Re: Twenty20 Cricket World Cup Official Thread

You have to remember that twenty20 cricket is not the most skillfull form of cricket, a lot of it is just hit and hope and thats the reason the better teams dont always do well in it. As exciting as the new form of cricket is to the masses test cricket still is and always will be the place where the better cricketers shine.

Re: Twenty20 Cricket World Cup Official Thread

Yeah, but the top teams also need to realise that 20/20 is becoming a legitimate form of competition, and that whole "It's not a skillful form of cricket" argument just can't be accepted anymore. You get paid to represent your country, and as world class athletes in their chosen field, they should be able to adapt to a form of cricket, just like test cricketers had to adapt at the insertion of World Series Cricket, this is another time to adapt. And it's not like the teams haven't had any time to learn how to swing hard, they should be able to swing a bat as hard as they can.

Re: Twenty20 Cricket World Cup Official Thread

To be fair, the 'minnows' go into these sorts of competitions with no fear, but in the end, quality SHOULD shine through, which is why this is such a disaster for the Aussies. In the warm up match against Bangladesh, they hit 220 odd, and could've hit more.

Re: Twenty20 Cricket World Cup Official Thread

England got well and truly hammered against South Africa. I wasn't following the match closely, but I could see it on one of the TVs in the bar I was at.

Quick question... in the super 8 stage of the tournament, does everyone play each other once, and then the top 4 teams go through to the semis?

Re: Twenty20 Cricket World Cup Official Thread

We were totally outplayed from start to finish. I think South Africa will actually win the tournament, but we were woeful.

And yes, there's two groups now, top 2 from each go through to the Semis.

A fantastic bowling performance by England today, lets see how they do against the Windies now, very hot and cold at the moment.

Re: Twenty20 Cricket World Cup Official Thread

Yeah, huge win for England today. KP is so key to England's side I feel.

Ireland were very unlucky. Great performance by them against one of the favourites. We're actually quite a good cricket side for a bunch of amateurs.

Re: Twenty20 Cricket World Cup Official Thread

Yeah I watched the Ireland match aswell, very unlucky not to get anything out of the match. At least they got further than Australia.
