ICC WT20 | Netherlands v Sri Lanka | Group 1 | 24/03/14 | Chittagong

[Batman]

Toss in few minutes time!

 

[Kianig89]

Could be one boring game

 

[Batman]

Sri Lanka have won the toss and will bowl first.

 

[Ikball]

Dont know why but I am having a gut feeling that an upset is on cards.

 

[Batman]

Same team for Sri Lanka.

 

[Poison]

Dont know why but I am having a gut feeling that an upset is on cards.

Mendis will probably take 5 today. Mystery spin is very hard for players who've never seen anything like it before.

 

[Artless Dodges]

Not that I have anything against Srilanka but I hope they lose this one. I want Group 1 to be a bit more close but by the looks of it Srilanka look automatics.

 

[Batman]

Should be second win on the cards for Sri Lanka.

NED need to post a good score here!

 

[Electron]

Lanka anthem just goes on and on...

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Looking to see Myburgh and Tom Cooper.

I hope they take the living daylights out of Sri Lanka!

 

[asadee]

Lanka anthem just goes on and on...

Just like their last names

 

[Electron]

Just like their last names

Haha.. good one. )

 

[Adil_94]

Lanka looking for a net run rate boost today Malinga will be too much for these Nakli Dutch players

[Poison]

Ffs sort it out Bangladesh! Shocking infrastructure, this has happened about 5 times so far.

 

[Kianig89]

the dutch have achieved alot already

 

[Electron]

Bangladesh organizers are a disgrace. If this match too gets stopped, then Bangladesh should be banned from hosting international matches for some time.

 

[Batman]

Cooper departs after first-ball duck!

 

[Poison]

Cooper departs after first-ball duck!

How didn't they cross when the ball was in the air?

 

[Poison]

Yeah it's Barressi out not Cooper.

 

[Kianig89]

Dunno what will happen when international cricket returns in Pak

 

[Red Devil]

I was looking forward to watch Cooper bat

 

[Batman]

The floodlights have malfunctioned and it's far too dark to continue playing cricket. The players are still on the field for now though

Poor stuff from Bangladesh organizers

 

[crick23]

Well this is going to be a short game

 

[Batman]

How didn't they cross when the ball was in the air?

Yup Barresi out!

 

[Dragon]

Ned you have disappointed me, was expecting a good match.

 

[Kianig89]

Imagine if this blackout happens is a crucial game like SF or a must win for some team :billyd

 

[Batman]

Cooper still out there!

 

[Batman]

Angelo Mathews is on a hat-trick!

 

[Adil_94]

Tbh this is a shambles if Netherlands get a point from this it would be a disgrace

I really hope ned scores at least 150 so we can at least have a decent match, seems unlikely though.

Mathews to continue.
