Namibia is too weak.   Worst among minnows. As bad as Oman level. 

Yup, looks like

This is no fun

Netherlands had the chance to kick these minnows out of the tournament but they threw it away...

Why did Erasmus who conceded only 9 runs bowled only 2 overs. He too has a slingy action and would have contained the run flow.

Because all their bravado is against us. Chewtiya

Namibia is the worst team this competition. Realistically, they were never going to challenge poyzzzz. Dutch should have beaten Pooks but alas. 

 

Anyway, we will get to enjoy them get whacked thrice in Super 8s. 

77/6 we were 

[Gollum]

Good that Pak is through to super 8s. Imagine the meltdown in Azam/Fawad/M/Tariq/Goraya's spaces after each of their losses. Entertainment guaranteed. 

 

Zimbabwe, USA, Netherlands, Nepal types are just fodder in later stages, make the competition boring. 

[Austin 3:!6]

Poys are back. I have a strong feeling we will meet them again in this tournament. 

 

Just hope its not finals as it will be shame to see final get played in SL

[cricketfan28]

They won't make it to semis ...not enough juice.

[rageaddict]

Pakistan can defeat both England as well as SL in the next stage. England is in some bad form these days and Pak-SL matches are always close.

I am going to derive great sadistic pleasure from the Oman-Aus game. 

 

I remember how we got knocked out early in 2007 ODI WC and had to watch Australia's carnage in Super 8s and then KOs. Sem2sem nahi hai but close enough.

Ye saale minnows India ke against he khelte hain

Both matches in Pallekele, ball won't spin much.

It's a good track.  Chasing team will have a massive advantage.

Yeah that's the format. NZ and Pak made some noise about this.

Mostly correct. One each from Oceania, Asia, Africa, Americas (N+S) and Europe (remember not Eng but Great Britain will play). 

 

Also USA will be there, being host country. 

[The Hound]

I thought the PAK ad was bad, this is even worse

Indian batter's can either hit a boundary or play a dot ball, there's no strike rotation ..
