Excellent innings from Patel but all in vain. Shame to see England out. I thought they may have had a good chance being in the easier group.

SL and WI's through to the semi's, England out.
Tomo will decide who goes through...Pak or India.
Not looking forward to our game against the Aussies, we need to beat them and hope that SA beat India :/

LoL England, so poor these days.

It's been a good year for cricket.
I'm not looking forward to the Ashes (England to win by three matches) but I'm certainly having fun in the meantime.
- England loses the #1 Test ranking after only one year and nobody is surprised
- England loses the T20 champions title after only 6 months and nobody is surprised
- Andrew Strauss retires from professional cricket and everybody is surprised
- The Saffers address their choking problem by choking before they have a chance to choke and nobody is surprised
- Australia bounces back up to #3 in the Test rankings and everybody is surprised
- Australia enters T20 as the underdog at #6, steamrolls five teams in a row to reach the semifinals without any discernible effort and everybody is surprised
- Shane Watson transforms into an unstoppable carnivorous man-beast and people don't know whether to be surprised or not

Pakistan has just beaten us by 32 runs! What a thumping. 
Oh well, at least it means the Saffers are knocked out now. On to the semis..!

Bad toss to lose from India today. They would have very much liked to know exactly what they needed to do before starting to bat but the way they have started, it looks very much like Pakistan will be joining Australia in the semis unless SA crumble. That's doubtful seeing as there's no pressure on them now. I'd like to be proven otherwise but they need some serious partnerships now that Sehwag and Kohli have walked back.

Saffers are 2 for 16! Game on!
India have to stop SA getting 122 to go through.
de Villiers gone, 46-3.
Caporegime
Come on India!
90-3 after 12. India need a mircale now.

Plessis finally out but the damage has been done as far as India are concerned.

4 for 96, India's still in the game but only just!

Well well Paks giving the Aussies a good lil spanking today and now I find SA doing us a huge favour by eliminating India out hahahahahaha.
Couldn't have asked for a better result although I don't really fancy playing SL in the semi's but hopefully we can get past them and get to the final.
Have to say SA have looked absolutely useless in the super 8's, can't really see them winning this sadly.

Too late with the wickets, India! Saffers go through after all.
*edit*
Or do they? It's going to be WI, SL, AU and PAK isn't it?
