The Silver Fern

So NZ v Pak first game of S8 in Colombo? Looks like we have to navigate Sri Lankan pitches for the whole of next round

@Gunner agree its the type of tournament you need confidence in depth

Look at us versus SA and Aus versus Sri Lanka, both good starts, but then couldn't maintain the momentum to be competitive on these pitches

And that’s game, Sri Lanka win

Probably lost their way after a good start and ultimately 181 not looking like enough. Sri Lanka cruising at 169/2 with three overs remaining

Australia not going out without a fight Head and marsh killing this bowling attack

Sri Lanka win toss and bowl first. Squeaky bum time for Aus today

On the Breakdown they effectively said it was JJ just a matter of time. Goldie: 10-14 days and it’ll be announced.

Also NZR looking at where they can fit Shag in upon his return. So that could be at Super, not necessarily the ABs

this was one of the rumours I heard. Shag, JJ and McCaw. as a trio

McCaw as cultural commissar and loose forward dark arts coach?

technical assistant, to be clear heard many rumours..this was just one of them, so i dont give this one much weight, but found it interesting that shag and jj getting mentioned together adds a bit of flavour to it

Hiding complete well done South Africa

6 runs to go in 16th over smashing almost complete

After 15 overs SA 148/3 just under run a ball, nz still need a few wickets to stay in this

Mitch great catch second wicket down but South Africa still coasting

Yeah Italy look likely just no luck

Power play over and South Africa in charge 83/1

Duffy getting spanked

@Bones said in T20 World Cup:

Ok I'll try popping out for ten minutes

If you stepping out brought on that wicket, time for a drink

Lachy gets the breakthrough

Nz bowling not great either, Markram feasting

Saffas off to a great start going to need wickets

TMO calls forward Holly just agrees
