Post Line-ups Cricket at the 1948 Olympics | Match 12 - What on earth happened back there?!

Woah ! I did think that if everyone contributes equally, we will be able to beat the newly joined WI. We batted quite well and every single player scored runs which helped us in putting a respectable total. Then slowish batting by WI and economical bowling by our bowlers gave us victory.

Hoping we repeat the performance against US. :)

This time exactly half of the match was washed out due to rain, leaving the teams to play out a 25-overs per side contest. The William Evans-led Egypt side acquitted themselves quite well with their aggressive approach to batting.

So did Jack Raphael's Belgium side. Nobody could have foreseen the thrilling finish that was in store during the final over delivered by Richard More which saw Belgium fall just one short of their target. As a result, the two teams played out the first ever tied match in the history of the Olympic Games. However, it was Egypt who progressed to the Second Round as a result of the authorities' decision to award the match to the team that lost fewer wickets on course of their innings. Belgium could consider themselves quite hard done by this time.

Man of the match: Geoffrey MacLaren (Egypt)

What a match ! Wow. We were very good on the field. William Evans led from the front. The captain took on the responsibility well. Scott-Dalgleish did a good job on holding on to his wicket till the end. We did a very good job to get 129 runs in the rain affected match.

I don't have any words for the bowlers. It was a very good effort from our bowlers. Everyone contributed in the team. To hold on to their nerves and bowl a tight over and get wickets was important and we did it. Geoffrey MacLaren did a fine job in picking up 3 important wickets and not giving out any runs. Economy of 3.6 is amazing. Well deserved MOM award. He was well supported by Nicholas Udal. It is an honour to be a part of first ever tied match in the history of the Olympic Games. Overall, a great day for us.

Even Belgium were really good in this match but I would say they were unlucky. Bowlers did a great job for us. It was thrilling match.
 
So we will face Burma in our first match. Even though we're massive favourites, I don't think it'll be such an easy game, since they've got nothing to lose and will play without any fear.
This will be our playing XI

They performed really good in the 1st match.

Both Unchanged. :)
 
We are going unchanged. All the players performed well in the first match. It won't be fair to drop a particular individual.

The Indians were a talented bunch, but had about a snowball's chance in hell of surviving against the best bowling attack in world cricket. The British skipper Johnny Douglas finished with a five-fer himself, as they were bowled out for 110.

Burma showed great character by hanging on to bat for 50 overs, despite being heavily outmatched on paper by the powerful Australasians. Charles Kelleway put in an admirable all-round performance scoring 37 and then claiming 2/22 off 7 overs on his Olympic debut.
