Malinga the Swinga Posted July 1, 2023 Posted July 1, 2023 There are no terrors in Windies bowling, no frightening pace or mystery spinners. It won't be easy, we never make it easy, but they have every chance of getting the win.

If Scotland don't chase this down inside 7 overs then Cricket Budge out etc 😉
Dusk_Till_Dawn Posted July 1, 2023 Posted July 1, 2023 Mon the Scotland And England, who still aren’t out of this quite yet
Sooperstar Posted July 1, 2023 Posted July 1, 2023 Scotland will get there easily. I'd like to see them taking some more risks to get the run rate up. It's been a very 'professional' performance so far after some early misfields from the Windies.

We need to beat Zimbabwe & Netherlands and hope that Zimbabwe lose to Sri Lanka. Only 2 teams going through makes this tough. Edited July 1, 2023 by Malinga the Swinga
Malinga the Swinga Posted July 1, 2023 Posted July 1, 2023 Munsey goes but as he had slowed to a slow crawl, it's not a problem. 20 required but ages since boundary. Hopefully Berrington can see this through
ri Alban Posted July 1, 2023 Author Posted July 1, 2023 What's with the poor efforts in the WI's fielding? Pathetic!

Malinga the Swinga Posted July 1, 2023 Posted July 1, 2023 Really need Sri Lanka to beat Zimbabwe tomorrow as it gives us a chance to draw level with them if we can beat them
ri Alban Posted July 1, 2023 Author Posted July 1, 2023 Thats a broad scots tongue on McMullen. 😃 But I'll take it.

Malinga the Swinga Posted July 1, 2023 Posted July 1, 2023 Well done to Lords and England for producing a pitch that is so devoid of anything, that both sides have resorted to bowling over after over of bouncers and short pitched balls. What a shit state of affairs.
ri Alban Posted July 1, 2023 Author Posted July 1, 2023 That should be a six, if it goes beyond the boundary, whether it hits the ground or not.
ri Alban Posted July 1, 2023 Author Posted July 1, 2023 Did you not used to be able to nominate a runner if you were injured?

Was changed couple of years ago as too many folk taking advantage of it. Broad should bowl at stumps. Lyon can barely stand but they keep bowling bouncers at him. What's the ****ing point

Dusk_Till_Dawn Posted July 1, 2023 Posted July 1, 2023 This is developing into a really bizarre ashes test

The innovations in boundary fielding and the athletic brilliance of some catches/saves is more than worth losing a couple of marginal 6s
Malinga the Swinga Posted July 1, 2023 Posted July 1, 2023 Lyon scores boundary. This is mindless cricket.
Malinga the Swinga Posted July 1, 2023 Posted July 1, 2023 Wonder what Australia's tactics will be? I'll be controversial and say some short pitched stuff
merrymac Posted July 1, 2023 Posted July 1, 2023 Aussies firm favourites now Load the leg side bowl short and watch the England players hole out to compulsive hooking

What a shit state of affairs. That's the consensus. Pitch preparation isn't so simple. 10 runs per wicket to short balls.
merrymac Posted July 1, 2023 Posted July 1, 2023 Just now, Malinga the Swinga said: Aye, not exactly cricket for purists. No I prefer a flowing cover drive myself but it having worked for England you can’t imagine the Aussies with quicker bowlers don’t give it a go and they have also lost their spinner.
merrymac Posted July 1, 2023 Posted July 1, 2023 Wouldn’t it be ironic if the Aussies win by 150 after Robinsons comments
