McCullum is tearing into the Bangladeshis: http://www.espncricinfo.com/icc-world-twenty20-2012/engine/current/match/533276.html

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Yeah it's been a massacre from him!

There goes my Superbru prediction. These SL pitches are not playing at all like I thought they would.

 

[AirWolf]

McCullum out of the last ball - 123 off 58 balls - new highest T20i score.

Edit: And the only batsman with 2 centuries.

McCullum ruining by SuperBru prediction. Bloody Kiwi bastard...

Great innings though...

This was the first game with mixed support on SuperBru.

Hope the Bangladeshis make it to 166.

At least I'll get a point for a NZ win I don't think many would have predicted such a hiding.

 

[AirWolf]

I was hoping for too much it seems: 29/2 after 4 overs and this from Cricinfo:

So two strikes for Mills and that is a huge blow to any remote hope Bangladesh had...they're highest chase to date is 165...

Rain ffs.

Very slim chance we are going to get a game today:

7 over game. This is going to be a bit of a farce.

Total, waste of time. You don't need to be a purist to know that the 20 over game is a bit of a farce. 7 overs is sacrilege, period.

There's time in the day why not play a full game?

Was thinking that earlier. Who the hell knows? Maybe it has to do with tv rights and tv schedules. Cannot think of any other reason. Disappointing.

 

[WaxLyrical]

7 overs?
This must be a joke.

 

[sand_man]

Geesus, the anthems are taking longer than the game itself.

 

[MonkeysUncle]

Here we go. Even more than a lottery now

 

[Haldex]

Levi should learn to bowl since he bats like a tail ender.

 

[cybershark]

Farce, is the only accurate description for a game this short...
