A nonsense that a game is abandoned at 3pm. England saved by the weather.
Cannit get me head around why there's 4 games played some days and only 1 the next in this tournament.

I did not realise thatMaybe so, trouble is we'd have been chasing 109
Still think we would chase it down but it would be a bit more difficult.

Why are they playing it in the Caribbean wet season anyway?

In T20 cricket nowadays 109 with 10 wickets in hand is definitely favouring the side chasing that.
With our batting as deep as we do would have been quite straightforward imo, but we will never know

We would have had to chase 109, mate. (Duckworth Lewis).
Jack Duckworth calculation.

Their peak cricket season tends to be Feb-April, the BCCI/ICC can't be having a World Cup then as it clashes with the stupidly long IPL

Nee f*cker ower there will be watching it on the telly. Should be two/three games a day, 16:00, 20:00 & and/or midnight or thereabouts.
You obviously wear your rose-coloured glasses when watching England's middle/late order batting.
Presumably England would only have had 3 overs power play i.e.reduce pro-rata. Seems unfair when Scotland had 6.

Mott reckons we would have knocked them off.
Meanwhile over on ITV Rishi Sunak reckons the Tories will win the GE. Probably more chance of that tbh.

Agreed. I don’t think we would have made that adjusted target.

Its pretty straightforward really.
Where Z equals overs to play we can simply use the following equation and as you can see, the answer is very clearly 109!!!
z=@(y)2*pi*(sqrt((44.56-y)/.16)+1).*sqrt(1+(1./(.32-.32*(sqrt((44.56-y)/.16)+1))).^2);
y=0:.01:10;%
A=trapz(y,z(y));
syms y(t)
eq=2*pi*(sqrt((y-44.56)/(-0.16))+1)*sqrt(1+((1)/(-0.32*((sqrt((y-44.56)/(-0.16))+1))+0.32))^2)

Somehow to suit the Indian market and the TV companies.
Why they couldn't have used the remainder of the day to play a full match in the game today is pathetic.
The will bend over backwards for the IPL and Hundred but the supposed pinnacle of the short format they give up with 7+ hours of playable time left in the day.
