The International Cricket Thread

They were poor with the ball today, certainly the first half of the innings and they’ve been poor with the bat in both games. Basically they’re in a knockout now, they’ll have to win all their games.

Match abandoned, Ireland win on DLS

I fucking hate Duckworth Lewis.

England nobody to blame but themselves. Choosing to canter to victory against Afghanistan rather than trying to smash them all round the park and boost the run rate means they could go out even if they win all their games.

Pretty disastrous result.  Think we would have gone on to win if the full amount of overs had been played, but should have not been in that position.

No they knew rain was around and got themselves in a position to lose. Well done Ireland, but really really poor from England. They’re basically in a knock out now. Buttler, Hales, and Stokes have delivered nothing with the bat so far.

Sat in the MCG. That was really poor cricket from England. And the forecast for Friday is not good at all.

It would be helpful if the New Zealand - Afghanistan game fell victim to the weather too. The group would be wide open but we still have to play the Crims and the Kiwis.

Another Brexit bonus. It really is time to let Ireland have a go at running Britain.

Eh?  What on earth has a T20 cricket match got to do with Brexit?  Very odd comment.

So players are allowed to play with a positive Covid result? I think that’s ridiculous personally.

Great win for Zimbabwe over Pakistan.

Just turn on the tv in time to catch the final over.

Ireland - Afghanistan at the MCG abandoned without a ball being bowled. England - Australia at the same ground is looking doubtful, what is it with this Aussie weather?

Deciding to play a tournament in Australia in Spring looks like a good call.
