Group A World Cup

[Kram81]

Afghanistan 2 for 50, batting is their weaker disciplne so hopefully the can muster some sort of respectable total here for the Sri Lankans to chase.

Afghanistan with a decent start. The opener Ahmadi keeps disappointing me...he keeps getting starts and looking good before getting himself out.

 

[Kram81]

2 for 116 after surviving a very close LBW review (really should have been given out on field initially for mine..)

Also see that another 1 handed shirt catch in the crowd has been taken earlier!

175 for 6. Pretty frustrating watching Afghanistan throw away their good platform.

They don't have a really top notch batting line up afghanistan. Their bowling is surperb though

 

[Kram81]

Probably looking at something around 240 here.

 

[Kram81]

All out for 233 in the last over, fair effort from Afghanistan.

 

[Kram81]

Wow, Sri Lanka off to a wobbly start to be 2 for 2. Sangakarra lucky to not get run out as well.

 

[Kram81]

And Hassan knocks over Sangakarra!! 3 for 18, a worrying position now for Sri Lanka..

 

[Kram81]

Oh boy wowee.. another wicket Sri Lanka on the ropes now at 4 for 51.

 

[Kram81]

Really need to somehow pinch another wicket here Afghanistan, these 2 looking comfortable.

4 for 99.

 

[Kram81]

Game back on after SL were looking pretty safe at one stage, wickets down and 44 off 35 needed.

 

[SriLanka]

i was on the edge of my seat watching that game if we lost would have looked very bad.

Thanks a massive thunderstorm prevented me from watching and therefore i couldn't post up anything.

Scotland are currently 1/45

 

[Ljp86]

Scotland fell well short in the end with England taking out an easy win by 119 runs. They also recovered a fair portion of their net run rate too in their victory.

The next game sees Scotland in action again, this time against Afghanistan on Thursday in Dunedin. You've have to say the loser of this match will likely finish on the bottom of the group.
