Group D (England, Ireland, West Indies) - 10th Match Ireland v England

Still no update..

 

[King Pietersen]

Looking like they'll get back out, and it'll be at best 8 overs I'd have thought. Be pretty annoyed if we lose this one. I don't think 43/0 after 5 is a fair comparison to chasing 191.

 

[Cricketman]

So whats the word?

I still think it's the 43 off 5 overs deal. Not sure.

 

[WestIndian]

I wonder why Colly and company look so tense compare to our guys.

 

[Cricketman]

Because the West Indians...are West Indians. :cool:

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

westindies to win surely

 

[Params7]

30 of 22 balls to win

 

[Dabi]

You said it favoured the bowling side!

MUFC1987 added 0 Minutes and 32 Seconds later...



Yeah, before T20 and before Powerplay overs. Hence the problems.

Yeah I meant if it was a 20 over game, the batting team being 43/0 in 5 overs, chasing 191, it would favor the bowling side. Yet via D/L WI would win!

 

[Dare]

Bumble is a genius.

 

[Dabi]

Yeah, well take it up with Frank Duckworth and Anthony Lewis aka Duckworth-Lewis method or D/L method, its been around for sometime now!

As MUFC stated, the problem is tht D/L hasn't been revised for twenty overs cricket.

 

[MUFC1987]

Yeah I meant if it was a 20 over game, the batting team being 43/0 in 5 overs, chasing 191, it would favor the bowling side. Yet via D/L WI would win!

No wonder I didn't understand that.

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

Great over under pressure..

 

[WestIndian]

Bumble is a genius.

Yeah and when he describes Gayle's bat he makes it sound illegal and a weapon of mass destruction

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

What a shot.. Unfair to england..

 

[Dare]

No need to play a shot like that. He just got a 6 and should just rotate the strike to Shiv to force England to alter their field.
