ICC Emerging Nations Trophy (Sim League X)

Great performance! But it makes me wonder what might have been if we could have just snuck past Namibia.

You guys have definitely been one of the better performing sides that's for sure.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Big questions to be asked over Sarwan & Chanderpaul here.

Finally someone other than the openers took responsibility in a key batting inning. Well played, Guyana-Moos.

**** you GAS and **** off Namibia

If he's not winning games with the ball, he's winning them with the bat. Ehsan Khan WAFG.

 

[jimmy101]

What a send off as well!

 

[cnerd123]

he was getting ****y, stealing my double-likes and all that. This is apt revenge.

 

[jimmy101]

The final few overs of that epic encounter...

Scholtz with a key wicket, but Ehsan seals it with a boundary in the following over.

 

[jimmy101]

According to the game the exclamation point in over 52.3 was a massive shout for LBW. Corrupt umpiring?

Oh damn, I forgot.

Fun fact: Namibia were screwed out of two runs in the Kotze 148 game. The 4 JJ Smit hit at the end of the 49th over was only recorded as a single, despite picked up by a member of the ground staff a good 10 meters beyond the boundary rope and then thrown back to Hayat (?). To compound that a single was given as two in the final over, scorers really **** the bed on that one.

Anyway congratulations to HK, some much needed solace for them for the time until Winnie the Pooh inevitably decides to burn the whole place down

 

[jimmy101]

Scotland pushing Barbados really hard there for three innings' out of four, but sadly their campaign has reached its end.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

the department for drawing up the knockout bracket kindly requests we slow down a little to digest the result.
