Group of death this, all 4 teams an equal shot of qualifying IMO. I hope SL don't make it tbh.

 

[Flem274*]

Surely Sri Lanka cruise this

 

[andruid]

Surely Sri Lanka cruise this

Would not bet on it.

 

[CricAddict]

If this happened in Europe, it would have been tough for SL to get out of this group. Current conditions should favor them much more than the other teams and so, I think they will qualify easily.

 

[cnerd123]

God I hope Sri Lanka get thumped. All three of these teams are more than capable of smashing them.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Comedy cricket all round here. Cooper and O'Dowd bringing the lols with their running and Stirling does his very best to bollocks up a gimme run out by knocking off the bails with his elbow before he has the ball.

 

[slippy888]

150 Will be decent score here

 

[Daemon]

This WC will probably be low scoring if the IPL was anything to go by.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Hat trick for Campher!!

On the review too; is that a first?

 

[BoyBrumby]

4 in 4! Man alive.

 

[anil1405]

4 in 4.

 

[Nintendo]

Campher takes a hattrick. This lad is going to be an absolute gun player, ireland's shakib.

 

[Prince EWS]

The umpire clearly has no soul to have given that not out on the hat-trick ball originally. It was plumb.

Now he has 4 in 4.

W T F CAMPHER

 

[Prince EWS]

Hat trick for Campher!!

On the review too; is that a first?

Two of the three were reviewed too.

 

[Daemon]

Nuts. Get to 100 and it could still be a game.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Two of the three were reviewed too.

Thought the first one was more in hope than expectation, ballsy review.

 

[Daemon]

O'Dowd's baseball set up made me die a little inside

 

[Burgey]

Well you don’t see that every day
