    11th Match - New Zealand v Pakistan (22nd March)

    Assuming Pakistan won't win this, this could still become interesting if Australia beat India & Pakistan beat Australia, not?

    11th Match - New Zealand v Pakistan (22nd March)

    IMHO, it's a lot closer to fifty-fifty than many think.

    comical occurrences in club cricket

    Standing in the gully, I have had the pleasure of watcing the most ridiculous catch, from the closest possible position: The opponent batsman had edged a ball to where first slip would be. There was a slip, but he was widish. Both keeper and fielder went for it. The keeper got some glove on it...

    7th Match - India v Pakistan (19th March)

    Which is very important 7 hours before the match begins ;) !

    5th Match - Australia v New Zealand (18th March)

    Just roll the last ball. Because you can!

    5th Match - Australia v New Zealand (18th March)

    Just the 2 boundaries in the last 8 (or so) overs. And both of 'm were inside edges.... I cannot see the Aussie batsmen to bring their team home. EDIT": Oh, and when I press reply, a six is smashed......

    5th Match - Australia v New Zealand (18th March)

    Well, NZ do have Williamson to bowl some spin. So more than enough spin to go with. Not sure why Elliot is on again.......

    5th Match - Australia v New Zealand (18th March)

    Just got back. Left the game when NZ had scored 58 from the first 6. How did the Aussies keep things below a run-a-ball from there?

    First/Group Round - Group A - Bangladesh, Netherlands, Ireland, Oman

    They have to! And since it is T20, they will :D .

    First/Group Round - Group A - Bangladesh, Netherlands, Ireland, Oman

    Probably not the best thing to give the last over to Van Beek, but in the end 154 is a very gettable total.

    First/Group Round - Group A - Bangladesh, Netherlands, Ireland, Oman

    2 wickets for 3 runs in the 15th over. Nice!

    First/Group Round - Group A - Bangladesh, Netherlands, Ireland, Oman

    Keeping Bsngladesh to 70 runs halfway is a fair job, I think.

    First/Group Round - Group A - Bangladesh, Netherlands, Ireland, Oman

    Nah, the Dutch might actually send in 11 guys born abroad.

    First/Group Round - Group A - Bangladesh, Netherlands, Ireland, Oman

    Especially as there are only 4 Dutch born players in the selection :) .

    First/Group Round - Group B - Scotland, Zimbabwe, Afghanistan, Hong Kong

    Though 170 might very well be enough, I have some reservations. Stanikzai's innings will be judged by the outcome of the match. If Afghanistan win, he was the brilliant anchor of the innings, otherwise, he was consuming 40% of all balls available for a run-a-ball.

    First/Group Round - Group A - Bangladesh, Netherlands, Ireland, Oman

    The thing with T20 is that it is T20: Flukes happen. Quite a lot actually. So, the Dutch to get through once more :) . Not that anyone over here cares. Even in my cricket team only 3 guys know there's a certain event starting today.

    First/Group Round - Group B - Scotland, Zimbabwe, Afghanistan, Hong Kong

    Since there is, once more, not a iota of anticipating news, rumours, or pub-club-or-office talk in the Netherlands on the WC cricket, I'll ask a simple question here: Do we have DRS this WC?

    Your Favourite Cricket Stadium Name

    Centurion! For the simple reason the city was named after the park, when its inhabitants needed a new name for their hometown, as Verwoerdburg wouldn't do any longer. It's a shame the name of the stadium was altered.....

    ***Official*** England in South Africa 2015/16

    The impact was above the knee-roll. At my own crap-umpiring-level that means there is no way you can be sure it's not sailing over. Not quite the same as ODI-level, but still.
