T20 World Cup Game 41 Super Eight United States v South Africa June 20 2400hrs @ Sir Vivian Richards Stadium Antigua

[NYRB]

Corey Anderson looks like an Azam Khan Version II

 

[NYRB]

By Jeez I reckon that looked plumb for Anderson.

 

[NYRB]

6 then out for Corey Anderson.

 

[NYRB]

Maharaj getting turn here.

 

[NYRB]

Shamsi gets Jahangir and that did look dead plum.

 

[NYRB]

Jahangir is wasting time reviewing that. You have more chance of winning lotto than getting off with that.

 

[NYRB]

With the required run rate in double digits, Jahangir getting out was probably a better thing for the USA.

 

[NYRB]

Gous can whack them.

 

[NYRB]

Harmeet whacks Shamsi for 6 now.

 

[NYRB]

Gous is pronounced 'hhhaaaaauuuuss"

 

[NYRB]

USA Need 28 runs off 12 balls with wickets in hand to beat South Africa.

 

[NYRB]

Surely South Africa couldnt bottle this could they?

 

[NYRB]

Shamsi goes for a half century 50/1 off 4 overs.

 

[NYRB]

USA batted well in the back end there compared to the South Africans.


USA a tad unlucky not to go on and win that.

 

[ioppolo]

USA are a waste of a spot. Good going Pakistan.

There's a champions trophy for you to follow. Minnows randomly making it last group stages are the best thing in these major tournaments.

 

[Voice of the G]

Is this game and all following games the team that looses is out of the tournament.

 

[ioppolo]

Is this game and all following games the team that looses is out of the tournament.

Nah, two groups of four so they play three games each. Top two go through to semis

when did Jasdeep start playing for the US?

You mean the Jasdeep Singh that was born in Queens, NYC and has been playing for the USA since 2015?
