on field umpire WOW

 

[Moonwatcher]

Third umpire didn't continue determining if the ball hit the bat because ball tracking was already available and showed that it was not out. Unlike the ICC to use common sense.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Sciver Brunt would be out if the WI had a review remaining

 

[Moonwatcher]

Best result for Australia would be England eliminated obviously but otherwise have England finish top and for NZ to win their semi.

 

[Moonwatcher]

141 hard to keep this England side to any less than that.

 

[NYRB]

West Indies would have been happy to chase 142 had you asked them pre-toss.

Knight unlikely to captain on field as well, so it’s game on for me.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Wonder how many overs WI would have to win this in to eliminate England.

 

[NYRB]

Wonder how many over WI would have to win this in to eliminate England.

Pretty sure a win by even a ball or 2 or better gets West Indies through. Was reading a bit about the scenarios on Cricinfo before game.

I want WI to lower England's NRR to below SA's.

 

[Moonwatcher]

SA are through to the finals apparently.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Matthews needs to make the bulk of these runs.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Risky single

 

[Bradesmaen]

Windies knock these runs off really fast please..

Commentators said SA have qualified. The loser of this match is eliminated regardless of margin.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Would be nice to go to bed though.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Matthews says whatever Joseph can do I can do better.

Not sure how or why because I thought NRR was before wins against certain opponents? All 3 teams can finish 3-1.


EDIT: Sky article says the same, it comes down to NRR with SA and England
