Warmup Match 17
Oman vs Pakistan
@Na Maloom Afraad @CerealKiller
Venue: Narendra Modi Stadium

Toss: Oman win the toss and chose to bat


Faheem Ashraf and Sohaib Maqsood caused the Omani batsmen significant problems.



After the openers surprisingly went early to Bilal Khan, Sohaib Maqsood took over and caned the Omani bowlers.

OMA 9/98 (20)
PAK 3/99 (12.2)
Pakistan won by 7 wickets
MOTM: Sohaib Maqsood

[Na Maloom Afraad]

I will be extremely elated if we can, somehow, get a win in the qualifying matches. Beating Sri Lanka or Pakistan was never on the cards, but we really should've at least been more competitive against Namibia.

 

[Yash.]

Go same for both Ireland and Namibia.

Sohaib is the new Shadab

Warmup Match 18
Bangladesh vs England
@Life Warrior @Ashutosh.
Venue: Pune

Toss: Bangladesh won and chose to bat



The middle order wilted at the end against Sam Curran, however not before a charming fifty by Liton Das lit up Pune.



However, there's no denying this was a spinning pitch, and when Jason Roy's Liton-esque knock was ended, Mehedi and the other spinners took control.

BAN 8/150
ENG 6/149
Bangladesh win by 1 run
MOTM: Liton Das

Maybe they didn't deserve them all, but Bangladesh have won 3 of 3 against big teams...

Warmup Match 19
Afghanistan vs Australia
@AsadRM
Venue: Brabourne Stadium

Toss: Afghanistan win and chose to bat



After a disastrous start against the pace battery of Starc and Tye, only a classic slowburn by Mohammad Nabi got the Afghans over 100.



The Aussies were much more restrained than against the Dutch (to be fair this may have been not wanting to be dismissed by Rashid or Mujeeb) but David Warner ensured they had a comfortable victory.

AFG 5/107 (20)
AUS 2/109 (14.5)
Australia win by 8 wickets
MOTM: Mitch Starc

Warmup Match 20
India vs New Zealand
@Parth D @TSPrathik
Venue: Nagpur

Toss: NZ win and choose to bowl



Rohit Sharma looked set for a century until he missed a Southee yorker in the 14th over, but that momentum was kept up by Kohli as the Indians surged to 193.



The Kiwis- particularily openers Finn Allen and Glenn Phillips- put in a brave fight but ultimately the Indians' superior spin bowling sealed the deal.

IND 4/193 (20)
NZL 4/163 (20)
India win by 30 runs
MOTM: Rohit Sharma

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

Confident going into the tournament with this win.
@ddrap14 can you make colour of Indian scorecard out and out blue? This orange blue mix doesnt gel well
