Erasmus is giving hopes to Namebia

 

 

Hopes? Lol they're winning this comfortably. 

[rageaddict]

Ireland v/s Pakistan could be a tight match on a low scoring pitch.

[rageaddict]

Read somewhere that David Wise or his father was born in Namibia which was part of SA before 1992 so he qualified to represent Namibia.

[vvvslaxman]

was that a noball. Kevin o brien probably was slightly outside the 30 yard circle when the ball was delivered

[rageaddict]

50 in 6 overs is very much possible but not easy on this pitch .

Really hoped Ireland would pull through as they have that giant killer mentality in big tournaments. Could have beaten poyzz/kiwis on their days. 

 

Now we have to see Namibia labouring their way to 40-50 run defeats 

Albie Morkel coach of Namebia. If they are part of India   group it will be  Mentor Dhoni vs Coach Albie :)

No way. Pakistan is not a minnow. It's one of the favourites, being playing at home.

Namibia is stronger than Ireland.

Correct. THe opener Green vast amount of first class experience.

I really hope Namibia poaches all the white cricketers from South Africa in the future and turns into a world class team while at the same time thrashing the South African quota XIs into oblivion? Would be a sight to behold... 

 

Whatd ya say @New guy ?

Yes ireland struggle in slow pitches. They are good in flat tracks where KOB can biff it across. The moment there is some spin they struggle.

They're Pakistan. There's no such thing called 'favorite' when it comes to them. When they are destined to **** the bed, they'll **** the bed..

But they have zero experience of playing against the big(ger) boys. You'll realize the importance of it once the tournament starts. 

[neel roy]

Actually David wiese showed what two sixes can do in a tight chase. It just kills the chase and tension. What india need is exactly this. Two three sudden sixes when under pressure killing a match. I guess Pandya just needs to keep his head steady and hit instead of trying to thwack a ball..

[rollingstoned]

Clearly no luck of the Irish there! 

old Wiese has gone up a level after playimg for namibia. Mentioned how he has gained appreciation for the game after playing for an associate.

And lol at them being favorites. Their batting is decent but bowling is horse crap. Worse than Sri Lanka's and probably at BD's level. 

 

Dunno why they get overrated too much every time before a big tournament.

Ireland messed up in the last 6 overs with bat
