Precambrian Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 Daniel Brettig @danbrettig So the World Cup next year will have joint winners in the event of a tie or a no result. I'm sorry but I can't agree with that... #cricket Personally find it ridiculous as well. No reserve day? No super over?
tweaker Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 The world cup should have a winner,joint winner does not sound good
bowl_out Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 If there are thunderstorms for a week in Australia / NZ in the last week of Mar, then there would be 4 joint winners, if no semis are played?
Sachin=GOD Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 The ICC would have to be completely out of its mind to do this.
bowl_out Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 ICC isn't learning.. We already had one bad experience with the 2007 WC Final... A 38 over match that was further reduced to some 20-odd overs.... Hope we don't have another this time around
bowl_out Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 Super over isn't a great idea, particularly for a WC.... The winner of the biggest ICC tournament played over 2 months decided by 1 over that a team plays... not good.. In the event of a tie, I don't mind the concept of a joint winner, but not when it is washed out....
Pagalpanti Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 The alternative isn't good either is it? You'd not want a world cup winner to be decided in a 1 over game.. Even the CT final kind of lost its significance when it became a t20. so a superover would just be farcical. In case of tie they could add certain constraints like team which has lost less no. of wickets to get the same score, or more boundaries/less dot balls.
Pakistan Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 Has everyone forgot the Champions Trophy Sri Lanka and India shared year ago?
Lord Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 Has everyone forgot the Champions Trophy Sri Lanka and India shared year ago? It was shared after even the reserve day was washed out.Here there is no reserve day at all
Trichromatic Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 Reserve days were removed from league matches of earlier world cups because broadcasters didn't want so. Still we had reserved day for SF and finals. What happened this time? Is is same reason? ODI games shouldn't be reduced to less than 40 overs and super over is still better than having joint winners.
sourab10forever Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 Super over cannot decide the world cup winner. must have a reserve day.
sourab10forever Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 Just imagine ....play for 2 long months and practice for 5to6 months and finally u dont get a winner.
Trichromatic Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 Super over cannot decide the world cup winner. must have a reserve day. Reserve day should be only for rain affected games.
Desi Cartman Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 WC hosted by Australia and weird rules, reminds me of the Eng vs SAF semi final
Crookbond Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 Has everyone forgot the Champions Trophy Sri Lanka and India shared year ago? 2002 as 12 years ago.
