Anyway, we looked done. Lead is under the psychological 100 run mark. Decent recovery.

Check this for poor umpiring. This given not out. Run out direct hit. No drs so on field decision stands. No TV umpire to refer to.

They've just shown how KG got to 4 demerits - RIDICULOUS - he was given 3 in one go for the nudge on Dickwalla in the game against Sri Lanka.

Pathetic from the ICC, absolutely PATHETIC!

:eek:

Wait, no DRS or no 3rd umpire?
Nudder! Women's cricket not taken as seriously as mens apparently. Disappointing.

But the ladies are all over India. Their captain Mithali Raj ICC ranking of 2, out for a duck. 48/3 after 12 overs chasing 274 for victory. Clean bowled by Dane..

2.10 pm Welcome back. India's openers Smirti Mandhana and Punam Raut are at the crease. They'll have to take on Shabnim Ismail. A single slip, rather wide is in. And a gully as well. They clearly think Raut plays a lot more square of the wicket on the of side

Virendra: "It,s seem like a flat flat pitch, Mandhana, Raut, Deepti, Mitali, Verma,Veda all have scored so far on difficult pitches, so I think India will make it with 4-5 wks in hand between 45 -48overs." And if they do so, India will qualify for the semi-final

Four down!? Fark me, I'm changing over to that rather!
The game and team to be watching at the moment for sure. They punching well above their weight at the moment. Having a good tourney. India undefeated so far. Today they lose that status.

You know what, he's a professional sportsman representing his country. He knows the rules. Can't claim he was hard done by the stump mic either as he was screaming at the top of his lungs like a madman. No sympathy.

And the 3 demerits for a single incident?

Merv Hughes would probably have been banned for life in today's snowflake culture.
