Re: Cricket 2021
Pleased for NZ and, really hope they win the tournament now. Turning down a single when Rashid was impeded at a critical stage says it all about a team who plays hard and fair. They deserved the win.
Disappointed in England though. I didnt think we would go out on the back of a poor bowling performance. Even after Woaķes had taken 2 vital wickets in his opening spell, I messaged my son to say he had been lucky and was bowling erratically. Never seen Jordan bowl as badly as that.

Re: Cricket 2021
Neesham got into Jordan's head, and that one over gave the kiwis belief and had England questioning every move from then on
Re: Cricket 2021
surprised me, after NZ lost first two games I think..
however we have found a new mojo these last 18 months after winning at Lords, so who knows re the final.
them darn Aussies always rattle us so I hoping we dont meet them in the big one

Re: Cricket 2021
Dont think i've ever seen that before ...
Mohammed Hafeez bowling Econ of 54.00 per over
1st ball was a no ball and got spanked for 6
2nd ball (counts as first legal ball) 2 runs
Therefore 6 + 1 + 2 = 9 from 1 ball = econ 54,00

Re: Cricket 2021
Was that the 2nd s/f or a re run og the first?
Rrr up to 12 with 5 overs left fielding side in total control then bowlers all freeze 6's all over the place annd chasing team home with 6 balls to spare again

My unbiased prediction is going to plan,Barney wrote:First 20/20 semi coming up very soon will allow bragging rights between NZ and England.
Gotta feeling the tournament favorites will fall to our South Pacific cousins.
Not sure about Pakistan , the Aussie have a power packed batting lineup. If they fire as a group.
Hope the 4 man NSW bowling squad can hold the run rate.
Absolute unbiased opinion
Aussie Kiwi final.

Weaker teams have been found out with the Southern Hemisphere teams back where they should be, on top.
Good luck to our kiwi mates next game.

A precursor of the final
My understanding is that he will be replaced in the lineup by an all-rounder by the name of Charles Darwin.New Zealand's Devon Conway ruled out of men's T20 World Cup final against Australia after suffering broken hand
New Zealand's Devon Conway has been ruled out of the men's T20 World Cup final against Australia after he broke his right hand by punching his bat during the Black Caps' win over England........

Re: Cricket 2021
spot on prediction from samster .........fine margins dependent on the toss ......... as both proved to besamster wrote: ↑November 10, 2021, 6:46 amBarney wrote: ↑November 9, 2021, 12:29 pmAbsolute unbiased opinion
Yeah, right
Cant see the Aussies beating Pakistan.
England, without Roy, are a different team. Bairstow will open but, he's been struggling. Malan doesn't play well in these conditions and Morgan is another out of form. In spite of this, I still think we will have too much for NZ and, will win.
Fine margins though so, a lot will depend on the toss in both games.

Re: Cricket 2021
Yeah. My predictions 100% wrong! Barney was 100% right but, putting bias aside, I do feel both games would have had different results if the toss had gone the other way. That's cricket though.stattointhailand wrote: ↑November 12, 2021, 9:15 pmspot on prediction from samster .........fine margins dependent on the toss ......... as both proved to besamster wrote: ↑November 10, 2021, 6:46 amBarney wrote: ↑November 9, 2021, 12:29 pmAbsolute unbiased opinion

Re: Cricket 2021
Well it’s done and dusted. My unbiased opinions and predictions coming to the fore.
I’ll finish with another totally unbiased review.
Australia have quietly gone about business and taken the cup. Surprisingly their first one to place on the mantle piece.
Kane Williamson showed his class at the finish with the bat but not enough runs with the powerful Aussie first 6 batsmen following.
Tournament favorites and arguably the top 20/20 team were never in the hunt at the important end of the tournament after bullying their way earlier over some cricket minions.
The Pakistanis had a good crack but no chocolates.
Kiwis rounded off a very good tournament by reaching the final.
Alas it was against the best cricket side in the world as I write.
Marsh player of the final and the supposed out of form Warner man of the series.
A lot of confidence for us going into the ashes now with a definite 5-0 whitewash looming for the poms.

Re: Cricket 2021
No pleasure in beating New Zealand. Like the 1st 11 playing the 4th 11 or beating up your 8 year old brother when you are 14. It's just to be expected. Anyway regular programming has resumed in the world of cricket. Bring on the Ashes. I'm starting to smell a 5 - 0 summer.
Watch Me!!
Re: Cricket 2021
Must admit it still irks me to see those ' sandpaper ' boys still playing at top level..

Re: Cricket 2021
Poms arrived in australia and had to suffer the quietly celebrating new world champions on the same long haul flight.
I imagine the World Cup trophy did a few laps up and down the aisles for the losers to appreciate how a dignified celebration should occur.
