ICC Cricket World Cup ** spoilers ** [14th February – 29th March 2015]

[e36Adz]

102-6 Duminy gone but AB is still there... (EDIT) and he's playing some sublime shots.

 

[Sankari]

7 for 141! 91 runs to find, and the Boers are in trouble. If de Villiers falls, it's all over.

 

[e36Adz]

8 down but AB is still there and still playing as though there is no pressure on him, SA favourites while he is still in. They need 51 runs from 100 balls.

 

[e36Adz]

AB not even taking singles now, he wants all the strike. Next ball BANG 6, thats why!

 

[e36Adz]

AB GONE!!!

Surely Pakistan can't lose from here.

SA need just 32 runs, Pak need 1 wicket...

 

[Sankari]

9 for 201 with 31 runs to find! de Villiers is out!

 

[Sankari]

Tahir is gone, it's all over! The Boers have choked themselves to death yet again, and Pakistan takes a huge win from this highly controversial game.

Amazing scenes!

 

[e36Adz]

We are peaking at the right time... Pakistan to win the world cup, I called it.

Steady on.

 

[pepsilol]

I was impressed with the Safraz guy. Didn't stay in his crease and went on the attack from the beginning. Can hit the call cleanly and looks like a good keeper. Ran himself out stupidly but that's just inexperience so excusable.

 

[GarethSouthpete]

Match fixing, no doubt

 

[Supercow]

The Boers

Please stop that - no one's shortening Pakistan to **** ... because it's offensive, calling us the Boers is not as offensive, but pretty f*king annoying...doubly so because it's also grammatically very incorrect.

 

[Azza]

Well done Daniel Vettori!


This is looking like a short match.

 

[Azza]

Vetorri on a hat-trick...


booooooo doesn't get it.

I'm sorry, I didn't realise. I was under the impression that they adopted this name themselves, and the switch to 'Afrikaaners' was a later development. It's difficult to keep track of this stuff; all white people look the same to me.

doubly so because it's also grammatically very incorrect.

What would be grammatically correct? Boere, perhaps?

Australia looking rickety at 1 for 37...

 

[Sankari]

Shane Watson in sensible batting shocker!

Australia finishes on 9 for 376.

 

[Sankari]

Lankas 2 for 142, travelling well.

 

[Kenai]

Are the scenes amazing yet?

 

[Sankari]

Are the scenes amazing yet?

Mmm, not really. Lankans performing as expected, this is still their game to lose.

8 for 208 with 21 overs remaining...

 

[Sankari]

3 for 189, Lankans need to lift their run rate...
