Women's T20 Word Cup 2020

[Stutter]

I like the composition & attitude of this team. The shedding of the old warhorses was a good move overall. 

I don't recall seeing Radha Yadav, but along with Poonam, Rajeshwari & Deepti Sharma, this spin team is a formidable one. They just need a bit more discipline and can complement the batting power quite well.  Today's batting was a bit off though.

10 runs from the last 3 balls. forces fielding changes.

[Stan AF]

18 from this over. 16 off the last 6 needed.

[Stutter]

Intelligent batting by Kerr! 

[Stan AF]

India women win.

Choke is on the cards, most likely in the finals

Choking has been a problem with Women’s team as well. Hoping it doesn’t happen this time.

If we lose to Aus it wont be a choke

True, as in choke from winning position a la previous WC F against Eng.

 

But if we have to face Aus/Eng in KO we start as underdogs. Not only are those teams better (maybe just slightly), they also have the winning habit. I wouldn't be too harsh on the ladies if we lose, if we win great. Not comparable to men methinks. 

[Gollum]

Lot of assistance for spinners, that gives me hope. 

[Stan AF]

That was a good juggling catch from Muneeba.

The NZ player Kerr actually figured it out later in the innings. She started hitting behind square using the slowness of the delivery. Commies actually started praising her and said this is something that other teams should emulate.

[Stan AF]

England losing wickets like pennies.

[Stan AF]

Pakistan need 159 to win. Sounds highly improbable if i'm to believe the commies talking.

See we beat Aus in the opening games

 

While i am not saying we will be favourites, we should not be seen as underdogs either.

 

Mostly i suspect it will be england v aus semi.

 

 

[CoverDrive]

Australia and England look strong due to the depth they have. They have some very strong batting lineups and good pace attacks. As always they will be favorites especially Aussies.

 

India has a good batting line up and we are in semis without our best two batters doing much. Shikha Pandey has been quite good and second pacer is important and there will be matches where spin may not be very effective.

 

South AFrica look very strong and have a good pace lineup.

 

In general all teams have improved. Even Thailand the weakest team is not getting completely blown out. Pakistan and Bangladesh  seems much better than before in terms of skills.

[Stan AF]

Eng 51/2 (8.5) vs West Indies

[Stan AF]

NZ chasing 156 are now 32/1(5.2) against Australia. Winner will goto the semi's. Australia have always made it to the semi's of this event.
