T20 World Cup - October 2022

[HarrogateMackem]

ICC will be hoping for an India v Pakistan final.

I mean of course, more fans would want that bar the English ones.

 

[Voice of fair play]

We need to go in with confidence and leave nothing out there.

This England side is a very good white ball side.

We clearly bat the deepest of any side in the tournament.

We as good as anyone and very good chance of winning this

 

[Steak Pie]

Shame that wasn't much if a contest but it sets up a cracking final either way. Almost want England to blow it for an India v Pak final. Almost.

I want an India Pakistan final coz I’m tired of my Indian friends going on and on and really need them to shut the f up. And nothing shuts an Indian up quite like losing to Pakistan. Been invited to a final watch party to “watch India win” id like to be the only one talking when the last ball is bowled

Win win for you that isn't it. If they do beat India then it'll be a hell of a celebration ! I used to work weddings, and the indian ones were always the best - they all know how to party.

 

[Silly Point]

I think that given that they usually refuse to play Pakistan, it is only right that India concede the semi final immediately, to avoid the possibility of having to play them

to be fair it’s not the Indian team or the board that refuses to travel to Pakistan, it’s the Indian government that blocks it. The players want to go and the board is money-driven it’s not gonna object to a huge payday. And every Indian i know would love to see it happen. It’s a pity politicians spoil the party

Great bowler, massive heart but it appears he's mostly made of balsa wood unfortunately. Hopefully it's a bit of propaganda to get the Indian's relaxing a bit.

New Zealand really surprised me today, they usually have a game plan and make it hard, bloody anaemic today.
So now its got all the looks of an India/Pakistan final ..cos of the atmosphere everyone, bar us.. wants...Blxx to that....C'mon England!!!!

To be fair, it was a tongue in cheek comment, not meant to be taken seriously and definitely not worthy of such a succint analysis.

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

good luck england.

 

[TheRey]

BBC reporting that Wood is a doubt with a stiffy back. Jordan to play instead

 

[Wayne The Punk]

My guess is Wood will play. Atherton was talking up Jordan instead of Salt for his straight bowling with the short square boundaries

 

[Bears Beets]

Of all the days to be in the office, work have chosen tomorrow.

ESPN Cricinfo it is
