Watson murdering the irish ! I want to see watson continue like that throughout the tournament

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

watson

 

[mosh101]

Oh No ! Runs himself out lol

 

[Big Harvey]

Ground looks virtually a cemetery with only some dead bodies laying here and there in the stands.

English County Championship matches get bigger crowds than this!

Clearly the ticket prices (starting at $0.20) were too expensive.

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

another

 

[Executioner]

wickets falling only in the latter end of the innings. If it was n the beg. of the match Irish wouldve been in a good position

dont see Aus losing from this position unless they do a Bangla special

 

[Executioner]

English County Championship matches get bigger crowds than this!

Clearly the ticket prices (starting at $0.20) were too expensive.

Even BD womens team matches has bigger crowds. I can remember one of the T20 matches between BD vs SA women being a fulll house!

Pathetic SL and its crowd

 

[Proud To Be A Pakistani]

Looks like another one traffic !!!

 

[mosh101]

White is struggling big time

 

[mosh101]

Game over

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

White is struggling big time

he has been struggling for a while now...i still remember his batting from 2010 AUS tour :shah

 

[style_guru]

So the no. 10 ranked Aussies have just bulldozed the no. 9 ranked Ireland.

T20 Rankings should've never been in place, until they could gather a decent sample size

 

[Executioner]

This is an UPSET!

No. 10 beats no. 9!
