Warks 167-4

 

Lost a couple of stupid wickets and the rr slowed.

 

Should be a cracking end to the game.

Scores tied, Hampshire win by losing fewer wickets.

Its a bit amateurish isnt it?

The T20 World Cup starts tomorrow, first match is Sri Lanka v Zimbabwe, (15:00). I see we beat the Aussies in a warm up match. We also have a warm up match against Pakistan on Wednesday (05:00am) before our opening match against the might of Afghanistan on Friday (15:00).

The warm up matches look like they are setting the scene with results going pretty much to form so far

[lifetime fan]

the warm up matches have been on very small fields.

the warm up matches have been on very small fields.

Any reason?

[lifetime fan]

Not proper pitches, think they were training pitches.

 

The boudaries were tiny.

[Jose Jones]

I actually think Ireland have got a bit of a chance against the Aussies first up.

I would love it if they managed to pull it off.

[Jairzinho]

This is just on Stan James, no doubt you can hunt for better value elsewhere.

 

Tournament winner -

 

South Africa 9/2

India 5/1

Sri Lanka 11/2

Pakistan 11/2

England 11/2

West Indies 13/2

Australia 7/1

New Zealand 18/1

Bangladesh 66/1

Ireland 100/1

Zimbabwe 150/1

Afghanistan 500/1

 

Fancy West Indies at that price, time will tell how everyone adapts to the conditions though.

I'd have a look at Bangladesh pulling off an upset against Pakistan and New Zealand in their group. In fact that's probably the most unpredictable group going there, all of them can implode or play great cricket.

[Jairzinho]

6/4 to qualify from their group. Fancy New Zealand to miss out.

[Jairzinho]

£10 pays £36, if you pick the six obvious choices from the other groups to qualify, then have Pakistan and Bangladesh from the last group. £10 pays £31 if you just have Bangladesh from the last group.

 

Difficult to work out whether thats good value or not.

 

Hmm.

[Jairzinho]

Kohli 12/1 and Jayawardene 14/1 for top run scorer, I like.

 

Sorry for spamming the thread with betting stuff.

Bob Willis ripping into Pieterson just now on SSN...thought of you lifey

[Yozzer]

Root and Compton called up for India tour, Pietersen left out. Not a bad place to make your debut if you like high pressure situations.

'Universally hated'...had no idea he had that much passion about him..

[Indian Red]

India vs England starts just 30 mins before the end of another big game on Sunday. Could be an epic day or disastrous. Although to be fair both should already have qualified and might bea dead rubber. The Super 8`s will be ace if all the seeds make it.

Those odds on Pakistan are very tempting.
