112-5 off 16 overs

Sharma gone

[McNamara That Ghost...]

India. :rose:

[Cripps_orig]

Think they can win the match but doubt they will win it by 30 odd runs

It should go on head to head record, not run rate tbh

[Cripps_orig]

129-5 off 18 overs

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Think they can win the match but doubt they will win it by 30 odd runs

That's the thing, SA failing to get 110-120 seems fairly unlikely.

[Cripps_orig]

143-5 off 19 overs

Decent over but need a 20+ one from the last over

[Syn]

I don't understand Sharma's innings. He was playing only for himself...and he didn't even do that well.

He should just be banned from cricket.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

152-6 off the 20 overs.

[Cripps_orig]

152-6 off 20 overs

Raina was run out last ball

Will need a big bowling effort

[Cripps_orig]

0-1

Amla gone

What a catch by Sehwag

[Syn]

What's the point getting a testicle like Amla out? Should've just let him stand there on 10* off 73 balls.

Sehwag :doh:

Can't do anything right.

[Cripps_orig]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

The end is nigh for India.

[Cripps_orig]

104-4 off 14 overs

India are out

[Cripps_orig]

107-5 off 15 overs

Duminy gone

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Peterson originally given out. Unfortunately it was a massive no ball. Lucky for him given it was a stupid switch hit.

[Cripps_orig]

Wicket off a no ball :doh:

Free hit as well now

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And Peterson was bowled off the free hit. :haha:

[Cripps_orig]

Peterson is bowled off the free hit :lol:

But cant be out

[Cripps_orig]

Pakistan are through

T20s are a bit shit tbh

[Cripps_orig]

Behardien gone

[Cripps_orig]

Botha gone

[Cripps_orig]

139-8 off 19 overs

14 needed off the last over

[Cripps_orig]

145-9

Morkel gone

8 off 4 needed

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a shot by Morkel. 2 off 2 needed.

[Cripps_orig]

2 off 2 needed with one wicket remaining

[McNamara That Ghost...]

However India win!

[Cripps_orig]

And hes bowled!!!!

India win by 1 run

What a match

India :bow:

T20s :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sri Lanka only made 139-4 off their 20 overs in the first semi-final, against Pakistan.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

31-1, Mendis gets Nazir.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

55-2. Jamshed. :wave:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It pitched outside leg. No DRS. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

57-3, off goes K. Akmal!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

64-4, Herath bowls Malik.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Malinga just dropped the Ashes!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

91-5, Hafeez stumped on 42. Herath bowling.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Boom Boom time!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And he's bowled first ball! :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

113-7, Mendis gets Tanvir.

27 needed off 14.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

23 from 6 needed. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

22 from 3 needed. :lol:

Well done Sri Lanka.

[Dennis Bendtner]

apparently that was boom boom's 23rd golden duck for Pakistan

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sri Lanka win by 16 runs!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

apparently that was boom boom's 23rd golden duck for Pakistan

:lol:

I wonder if it has anything to do with how he approaches his innings.

[Dennis Bendtner]

I would like to get inside his mind for a day. I can imagine him having a similar brain to Gervinho.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Australia vs West Indies is on now. West Indies are batting first.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

16-1, Charles with a terrible swing.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Gayle has barely faced any deliveries. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

64-2 off 9 overs. Gayle has still only faced 14 balls.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Gayle smacks it for six and the copper takes the catch. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

50 for Gayle. :bow:

Only faced 29 balls. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

146-3, Dwayne Bravo went for 37.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Aussies are getting hammered. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What spinner gives Gayle a full toss to play with?

Doherty. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Incredible hitting from Pollard. 199 up for Windies. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And another six!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

205-4 off 20 overs, Pollard out on the final ball. 25 off the final over. :haha:

That was amazing.

Windies. :bow:

[Dennis Bendtner]

The last over! :haha:

First ball an absolute pie. All went wrong from there. Surely the Windies must win this.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bailey. :haha:

Brilliant captaincy to let Doherty have the last over. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Watson and Samuels are already having a tear-up!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a ridiculous way to go. :haha:

2-1, off you go Warner.

[Dennis Bendtner]

Bailey. :haha:

Brilliant captaincy to let Doherty have the last over. :lol:

He is basically a specialist captain as no one has a clue who he is. Good tactical acumen there.

Warner. :haha:

I hate that guy.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

22-2, Mr. Cricket. :wave:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

29-3, Watson bowled!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

42-4. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

42-5! :haha:

Mr Cricket's brother. :wave:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

6.3 overs in, required rate an over: 12.15. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

43-6, Narine gets his bunny Wade again!

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

When did Australia become England?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

When England became Australia. For a little bit.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Aussies just got their own 25 runs from an over. :blink:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

111-7, Bailey played well but he goes on Nelson.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

111-8, Nelson claims another one!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

121-9, Hogg is gone. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Windies win by 74 runs! :bow:

In to the final.

Aussies. :haha:

[Cripps_orig]

Gayle is awesome.

Kinda feel sorry for the dude in the same way i feel for Messi in that if Sehwag wasnt around or Ronaldo in Messis case, he'd be the most exciting player in the world atm

[Cripps_orig]

Sri Lanka v West Indies in the biggest Cricket game since the 2011 ODI WC final today

Cant be missed

Which i will cos of work

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Aussies just beat England in the women's final. :rose:

6 was needed off the last over with one wicket remaining. And it didn't come.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Windies win the toss and will bat first.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Play has just begun. :popcorn:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

0-1 Charles goes for a duck off 5 balls. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

2-1 off 3 overs. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

12-1 off 5. :blink:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

14-2, Gayle goes!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

This is shaping up to be an absolute disaster of a final.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Has Kulasekara dropped the Ashes?

Unlikely tbf.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

This is crazy. Even if the Windies go at 10 an over, they'd still only be on 128.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Now Samuels is cutting loose!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

21 off the over! About time.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

73-3, Bravo goes!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

87-4, Mendis gets another one. Pollard the man to go.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

87-5, Mendis on a hat-trick!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Samuels is taking Malinga to the cleaners. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

That last six was 108m. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Samuels goes for 78, Dananjaya with the wicket.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

:haha:

Sammy just got clonked on the head by the return throw.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Windies make 137-6 off their 20 overs. Not a bad score from where they were.

[Dennis Bendtner]

That last six was 108m. :haha:

That was incredible. In fact an incredible innings, and he had no support of any substance apart from Bravo. They have him to thank for it being half-competitive.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Yup, he played out of his skin. Again.

[Dennis Bendtner]

Dilshan bowled by Rampaul. :popcorn:

[Dennis Bendtner]

Windies are doing quite a good 'squeeze' job. 39-1 after 8 overs. Sangakkara looking rather dodgy.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

48-2, Sangakkara goes!

[Dennis Bendtner]

Sangakkara gone. Poor innings that. Low score v low score making for a great game to watch.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

51-3, Mathews bowled!

[Dennis Bendtner]

Terrible shot! :popcorn:

[Dennis Bendtner]

Village Sammy bowling well here. Wicket to wicket.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Russell drops the Ashes!

[Dennis Bendtner]

Second time Mahela's been dropped.

Brilliant fielding from Bravo there.

[Dennis Bendtner]

Jayawardene gone!

Ball is slowing up in the pitch. Good point by Nasser, no one bar Samuels has got in on it.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

60-4, Narine gets Mahela!

[Dennis Bendtner]

Run out it looks like. All going wrong for Sri Lanka!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Yup, 61-5!!!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mahela's bulging eye. :sick:

[Dennis Bendtner]

:haha: direct hit now. Perera gone.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

64-6, another run out!!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

69-7! :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a horrific over by Rampaul.

[Dennis Bendtner]

Rampaul letting them back in.

Some thicko at third man goes for a catch on a free hit and lets it go for four...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

That was Samuels.

:rose:

[Dennis Bendtner]

:rose: he was having too good a day.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

96-8!

[Dennis Bendtner]

Narine silences the crowd. Nice cameo though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

100-9. Windies on the verge of victory. :bow:

[Dennis Bendtner]

:haha: Samuels

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Windies win the World T20!!!!

:bow:

[Dennis Bendtner]

Windies win!

Gangnam all round :lol:

[Dennis Bendtner]

:lol: they have a team of lunatics. Manjrekar doing his best to talk to the normal guys.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Windies :bow:
