ICC CT 2017, Group A | England [240/4] beat Australia [277/9] by 40 runs [DLS method]

[Anchorman]

Morgan really going for it after the break.

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

What will be the DL scenarios? [MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION]

 

[JaDed]

Bangladesh will qualify because they have completed their matches. Their points count even if they are 0.

If rain washed then bd going through because they have a win.

Thanks guys but looks like 20 overs will be done.

 

[HitWicket]

What will be the DL scenarios? [MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION]

112/3 would be the DL par after 20.

 

[Justcrazy]

up for poms

 

[MMHS]

What will be the DL scenarios? [MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION]

Aussies should be ahead for that 3 wickets. Don't think it'll be rquired

 

[JaDed]

Its not only about Aussie mentality but their bowling attack is top notch, Starc,Harzlewood,Cummins coming one after the other.

Their batting is hold/cold dependent upon Smith.

 

[Justcrazy]

Aussies pace attack is best here , to score against them is not going to be easy.

 

[JaDed]

Lets see how right Warne is.

 

[MMHS]

I think, surviving new ball had been the key so far. It gets considerably easy after 20 overs.

 

[Justcrazy]

Morgan

 

[JaDed]

I think, surviving new ball had been the key so far. It gets considerably easy after 20 overs.

Very true,looks like this might end up like BD and Lankan chase,ball coming nicely to the bat,backing Starc to comeback though.

 

[JaDed]

After seeing the last two matches don't think India's first 10 overs strategy is wrong,but from 30-35 overs and 40-50 overs is defn worrisome because of weak middle order.

 

[Justcrazy]

This will be key partnership for Poms , they need to get close to that target.

 

[BleedGreen]

if Aussies lose are they out of CT?

 

[JaDed]

Warne speaks as if he is the greatest tactician Aus ever produced luckily for Aus there was Steve,Ponting and then Clarke.

 

[BleedGreen]

morgan playing well

 

[JaDed]

if Aussies lose are they out of CT?

Yes,Bangla go through along with Eng.

 

[Justcrazy]

Morgan

77 . 3

12 overs

 

[MMHS]

Warne speaks as if he is the greatest tactician Aus ever produced luckily for Aus there was Steve,Ponting and then Clarke.

He is indeed one of the best cricket minds, but his entire thought process is on how to get a batsman out, rather than an all-round focus. He would have been a brilliant Test Captain like Benaud.

Nice SIX, top edged stroke ...........

 

[Yossarian]

if Aussies lose are they out of CT?

Even a no result (ie washout before 20 overs bowled) means Aussies go home.

 

[MMHS]

How Nas is sure that Poms are going to take PAK/SRL in SF?

 

[Justcrazy]

86 . 3

13 overs

 

[BleedGreen]

good batting

 

[BDfanforever]

How Nas is sure that Poms are going to take PAK/SRL in SF?

they have negative NRR, guaranteed to be 2nd.

 

[sadida97]

wow warne is not happy

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

How Nas is sure that Poms are going to take PAK/SRL in SF?

Pak & Srl can't top the table, very likely it's going to be Eng vs Pak ( Srilanka match is a practice match for Pakistan )

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Is Head's action clean ?

 

[MMHS]

DWL per after 20 is

106/3 or
127/4 or
153/5

 

[cricfan967]

Cummins pulling a Wahab here

 

[BDfanforever]

Pak & Srl can't top the table, very likely it's going to be Eng vs Pak ( Srilanka match is a practice match for Pakistan )

doesnt matter, Eng will have a field day with either of those teams.

 

[BDfanforever]

Wow BD qualifying to Semis would be absolutely mental considering they were in a very difficult group to begin with.Also, we were almost out against Aus. I guess sometimes you need a bit of luck...

 

[JaDed]

He is indeed one of the best cricket minds, but his entire thought process is on how to get a batsman out, rather than an all-round focus. He would have been a brilliant Test Captain like Benaud.

Nice SIX, top edged stroke ...........

I don't agree,maybe on field,but everytime he is on commentary he is wrong so many times about the player,see this time it was Cummins.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Australia require a wicket desperately.

 

[MMHS]

If PAK/SRL wins by 170 runs or inside 25 overs, does that NRR still remains negative?

 

[Justcrazy]

170 from 34 overs required

 

[JaDed]

England might be going through a revival in LOI,if Stokes,Wood and Root can inspire cricketers it will be amazing.

 

[Kianig89]

Ponying is he a commie or a street correspondent

 

[GLORY OF '92]

England looking impervious

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

doesnt matter, Eng will have a field day with either of those teams.

They got bundled out against Proteafire for 150 odd before the tournament, Root & Hales already failed, Roy loves batting against Pakistan so England will come good. Only team that can challenge England are Aussies, so yeh

 

[Kianig89]

The Old Lady has sung

 

[Justcrazy]

stokes

 

[BDfanforever]

Eng deserves this CT, undoubtedly the best side.

