ICC T20 World CUP

[Ron Burgundy]

To date I havent found too much of Steve Smith's bowling worth getting excited about, but the ball he got Pollard stumped this morning was a gem.

[Lightning McQueen]

So, do we win the thing from here?

I think the Poms are the only team that can beat us.

Pieterson to be more precise.

To be fair it would be hard for a young leggie to have a big impact in T20 on the international scene, he'd have to be properly assessed in test cricket.

We play Pakistan in the semi's

We play Pakistan in the semi's

How much we win by will be determined by what bets the Pakis place on themselves!

Distinct lack of interest from the media shows that unless T20 is in your backyard it has no entertainment value whatsoever.

Man of the series will have 200 runs @ 20odd or something like that.

Agree completely. It doesn't translate well to the International format IMO. The only times I've gotten any joy out of the game is at the local Big Bash games with my boy or a couple of mates.

On TV = yawn fest.

Live = fun.

Neither = cricket.

I sure hope not!!

No just Fox Sports.

[FD88]

England coasting into the final. Hopefully the Aussies get over the line tomorrow night so they can go on and plant a nice little seed of doubt in Pommy minds (not that it really needs planting ) ahead of the Ashes on our turf.

How much prize money is up for grabs in this thing?

[FD88]

Oh, and I'd just like to say that the English commentators tonight have been a disgrace. You'd think they would at least make a vague effort to look like they're calling the game, rather than outright barracking.

The Indian commentators were just as bad for Australia's Super 8's game against India.

Although Chapelli is the Australian representation on the commentary team
