ICC World Twenty20

[Milang_Panthers]

Great innings there from Nepal but would like to see Afghanistan win.

 

[Milang_Panthers]

Afghanistan 5-50 big trouble now.

 

[The Speaker]

You'd think Cricinfo would do a tournament preview before the tournament starts, rather than part-way through.

 

[The Passenger]

that tall left arm quick bowling at the end of nepal's innings... man he'd cause a few problems playing in the local afghani league. not gonna see express, but he would've been hitting 130 or very very close to it. low 130's i reckon.

 

[SRKamal]

Btw What went wrong with England's kit designers? The poor guys need to get a budget raise or we can predict the next kit England will be wearing. I mean Red shirt and Blue trousers? Looks like they combined the past 2 kits.

 

[The Falcon Strike]

Scorchers 5 genuine bowler team seems to work fairly often.

Just sayin'

Yep - trialling marsh as the 5th just hurt us. Get 5 genuine bowlers in ASAP. Given one of those will be Faulkner - our Lower order hitting is fine

 

[ioppolo]

Game, set, match for Nepal.

Coulter-Nile has a good T20 record with the blade too, would be terrific at 8 (if Faulkner was at 7).

just read on cricinfo in a one dayer last month against pakistan shapoor zadran was clocked at 142 with an average 134, and the other Afghan opener Dawlat Zadran (who i didn't see tonight) clocked in at 145 and average 138.

That's some pretty solid wheels.

 

[The Falcon Strike]

I like 5 bowlers but we do have Watson's bowling.

Watson's bowling is suited to test cricket not - t20.

He's good in a pinch when someone goes down or misfiring

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Bangles going down like a house of cards, 9/102 against Hong Kong!!!

 

[Kram]

Will be pretty embarrassing if Hong Kong can knock them off.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Bangles lose 7 for 23 and are all out for 108 in the 16th over.

Some of the worst batting I've ever seen.

 

[The Speaker]

go honkers

 

[Kram]

The first couple fell to very decent deliveries but some rubbish shots from a lot of the rest of the batting order.

 

[red+black]

I would be thrilled if Zimbabwe and Bangladesh get knocked out.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

This Irfan fella is plenty good value, 2 golden ducks, dropped first ball...........then plants one 27 rows back.

 

[DardySingh360]

What's the equation for Nepal to qualify?

 

[tigs2010]

Anyone see the bloke in the crowd digging for gold on international television late in the Bangladesh innings? Classic.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

What's the equation for Nepal to qualify?

Honkers have to get the runs in 13 overs.............and as I type, wicket falls.

 

[tigs2010]

What's the equation for Nepal to qualify?

If Hong Kong break 70 I'll be impressed.

 

[DardySingh360]

Love the comments from the Asian fans on Cricinfo:

"All in these new teams afganistan is still best. And bangladesh is a big garabage."


"****istan>Barmuda"

"Cngrts gentle Nepal frm Bangladesh idot afgan go home u drunk"

 

[Kram]

Crazy Danny Morrison..

 

[red+black]

Already clear that HK will not win in 13-14 overs.

 

[Kram]

Well they don't really have the motivation will be happy with a win.
