3 key batsmen for Zimbabwe. All 3 can take the game away from you
 
Zimbabwe - 64/4 (8 overs).

Final over. They should aim for 80 here. Can be a handy score.
 
Zimbabwe finish at 79/5.

South Africa need 80 to win from 9 overs.

Cricket has some of the most stupid rules. 5 runs for ball touching a falling glove.
 
8.3
Nortje to Milton Shumba, 1 run, full just outside off, Milton Shumba reverse-scoops and the ball goes off the back of the bat to fine-leg. And what do we have here: five penalty runs for Zimbabwe as Ngidi's throw falls on the glove lying on the ground. So that's bonus for Zimbabwe. The throw was on the bounce to de Kock who had one glove off, hits his pads and then kisses the glove lying in front of him

Four. Four. Four. Six. Four. Single.

23/0 (1 over).

De Kock has killed the game probably.
 
What a joke this game is... why can't the ICC have a 4 day gap in between the group stage and the knockout stage where they use the Docklands Stadium (indoor) to complete any rained out matches?
 
SA unlucky.. Pakistan will unfairly qualify through uncertain advantage. :inti
 
Shares points hurt us, so its better if there is a result so one team gets 0 points here
 
de Kock couldn't put bat to ball properly in the recent India series. Lulz.
 
Nagarva down. Zimbabwe trying to delay and get it abandon :)))
 
I actually wanted zimbabwe get advantage and get a point. But it hurts pakistan... Hard to decide
 
If Rizwan hits Chatara for 23 in 2 overs even I will be over the moon.
 
Bavuma -QDK innings reminds me of Kaluwitharanas - Sanath partnerships. History will tell the SL pair revolutionized ODI batting when Kalu was basically piggybacking on Sanath's explosive batting.
 
How many overs need to be completed for to result to be considered?

5
but basically if they bowl one more ball, DLS kicks in and SA win because theyve already reached the DLS target
but DLS cant kick in unless one more ball is bowled
 
South Africa, Rain and World Cups!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! An eternal triangular love story
 
All the talk about SA bowling but Rabada, Ngidi and Nortje are basically cannon fodders if you are half decent players of cross bat shots. Comparitively Parnel and Maharaj are better.
 
Once again rain have disrupted Sa worldcup campaign. If they win against both india and pak they deserve to be in semis
 
This is good news for us. I was worried about the NRR plus we would potentially relying on others to win/loose to go through. If we win all our other matches we should go through.
 
no result
yewwwwwwwwwwwwwww
good news for pak

this is actually bad news.

Both teams having point gives them advantage over us.
Because now RRR wont come into play, it can be like Pakistan 4 points and other side having 5 points.

We couldn't qualify the 2007 world cup because of this. Ireland vs Zimbabwe was abandon and both teams shared point. Pakistan would had qualified had zimbabwe won that match with 2 points, as that would had tied all three teams, but Pakistan had better RR.

This can come back to bite us. Not a good thing for us

Mate Zim were never going to beat SA. SA got 1 instead of 2 points. Use common sense
 
So, game has been washed out.

To make it worse, one of the Zimbabwean bowlers got injured.

In 2007 WC, Zimbabwe-Ireland game was a tie. Not abandoned.

But, yeah. You have a good point.
 
Embarassing stuff. I feel for the Saffers.

The whole cricket eternity should play a tournament and do a favour to them by letting them win a world tournament with no odds stopping against them. :inti

oh bhai, atleast try to understand what i am saying before talking about common sense.

it is better taht one team gets 0 and the otehr gets 2, instead of both teams getting a point each. Why? that is explained in my previous psot

sorry my bad, thanks for correcting me.

But yeh, points shared can become an issue for us which fans are not understanding. This is not a good thing for us
 
India benefits the most from this they just need to win 3 games now to qualify
 
I think its good for us, In case the following scenario happens

if south africa beats india and loses to pakistan they will end up with 7 points instead of 8

if pakistan manages to win rest of the 4 games, we will end up with 8 points

and if india loses to south africa but wins rest of the three games they will end up with 8 points

this zimbabwe no result gives us the edge, as south africa would have also boosted their NRR and would have ended up with 8 points .

India also smash minnow team better than us, they will also boost their NRR

Zimbabwe was never going to win against SA or is supposed to win any rest of its matches, so how is it a bad outcome for Pak? are you guys out of your mind?


In anycase, its SA who got robbed off 1 point and it is good news for us, we don't have to rely on NRR to get through if SA beat Ind and we beat SA somehow (assuming we win all of rest of our matches). If one more game of SA gets called off then we have a chance even if we lose to SA considering Ind beat SA lol.
