T20I World Cup

[Squids]

Awkward moment when a Pakistan bowler doesn't chuck it.

[Jim05]

Pakis won by 2 wickets, were 7/76 chasing 133

Pakis won by 2 wickets, were 7/76 chasing 133

Amazing turnaround. Some of the Pakistani dismissels suggested they were deliberately wanting to lose the game and just when they looked to have no hope, Umar Gul who obviously wasn't in on the fix, unleashes a flurry of 4s & 6s to get them within reach and Umar Akmal finished it off with 2 balls to spare.

Super 8

India 7/140

Pathan 31 (30)

MOTM: Shane Watson

Australia won by 9 wickets with 31 balls remaining

[Jim05]

Watto the destroyer!!!!!
Absolute mauling by the great one

[Media Park]

Australia may be ranked 9th in the world, but Shane Watson is ranked number one.

He's beating everyone on his own!

Second most runs so far (164 behind McCullum 180, who had a 100 against a shit team)
Most wickets (8)
Most 6's (13)
Equal most fifties (2)

[Jim05]

Watson/Warner the first partnership in T20 to pass 1000 runs

[Pup]

Gee he was destructive last night.

He keeps batting the way he is we might just win this tournament.

[daysofourlives]

Watto has become the 3rd certainty in life, just turns up and walks home with MOM.
It wouldnt matter what happens from here he would have man of the tourny sewn up.

[Jim05]

Was hilrious that Warner had a LBW decision go his way and watching Zaheer and the other Indians sook about it.
You wanted no DRS you cheating pricks, sucked in

Watto and Warner need to score the bulk of the runs because there is a long tail in that side

It's becoming a farce this situation with the bowler knocking off the bails in their delivery of ball and then being called 'Dead ball".
Forever and a day, its been just another legit ball.
All changed when Graeme Smith was dismissed by Finn i think it might've been in a recent Test in England and the ump called Dead ball. Not sure if it was after Smith claimed he was distracted by the action? It's all been a bit messy since with umpires calling some Dead and not others.
Apparently so far in this T20 W.C. they've been letting the 1st one go and then calling them thereafter which seems ridiculous.
Finn just got smashed for 4 by Franklin but it's called Dead ball cos he hit the stumps with his foot so the 4 didn't count which is a joke cos it's no fault of the batsman.
Nasser Hussein thinks the ICC should sort out something cos its becoming ridiculous. haha, wishful thinking that the ICC would actually do something contructive.
Easy solution, just NO BALL the bowler. Problem solved. Simple.

[Squids]

It is a farce. Call it a no ball, calling it a dead ball is carp.

[Jim05]

Poms beat the Kiwis comfortably tonight.
NZ on the verge of being eliminated
Must beat the Windies in their last game and rely on other results

IMO it shouldnt be a no ball with regards to the batting side getting a run but it should be treated the same as a no ball.
So no getting out and you can score but the main difference being you shouldnt get an extra ball
