Intercontinental Cup 2011-2013

[Scaly piscine]

9th wicket falls, 25 needed.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Ireland win by 10 runs. What a ridiculous scorecard.

Ireland win by 10 runs. What a ridiculous scorecard.

It was a brilliant match nonetheless. I don't get how so many folk are bashing a wicket they haven't seen.

Erm, the low scores and number of wickets taken by spin on the first day?

 

[Prince EWS]

I can't believe Kenya didn't just open the bowling with two spinners in the second innings. We've just seen 19/111 fall to spin on the first day and they want to have a go with Odhiambo. If they don't at least open with spin from the other hand it will be a huge WTF moment.

This cost them the game in the end.

 

[Howe_zat]

Nutjob of a match.

 

[juro]

Who says you need a high scoring match for it to be exciting? And it's not as if they are missing out on gate takings for the remaining days...

 

[andruid]

Ah well, now on to the business of the One Day qualifiers

 

[Bonnie Prince C]

Mohammad Tauqir trying to slog UAE back into the match. Awesome start from Scotland.

 

[Bonnie Prince C]

Pulled level with 6 wickets in hand. Awesome stuff.

 

[Bonnie Prince C]

A really important partnership from Berrington and Smith. Still a bit of batting in the lower order, hoping for 300.

 

[Bonnie Prince C]

Maiden FC ton for Berrington awesome stuff. Talented lad.

I have to say I really don't get the point in Calum MacLeod playing, he is batting 8 and is presumably our 6th bowling option. I would have rather seen a specialist spinner playing.

 

[andruid]

Looks like the scots are gonna wrap up a nice little routine win here. Now Kenya really can't afford to drop points.

 

[juro]

The game proved much more interesting in the end...

 

[andruid]

All this rain all over the world has certainly eased the pressure on Kenya. Canada v. Scotland should easily have been a routine win for the Scots and Ireland v. Afghanistan's lost a day. Just as well Kenya's game v. The Afghans has been postponed to September cause the weather ain't much better. Having said that Mombasa's proved to be just as prone to Al Shaabab grenades so it aint that much safer than Nairobi. Would have opted for Nakuru myself.

this bloke's doing alright for himself, on 80* so far, his last first class match was apparently 10 years before he was even born which is also impressive

Finished with 102, it's his f-c debut - whatever you got that from must have been corrected. Two List A matches ten years apart, which might be some sort of record.

yeah they fixed it up, what they originally had was this



which i found rather humorous

i assume "he" played for lahore in that 72/73 match because it's missing from his teams

Matches sneaking up on me again. I pray that one of Kenya's batsmen discovers the joys of pushing on to massive scores. Kenya 82/3 (28.0 ov, CO Obuya 11*, T Mishra 8*, J Davidson 2/17) - Lunch | Live Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo
