Obviously I didn’t see our bowling, but certainly their opening pair are finding a good line and length

Yeah its a cautious start but they are bowling well

 

[Mudball]

Not scoring off the first 2 overs is just making it harder.

I think the Memo meant for the Ashes team seems to have reached the U19s..

 

[Arthur Wedge]

Think that should be it - got a bit of momentum going but losing Mayes , Dawkins and Rew in quick succession is a massive blow

 

[Arthur Wedge]

Well was a decent effort at the end , some quality on both sides

Was this being televised? I followed it a bit on Cricinfo. Given the no of 6s, was this just a flat track

Was on Sky

India had the stand out batsmen Suryavanshi , the lad that’s been playing Ipl and is only 14

Hit a stunning 175

Pretty close today in the opening T20 WC game, there was a small part of me that wanted too see a 6 off the last ball!

Missed it, but heard it was good. Also Yanks gave India some jitters, so did the Dutch to Pak.
Minnows matches can be fun ..

Ireland would have won if they hadn't had a nightmare in the field

 

[Neilds]

Maybe just me... dont seem to have much interest in the WC. Premier league is getting more exciting as the race to the finish.

In other news, son's school is a doing a 'cricket tour of Sri Lanka'.. more than him, i am tempted to go. I never got such opportunities, neither did my parents have the money to send me.

Just catching my first action of the T20 WC, and not sure I’ll be watching an awful lot more.

Nothing to do with the cricket itself, but the buffoon stadium announcers who are bellowing into their microphones non-stop. It’s absolutely unbearable.

My better half was saying exactly the same thing. What are they on ,it was cringing.
As was our batting and bowling today .
