ICC World Twenty20 2012

[Mike Hoxbig]

There's nothing more boring than watching spinner after spinner in a T20.

 

[Wall]

Pakistan were 60/2 at the same stage

 

[Abe]

They need 67 off 10 overs to go through. With 3 wickets down and good bowling that's a tough ask. There is no way they are going to chance it and go for 105 in 10 overs.

 

[sand_man]

Game over.

 

[Wall]

I hope Australia don't make 112.

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Yeah I have a feeling they're playing for 112 and not the win Typical bastards!

 

[Wall]

Collapse u bastards

 

[Devill]

My guess is that Aus are now going for the 112 and not the win. No point in risking their tournament just to try and win a game.

True

Sure they will end up with around 113-125.

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Cheers SA. Another tournament, another early exit.

 

[Wall]

Yes. Another one... 112 is still far away

 

[SaiyanZ]

Aus will still go through if we beat India later. The 112 is only to guarantee their place irrespective of the later match.

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Hussey is playing a fscking test match! And Maxwell needs to make up for his stuff ups in the field.

 

[poffle]

We dont deserve to go through anyway. Oh wells, theres always 4 years time

And if India beat us? And OZ score 111.

 

[killadoob]

O well rather go out now, better than feeling like shyte in the semi final .

 

[Abe]

Right now we don't deserve to beat India. AB said after the last game that they would shake things up a bit. Too little too late. How on earth could they not take the Aus game seriously. They treated the tournament like a joke and are suffering for it now. Brand new inexperienced captain, Levi, Parnel, etc.

How can we keep making excuses, it's the same thing regardless of captain, coach and who plays.

A poor tournament yea excuses, poor in everything that has world cup in it is beyond captain, coach and players

112 ensures Australia nrr is superior to Pakistan. If they don't get 112 Pakistan over take them with the possibility of India overtaking them too

 

[SaiyanZ]

And if India beat us? And OZ score 111.

If Aus makes 111 then their NRR should be a fraction lower than Pakistan. So India will need to win against SA by a certain margin to go higher up on NRR.

 

[Creag]

And why did I have hope? Why? Oh why? I feel more miserable now than when I was watching the Saffers choke over the weekend.
