ODI CWC 2023 Qualification Tournament

[Plugger35]

Just checked the score, wow the Windies all out for 181, they keep sinking to new lows.

The Scots would have to be favourites to chase that total down and pull off another upset.

 

[danstar]

Will back the Scots in from here, they have had a good tournament, would love them in the world cup

 

[danstar]

Scotland in the box seat here, you love to see it.

The Windies body language throughout this tournament has been poor to be fair. There needs to be a deep internal review of the way go about things .

They also need more support from the ICC, the West Indies being weak isn't good for cricket, the game is a lot better with a strong West Indies team.

 

[danstar]

Windies have completely checked out of tournament, had the easiest chance for a run out with both batsman at the same end and completely fluffed it

 

[danstar]

Scotland need 42 off 16 overs with 8 wickets in hand

 

[magpiemaniac44]

Pathetic from the West Indies, I'm not sure what they can do but they have to do something because they have lost to Zimbabwe, Netherlands & Scotland this tournament. It feels like they have had a significant turnover of players in their teams in the last few years as well

 

[akkaps]

I was talking to someone during the week, who said that the West Indies may have a better chance by disbanding and playing as separate countries

 

[NYRB]

First time in history Scotland have beaten West Indies in ODI.

We witnessed history today.

 

[giggler99]

Sad sight to see the demise of West Indies cricket

 

[magpiemaniac44]

The ball is in Scotland's court now, if they are good enough to beat the Dutch and Zimbabwe they should make it through to the WC

It will be difficult for Scotland to beat Zimbabwe. But Zimbabwe will want to win tomorrow to book their passage through.

Big game tonight.

[akkaps]

1 down for Zim in the first over.

 

[akkaps]

And another down. Zimbabwe just need to put their heads down here

 

[eltrain]

Zimmers not doing that well at the moment but my God what a vibe in that crowd. Reminds me of Windies crowds back in the old days

 

[hawkman]

Sri Lanka always seem to come up with the interesting bowling actions

Looks like they a Malinga replica

 

[NYRB]

Zimbabwe are in a whole world of bother against SL at 164/9

 

[big_e]

Saw a fair bit of the Sri Lanka vs Zimbabwe game yesterday.

As good as Zimbabwe have been, Sri Lanka were just in another class, never truly troubled.

 

[ioppolo]

Yeah Sri Lanka have been leagues above everyone else this tournament. Fair play to them. They're a solid team but just can't hack it with the next rung above.

 

[NYRB]

Think scoring will get progressively harder as the tournament goes on. Also with a slightly higher level in opposition as well. Some of these games are being played multiple times on these wickets .

 

[NYRB]

If I stand to be corrected Oman playing Netherlands in an ODI will be a 1st time these teams have ever played each other.

 

[NYRB]

The Netherlands have a slight advantage having played 1 game there already in the round robin stages, whilst Oman have yet to play at the Harare Sports Club.
