Abandoned

Pathetic, what an absolute shitshow this tournament is.

This is like holding a cricket world cup in England in March. Madness.

Farce

Madness

 

[Silly Point]

You can't play if it's not safe I want to see a game bit only if its a proper twenty over match not a five over slog and with England's last two games I'm not very confident about getting through

Aye anyone who saw the farce that was SA v Zimbabwe the other day would say that getting a game on at all costs can also be a terrible decision. And besides even if it completely dries out, anything below 15 overs a side is a waste of time imo

Madness

They call it madness

Seeing Aussie crowds at the cricket in hoodies, hats, scarves, and jackets is something that just shouldn't happen

Out of interest - what happens if a result isnt possible in the semis or final?

Whole thing gets wiped off the history books with any sense. All results (all 5 of them) expunged as though they never happened

They'd have had better weather playing it in England right now


Nawaz has absolutely fucked it here.

Reserve days

 

[Rufus T Firefly]

New Zealand in trouble here. 15-3.

 

[JL1985]

Ironically only one match from over 20 possible has been abandoned in the woman's Big Bash.

interesting game this

What would be the best result for England, a tie?

 

[Silly Point]

What would be the best result for England, a tie?

SL win as it would take NRR out of the equation IF we win our last two, against both of these, I think, if my calculations are correct. We'd get to 7 points and they'd only be able to get to 5 and 6

 

[Rufus T Firefly]

Sri Lankan fielding has been awful.

 

[JL1985]

There’s nothing to fear from Sri Lanka, they aren’t very good.

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

What would be the best result for England, a tie?

I'd say a SL win.
