Ok, I appreciate not many people here understand cricket, but everyone understands a disaster. Stuart Broad :ENG serves up the single worst spell of bowling in about 150 years of international cricket.  What makes it even worse is that :IND Jasprit Bumrah is a specialist bowler, not a batsman at all.

There were a lot of memes about this here about how Stuart Board hasn't changed in so many years. He conceded 6 sixes in 2007 T20 WC now 35 runs 😂

:PNG Needed 5 runs from last 2 overs with 3 wickets in hand .

 

Over 19 - 1wicket, 2 runs

 

It came to 3 runs required of 6 balls with 2 wickets in hand. 

 

Ayu Kurnia who had bowled just 1 over in the match until then was given the responsibility of the final over. First ball LBW, 2nd ball bowled and Indonesia were into the World Cup.

I think that the T20 format is still not easy enough to understand.

 

Here's my T4x4 proposal:

 

  • Each team bowls 4 sets of 4 overs each.
  • After a team bowls a set, they change roles (like in baseball).
  • A set ends prematurely if the bowling team has two outs.

Debutants :INA beat :ZIM by 15 runs in 1st practice game. They face :ENG in the final practice game before the world cup starts

Thats impressive result for Indonesia. My umpiring mentor who evaluated my first stage comes from Singapore. These countries are having good cricketing imports from Asian subcontinent.

This is an special performance  since the team is 100% Indonesian born coming from multiple youth and senior tournaments.

Led by Wesika the team is brilliant with the ball just needs a decent performance with bat. They had an extremely disciplined bowling with very less extras given .
