ICC World Twenty20 2012

[R13...]

Seems like they've changed it then. Hope it stays this way throughout the tournament. Good to see Behardien given a go, although I hope that he won't have to bat.

I guess they (sensibly) decided that spin is the way to win in the sub continent.

"This could be as brief and one-sided as a duel at high noon between Billy the Kid and Orphan Annie. Let's hope that Zimbabwe can raise their game over recent performances." I think you could be right Mark, South Africa are a very strong side, so strong they've decided to randomly give Behardien a game - then again, that could be influenced by the stomach problems that affected the camp earlier in the week.

I disagree with the random comment.

Ah, it's Alex Winter! A one-eyed Pom!

Behardien is a quality player. Scores quickly and is a superb fielder.

parnell is a laanie of note...

Crowds pretty poor. Generally the crowds have been weak.

I'm a bit of a snob and don't believe tournaments of this nature should be hosted by these Mickey mouse nations.

Their cricketing pedigree is beyond reproach though.

We're bowling first.

Wouldn't it have been beter to bat?
Based on previous games, I think we can all say we know what the bowlers can do. A few batsmen have failed and this would have provided them good "practise"

 

[DrJohnZoidberg]

Shame, Zim getting hammered. Thor hammered.

 

[OMB]

well that was pretty mundane, I think there were more firework after the game than during it

 

[lilggg]

Was there a game on?

 

[Wall]

Clinical...

 

[Wovenhand]

Are points totals carried through to the next round? If not, the final game in this group is pointless as the next stage's groups are predetermined.

 

[lilggg]

I really wish this had the same format as the IPL, 1 group where everybody plays each other either once or twice, then best of 3 semi's and final. At least then the winner truely deserves it

Nope. First priority was to win and knock out Zim.

No points carried through from these games.

I believe we would have still done that

I believe we would have still done that

We can do it against Sri Lanka on Saturday... now that we have qualified for the Super 8's.

Support only happens if their are games from the sub-continent involved.

[SinghDude]

... On paper we have an awesome team.



Let's just hope the team performs consistently and plays to their potential...

Looking forward to see our boys against SL...

balaji has 3 Wickets but Steyn just two.So it proves Again Balaji is better than Steyn. Lucky that Levi played so that other teams can have a walking wicket.
