[Lako42]

Sri Lanka to win

 

[manxfox]

I've whacked my money on the kiwi's. i think there suited to this format!

cant chase 127 in 20 overs - and only lost 4 wkts :icon_conf

The Australians (for their punishment) are based in Hilton and/or marriott down by junction 21. They will be using counties ground and facilities/training school for the next 2 weeks. They are also looking to arrange at least 1 warm up game.
I can also confirm that the warm up match will not be against Fleckney Village.

meaningless match. They'll definatly make the semi's imo as there in the "easy" group. Then it's anybodys for me.

 

[Tamworth Fox]

Ireland being taught a lesson by India so far. 21/3 off 4 overs.

 

[Tamworth Fox]

Can you lose by less please; I dont want South Africas run rate to be so high ?!!

 

[GazLCFC]

111 from 20 overs! Terrible.

 

[Brauny Blue]

Its no more than i expected, the bookies didnt fancy England to go any further than the super 8's and as usual they are not going to be far wrong .
This game looked lost after the first 5 overs, and although SA have a quality side, England looked like they didnt believe.
Imo it will be Sri Lanka to beat SA in the final.

 

[GazLCFC]

SA 12-0 in reply after 3 overs. Need to get a couple of quick wickets to stand any chance of defending this total

 

[GazLCFC]

Smith gone. 17-1.

 

[Brauny Blue]

Not a prayer.

They will just go steady for about 10-12 overs and accumulate 70-80 runs. Providing they dont lose more than 2 wkts, they will probaly smack it all over the park and win with 4 to 5 overs to spare.

Done.

No idea why South Africa didn't try and win quicker, they didn't get much in terms of positive run rate from that. Which will help England too if they can win the remaining games.

 

[Brauny Blue]

SA win by 7wkts with 10 ball to spare.

Very easy win for them.

 

[Lako42]

Just put £15 E/W on Sri Lanka

£80 prof if they win and get my money back if they come 2nd

SA win by 7wkts with 10 ball to spare.

Very easy win for them.

I was there yesterday. Did anybody see KP limping about.

Rob Key should have started. If the opening 2 and KP/Rob Key got some runs we would have stood a chance.
