ODI CWC 2023 Qualification Tournament

[NYRB]

It was criminal of Sri Lanka not to bat their full 50 overs against this Dutch side.

 

[akkaps]

Result of the other game. Ireland has defeated the USA by 6 wickets

 

[NYRB]

Dutch need 44 off 18 overs now with the 2 in hand. Edwards with a nice 6 there.

 

[NYRB]

Scott Edwards needs to finish the game off with his own bat or its game over. Sri Lanka need 1 wicket to win now.

 

[big_e]

While I think of it - respect to The Netherlands for having a proper cricket company in Gray-Nicolls as their kit supplier.

 

[NYRB]

Scott Edwards has the ability to power hit to boundaries. You would rather back him to get the runs then the number 11

 

[NYRB]

Equation simple now

Dutch need 38 to win

Sri Lanka 1 wicket to win.

 

[NYRB]

Don't know why the Dutch took a single off the last ball there.

 

[NYRB]

Do the Dutch believe ? 33 needed

 

[NYRB]

Dutch need 28 off 12 overs, with 1 in hand.

 

[NYRB]

Dutch need 26 off 11 overs, with the 1 in hand.

 

[akkaps]

Game over

 

[NYRB]

That one will sting the Dutch for a while.......

 

[akkaps]

Great effort by the Dutch to keep Lanka to a low total, and Edwards batted (mostly) maturely to keep the runs ticking with the wickets falling

 

[Some Idiot]

Missed opportunity for Netherlands, but Sri Lanka do have a decent bowling attack

 

[big_e]

Not sure I'm happy with the captain, with 50 runs under his belt, giving the number 11 most of the strike in that partnership.

 

[magpiemaniac44]

Edwards has played a few good knocks could be pushed up the order

 

[akkaps]

Johnson Charles and Shamarh Brooks both gone for ducks
Scots would be feeling good about this

 

[akkaps]

Brandon King now goes.

25/3 off 5.2

 

[ioppolo]

Scotland perhaps still seeing red from 2019

 

[akkaps]

The amount of swing on that. fk me

 

[akkaps]

Quick game is a good game, I guess

 

[akkaps]

However it is now Shai Hope and Nicholas Pooran that are in. If it's anyone that can save this for the Windies, it's these two.

 

[NYRB]

West Indies 85/6 against Mighty Scotland

 

[Cleavy]

WI 8/168 now after a mini recovery, 10 overs left to bat out if they can.
