as expected, :AFG didn't have the fire inside, but still :RSA did show how difficult is for them chasing other teams' scores

 

game #42, :RSA beat :AFG by 5 wickets

 

:AFG posted a not so amazing 244/all out in 50 overs, then it took good 47.3 overs to :RSA to overtake that score with 247/5 (despite never being in danger of not completing the chase, tbh)

so, after Today's match basically we know the 4 teams qualified to the knockout stage, as :PAK would need more than a miracle to overtake :NZL as written in the previous post: :IND are safe in 1st place, no matter how the last match goes; :RSA are also safe in 2nd place; :AUS are the favourites to keep the 3rd spot, but they have to avoid a bad loss Tomorrow vs :BAN to seal the deal; :NZL almost surely will be 4th 

 

 

Tomorrow, game #43 is scheduled between :AUS and :BAN at 6 a.m. CET in Pune, meanwhile game #44 features :PAK and :ENG at 9.30 a.m. CET in Kolkata

 

those 2 matches will mathematically put the last nails on the coffin of the round robin for what concerns the top of the standings and will finally determine the semifinals' matchups

I guess no big surprises, except for England having a terrible tournament.

And of course West Indies not participating.

Plus Afghanistan's strong performance.

well underway right now...

 

Semifinal #1, :IND vs :NZL in Mumbai

 

:IND won the toss and choose to bat

 

so far they're really batting hard, their score is 197/1 after 28 overs (RR: 7.04)

 

and they're slowing down in the last few overs, they started so strong that they completed the 1st power play with a RR of almost 9 :yikes:

 

tbh, I expected a (lot) better bowling from the :NZL team, if :IND can keep this pace until the end of the 1st inning, :NZL will have absolutely no chance in their offensive stint :facepalm:

1st inning completed, :IND posted 397/4 in 50 overs

 

now it's :NZL turn to try and overcome that very impressive score of the Home Nation

 

and they started with 2 "Fours" off Bumrah in the first 4 deliveries...not bad!

as expected, :NZL could do nothing against the mighty Indian bowlers (Shami was totally dominating the game, he recorded 7 wickets :yikes:)...

 

actually, they were very good to score 327 runs, but clearly it wasn't enough

 

in this game, moreover, an amazing and unforgettable milestone was set by Virat Kohli, who scored his 50th "century" (117 runs from 113 balls) and now he's the man with the most centuries in ODI matches in the history of the game, overtaking in this special ranking the great Sachin Tendulkar (and he did it at Tendulkar's sport home, at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai...poetry is not dead, after all)

 

Semifinal #1, :IND beat :NZL by 70 runs

 

as written earlier, :IND posted a 397/4 in 50 overs, :NZL could only answer with 327/all out in 48.5 overs, so :IND advance to the big Final

Tomorrow, it's time for the Semifinal #2, :RSA vs :AUS at 9.30 a.m. CET in Kolkata

 

the big Final, instead, is scheduled for Sunday in Ahmedabad

:RSA won the toss and chose to bat (which is the most obvious choice of the entire CWC)

 

but nothing went according to plan for them, as :AUS bowlers dominated the game and didn't let :RSA any chance to post a decent score

 

:RSA completed their offensive inning with just a miserable 212/all out in 49.4 overs :facepalm:

 

I don't see how they will be capable to defend that...

 

they need more than a miracle (which actually already happened in the past, but they were on the wrong side :cry:)

    • I love that it is more straightforward in relation to the number of quotas and does not allow possible problems as it was in Tokyo and Paris.
    • I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines. It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.   So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.
    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,
