ICC World Twenty20 2012

[Mike Hoxbig]

Parnell finally does something right, regardless of him bowling a no ball in the final bloody over. Tosspot!

19.4
Parnell to Williamson, 1 run, OUT
RM Hira run out 0 (1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.0

Game over. SA win

Still gives away 11 runs off that over, despite taking the wicket.

In the other match it looks like the Pakis might be hauling in India's total.

 

[DJ...]

Parnell is the Morne Steyn of the SA cricketing world...

Poms beat Oz,
Pak beat India,
Ireland beat Bangles,
WI thumped Afg

Promises to be an interesting tournament!

Pretty much what I expected so far. The 'Deshies are hopeless, Ireland was always better than them.

 

[AirWolf]

They're hopeless when chasing. Once they're 5 down then it's usually game over. Afridi is a walking wicket 90% of the time.

Wrong about the first bit; spot on with the second.

Impressive win for Pakistan.

 

[NeonNinja]

What really happened to boom boom Afridi?

 

[WaxLyrical]

Morne almost cost us the game.
They should have tried Duminy for an over or 2.

 

[Garson007]

I don't know what Parnell is doing in the national side. Absolutely no clue. He's never looked dangerous.

More like pop-pops these days .

He was good in 2009 (which is admittedly a fairly long time ago).

agreed, though we must remember that Parnell is ONLY 23. He's been around for ages but he is still a kid. I think he will mature with time and will be an excellent bowler for us.

Then he needs to go back to domestic cricket to practice his trade. He's been given almost 4 years of safety and nothing good has come of it, no sign of improvement at all.

- I never gave the Pakis much chance of pulling this off. Congrats to them.

- Gayle was in good form with the bat it seems.

- Ireland justifying their place in the tournament. Cannot be underestimated.

 

[Devill]

WI has an uphill battle if Gayle does not fire.

In T20 it only takes one batsman/bowler to have a good day at the office to make the game a lot easier / tougher for you.

I hope our batsmen fire, I mean we really have enough game changers in the team group, and I am sure every XI will include at least 4 batsman that are highly rated in the T20 format.

I just checked SABC website and their programming guide and they don't have the t20 matches scheduled, not even SA's...

Poor show. Come to expect this from them though.

Bunch of tits

They really are in shambles financially too.

+1. They could not give a fsck about rugby or cricket.

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

I've got SL to win on Superbru but I'm hoping that the Zimbos win

100% agreed. It's a win-win situation
