Pakistan could hit a boundary if their lives depended on it. Cost them the match.

For anybody who missed it, this is the highlights of the final over of the India/Bangladesh match: streamable.com/3vfjBangladesh needed 2 runs on the final 3 balls. I'll let you watch and see how they royally fucked that up.

If Bangladesh won that game it would have made that group a lot more interesting.

I'm very happy with our squad, Adam Milne is showing that he's more than just pure pace, his development has been pleasing, also wtf South Africa?

Haven't seen much of him besides highlights but he looks solid. hard to tell too much from t20s though imo. He's played tests too hasn't he? I can't seem to recall ever seeing him play but i think they said he was in the test squad at one point. Yea he has played test matches, his game is geared towards them, but I would like him as a permanent fixture in all formats of the game. Aussie looking strong too though, is Zampa going to play heaps in the future?

Aussie looking strong too though, is Zampa going to play heaps in the future? hard to say with zampa for longer formats. lyon is still the best spinner and is under rated, he should probably have been in this tournament but zampas been great. last night against pakistan we had a better line up but i'd still think we should open with warner and put khawaja at the three. Agreed, Khawaja is best suited at #3 with Warner and Finchy having less pressure and can just come out and slog from ball one. I really like Zampa, big wraps on him, he's still young so he can grow into a solid player. Lyon is still 1st choice no doubt, he knows how to structure a test match well.

Yea, he's also not that kind of player, of course he can play long innings, but he's best suited taking advantage of the fielding restrictions/new ball.

Browntown and I are from Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The start-time for us are 4:00 am for the early games, and 9:00 am for the later ones. Not too bad for the late ones, except on the weekdays when I have morning class.

New Zealand, so we get the worst of the timing when it comes to that part of the world, should have seen me during the Rugby World Cup, camped out on the sofa haha

The Kiwi's are always solid as hell. I'm not shocked by their dominance Guptil is amazing opener. I should have put money on them.

God I can't stand Wasim Akron's commentating. He add nothing to the conversation lol. I loved when he said something like pakistan need 10 runs off 40 deliveries. Read the runs deliveries backwards and never corrected himself. Was a decent game. Pakistan did well to keep up most of it and keep the game exciting. That delivery to smith waaaaaay outside was so strange to watch It's like pulling strings with him. I want to cry in a corner or mute when he's commentating. To bad he can't commentate like the way he could bowl.

Even when I adjust the site to our timezone, it always gives me the wrong times.

Yea I believe he had a couple double centuries for my club, and won player of the year that I was playing, he was awesome to bowl at in the nets (I was a bowler, sucked shit at batting)
