Amla and McCullum opening the innings again for TKR.

 

[Hasan123]

Malik begins the tournament. Lets see what Ab can produce

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Wasn't Dave tv supposed to show the CPL?

They show the full game at 1pm. I don't understand the point of being the broadcast if you won't even show the game live

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Seriously? What a pity. BT sports were excellent last year.

 

[Abdullah719]

Good start by Parnell, looks to have improved as a bowler.

What a terrible innings by McCullum though.

And now Munro goes as well.

 

[Suleiman]

Oh man tough choice. Shobby vs Junior. Hope Shobby scores 50 but Ummy's team wins since his team needs it

 

[Hasan123]

Seriously? What a pity. BT sports were excellent last year.

Its a joke. I was suprised when I heard they moved on from BT.

 

[Abdullah719]

Umar Akmal walks to the crease......



..... and Umar Akmal walks back to the pavilion.

 

[FreakCricket]

Watchespn not streaming in US?

Where can I watch Cpl

 

[Muhammad10]

Decent rebuilding so far. These two need to launch some big ones now.

 

[Abdullah719]

Watchespn not streaming in US?

Where can I watch Cpl

In the US, it's supposedly on One World Sports.

Apparently they had signed a deal with Facebook Live to broadcast it online in many countries including Pakistan, but I don't believe that they've actually begun doing that.

 

[Muhammad10]

Good 50 by Amla in the context of this innings.

They need to get a move on though, Bravo in particular.

 

[Muhammad10]

Amla takes Parnell downtown!

 

[Suleiman]

Amla thriving in his comfort zone

 

[Muhammad10]

50 for Bravo as well; the floodgates have well and truly opened. TKR will be eyeing 160-170 now.

 

[Abdullah719]

For some strange reason, is bowling the last over....

 

[MRSN]

"Akmal is just happy because he's held on to one." Even commies are trolling UA.

 

[MRSN]

Malik gets a life courtesy...

 

[Muhammad10]

A sluggish partnership between Shoaib Malik and Steven Taylor is broken as Narine strikes.
104 required off 57 as joins Shoaib.

 

[super hitter]

TKR winning it all the way,,, need some master blaster

 

[Abdullah719]

Malik leaving it all to AB... not a great time to get out.

 

[Muhammad10]

Malik falls to Benn, which brings Pollard to the crease as Tridents require 77 off 6 overs.

 

[Muhammad10]

...and Pollard grabs a golden

 

[MRSN]

awful chase by Tridents. Shouldn't have sent Malik at 3.

 

[Muhammad10]

71 required from 5 overs.

 

[Abdullah719]

AB gone, match over. 100/5 in 15.1 overs.

 

[Muhammad10]

Can't believe captain Pollard opted to chase with three Saffers in his lineup.

 

[Muhammad10]

Pooran keeps it alive with a 4 and a 6.

57 from 4 overs.

 

[Muhammad10]

Narine strikes again. Trident staring down the barrell.

 

[Batman_DB]

was waiting for AB to explode but he failed once again!!! he is having a tough time in the caribbean

 

[Abdullah719]

AB gone, match over. 100/5 in 15.1 overs.

This Pooran guy trying hard to prove me wrong.

 

[Muhammad10]

TKR win by 11 runs. A very tame effort by Tridents, whose batsmen showed a lack of intent despite having a great depth in batting and many wickets in hand.

 

[Thivagar]

Good start by the American player.

 

[street cricketer]

Good start by the American player.

Ate up a lot of balls.

 

[Smbhayi]

So last 15 or so T20 games amla crossed 80+ four time (3 off them crossed 90 as well) with SR over 150 plus have at least another two fifty plus score too. Not bad for whom considered by not good enough to play T20 matches by majority of fans.

 

[Suleiman]

Good start by the American player.

Who?

 

[Smbhayi]

Who?

I think that Taylor guy who scores 37 of 36 delivery (?). He hit it well but have many dot ball.

 

[Smbhayi]

Watch this around 2:03 truly great delivery lol

They need experience, they don't practice like the players of full members, more than talent, it is the availability of the good coaching and knowledge. If you have been following the EURO or the previous WC football, you'll notice that minnow teams don't lose by 3-4 goals like before. You'll barely see a 6-7 goal game(LOL at Brazil). Cause they hire good foreign coaches with experience. It is the knowledge that many minnow teams through out sports they lack. The term "experience" refers to the knowledge gained from playing, failing and learning from the mistakes & outcomes. Rather than waiting for the "experience" it is better if you have players who are good listeners. Naturally, some people are good listeners and learners. The others don't have the inability to learn without going through the difficult. I'd like to use the Tamil saying "Ivangaluku patta thaan theriyum".
