just another disappointing South African outing...way too many runs given up by their bowlers...

they don't even look focused at 100% on their game...there's no fire in their eyes...

probably/most likely their CWC is already over, at least for what concerns any ambition to get a good final placing...

It was played by British officials in Kabul 180 years ago but, unlike India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, it never was played by the normal Afghan population after the British left.   There's a goo

Nice to see Bangladesh claiming a big scalp here. The format is rubbish though with a single round-robin group and only 4 of 10 team advancing. There is going to be a lot of dead rubber matches or cases where one team has nothing to play for.

I agree...they could have easily chosen to keep 12 teams (IRL and ZIM are good enough), with 2 groups of 6 and the top 4 in each group qualifying for the quarterfinals, so to have more decisive matches in the group stage and more knockout matches in the final stage...

but the International cricket Board is really hard to understand most of the times (it's the same with the Olympic participation issues)...:facepalm:

Yes, they don't generally do things that is in the best interest of the sport. Even with this round-robin process they could have at least spiced it up a bit.... say top 2 advance directly to the semis, 3rd-6th place play in the quarter-finals. Or maybe even added in an additional incentive for those at the bottom of the table.... top 8 qualify directly for the next tournament. But they prefer to be able to make things up as they go along so that for the next World Cup they can invite who they want :d

Pakistan :yikes::yikes::yikes:

 

that was unexpected...

 

England bowlers gave up no less than 348 runs (in full 50 overs, with only 8 eliminations) to the Asians and then they couldn't make up for that with the bats in their hands...in fact, they scored only 334 runs in 50 overs (9 eliminations)...

 

therefore, Pakistan win by 14 runs (official score: PAK 348/8 b. ENG 334/9)...:hatoff:

 

now the chances of making the top 4 after the epic fail of 4 years ago are getting slimmer and slimmer for the Host Nation...

Reading your passionate posts here made me watching a match today between our neighbors Pakistan vs England and after 10 minutes my reaction was "oh no thanks, this is not my taste"

 

btw since we almost share the same language with Afghanistan, I can read their websites and Cricket is a huge huge sport there and also in Pakistan. (we even had street celebrations in Afghanistan when they beat Pakistan in a test match before the World Cup) but the biggest sport in two of our biggest neighbor countries almost doesn't even exist in my country. :mumble: not that I'm complaining :d

Not necessarily...You can just create your own version of it and put it in the Olympics, and then lose miserably there.

So where is Argentina? :p

 

Interesting that you ask, literally all the most popular or succesful sports here are the british ones (football, rugby, Polo, field hockey, tennis). Except Cricket.... for some reason I ignore it never took off.

      Update after Matchdays 8 and 9.   Group A:  is almost a lock with 21p, and 7 games 7 wins. Almost impossible for them to not qualify. The battle is in the second place between  (16p) and  (13p).  with 8p is almost out.  and  eliminated.   Group B:  won both of the 2 games so is almost secured with 19p.  is second with 14p, with  (1 more game played) and  with 11p.  is eliminated and  practically too (6p)   Group C:  went 2 out of 2 so they are still first with 16p and one game less than the rest. The battle for second place will be between  14p,  11p and  9p.  eliminated and  (with one game less and 4p) probably too.   Group D: Only 3 for 2 places.  first with 19p has the advantage, but coming close is  with 16p. They played each other in the Matchday 11 of 12. Coming in third behind is  with 11p. ,  and  eliminated.   Group E: Both  and  won both matches so its still the same, Poland first with 24p and Italy second with 21p, which is the best runner-up and also qualifying directly, so is very likely that both teams end up qualifying no matter who finish first and second. , ,  and  eliminated.   Group F: A tie between  18p and  18p. Germany has the goal advantage (+21 to +20), and has to play the three weaker teams, so its more likely to qualify. Coming behind are  with 10p and  with 9p, which are practically eliminated with  and   Group G:  takes the advantage with 12p and one game less.  and  both have 7p, and coming behind are  5p (but one game less) and  with 5p.   Group H:  with the win against  moved to first place with 13p (and one game less), and Turkey stays in second with 11p.  is coming in third with 8p, while  is eliminated and  have 3p and one game less.   Group I: A triple tie between ,  and  with 10p. Belgium have the advantage because they have the best head to head points and one game less. Austria is second in the H2H difference and Denmark is third but with also one game less.  have 6p and  is eliminated.   The next 3 and last matchdays will define the 10 qualified teams and the 8 that will go to the playoffs. Matchdays will be 24-26 September, 28Sep-1Oct and 5-6 October, 2026.