 

[Kianig89]

Aussie Ozzie pack ur bags when was the last time performed badly in a ICC tourney 92 2011

 

[Stallion__]

You can't contain this batting line up for such target. Have to go all attack and take wickets.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

In every team there is a Wahab Riaz

Aus : Cummins
Saf: Wahab Parnell
India : Umesh
Bangladesh: Taskin
Eng: Ball
Pakistan :
SRL: Perera
Kiwis: Corey

 

[Yossarian]

DWL per after 20 is

106/3 or
127/4 or
153/5

Cricinf says par score after 20 overs
112/3
133/4
159/5

 

[Kianig89]

Trump card Strac back in

 

[GLORY OF '92]

England will score 300 if they play 50 overs every time

 

[Justcrazy]

Starc is back in the attack.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Good Luck in the semis against England

 

[JaDed]

They are reading PP,got in

Shahid Stokes 2

 

[JaDed]

Saffers are the great ODI XI if billaterals are to be considered,doesn't work the same way in ICC tourneys,England is looking good.

 

[Sports_Psychologist]

Nothing is better than seeing Starc getting hit...!!

 

[Justcrazy]

Stokes.

 

[Justcrazy]

Required rate is below 5 now.

 

[BDfanforever]

India will be happy to play BD in semis...

 

[member250]

This Eng batting line up is ridiculous, I can't see Pak winning semi against them.

 

[JaDed]

India will be happy to play BD in semis...

So will Saffers d

 

[Executioner]

In every team there is a Wahab Riaz

Aus : Cummins
Saf: Wahab Parnell
India : Umesh
Bangladesh: Taskin
Eng: Ball
Pakistan :
SRL: Perera
Kiwis: Corey

Our Riaz is Shahadat Hossain

 

[Justcrazy]

Zampa , the leg spinner is on now.

 

[Coconut]

Man, stokes is good. Wow. Superb batting

 

[member250]

if Aussies lose are they out of CT?

yep

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

India will be happy to play BD in semis...

I prefer South Africa over India

 

[MMHS]

I think, there is a bit confusion on NRR calculation - how it works.

Let's take a scenario, that SAF beats IND by 10 runs in a 50 over match (no rain), after scoring 353

After 3 matches, their NRR will be + 0.685

Now, SRL batting first scores 170/10 (49'2)

To cross SAF's NRR, PAK's target will be in 15'5 overs (if they score 171), if 176 (that's a SIX to win from scores at level) target will be in 16'4 overs.

Or opposite, PAK bats first & scores 319 - they have to restrict SRL at 134 to cross SAF ..........

 

[Executioner]

I would rather face SA/SL/Pak than India in QF.

India are the better side in these situations. So tho I like Indian batting I am gonna root for rain tomorrow Lol.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Our Riaz is Shahadat Hossain

Probably 10 years back now it's Taskin

 

[Executioner]

Well bowled by Rubel Hossain today. Well supported by Fizz and Taskin. Shakib bowled really well. Our fielding was a bit sloppy with Taskin dropping a couple of wicket.

Our openers failed today once again and Mushy met a Jaffa but Riad and Shakib are giving them Aussies a counterpunch.

 

[MMHS]

I don't agree,maybe on field,but everytime he is on commentary he is wrong so many times about the player,see this time it was Cummins.

He becomes too emotional (sometimes even to people who'll share a beer with him).

Before his scandals, sometimes in 1998 or '99, he was appointed Captain of AUS in WSC, in absence of Taylor - I believe he won all but one match & his Captaincy was outstanding.

 

[BDfanforever]

strangely Eng's most difficult game in the group seems to be against BD

 

[Kianig89]

Eng vs SL/Pak

SA vs Bang

 

[Kianig89]

Shane Zampa

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Well bowled by Rubel Hossain today. Well supported by Fizz and Taskin. Shakib bowled really well. Our fielding was a bit sloppy with Taskin dropping a couple of wicket.

You are posting in the wrong thread and a day late too

 

[Kianig89]

Australia K.O from group stage never heard off

 

[Executioner]

Australia just batted poorly today at the end. 277 and I am sure even Bangladesh would have chased it down given our players have already faced starc Hazlewood Zampa once

 

[Kianig89]

StoKKes

 

[JaDed]

He becomes too emotional (sometimes even to people who'll share a beer with him).

Fair enough,but in that logic Gilly actually got Aus(captained) the final frontier (India),and he was impressive as well,maybe from a bowling pov Shane gets a lot of credit because he gives a "reason" for it,that reason always doesn't seem feasible.

 

[MMHS]

Cricinf says par score after 20 overs
112/3
133/4
159/5

I was calculating here

[James]

Bit of a pasting so far, Aussies need a couple of wickets here otherwise this is going to be over pretty quickly
