T20 cricket world cup '22

[SpookyFrank]

That was coming, they'd beaten Butler's bat enough times already.

 

[WhyLikeThis]

Oh dear.

 

[tommers]

Uh oh.

 

[SpookyFrank]

Trying to put the bowlers on defensive and pressure the field.

Make them bowl out their best bowlers early maybe.

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

I'm calling another 10 wicket win. What a shit final.

God 'Umpire's call' is absurd

That was out even to the naked eye

It must be hard going through life this joyless.

 

[Petcha]

It must be hard going through life this joyless.

Yes, yes it is.

I take it you agree with 'Umpire's call'? It's so fucking stupid, as Warne used to say 'your're either out or you're not'

 

[The Octagon]

Run a ball needed, one of the remaining 7 batters to hit a few big ones and this will be a lot more relaxing.

 

[Idaho]

Yes, yes it is.

I take it you agree with 'Umpire's call'? It's so fucking stupid, as Warne used to say 'your're either out or you're not'

I don't mind umpires call.

 

[Idaho]

Naseem Shah is a fantastic bowler. Obvious comment I know.

 

[WhyLikeThis]

I’m patiently waiting for Moeen to come in and save the day.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Whatever happens here, Pakistan are fantastic to watch in the field.

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

Yes, yes it is.

I take it you agree with 'Umpire's call'? It's so fucking stupid, as Warne used to say 'your're either out or you're not'

I don't mind umpires call.

I don't mind acknowledging that the technology is not always 100% accurate and shouldn't be treated as such.

 

[Petcha]

Stokes has pulled away twice now because of the music. I know, I'm joyless.

 

[WhyLikeThis]

Stokes & Moeen

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

Stokes has pulled away twice now because of the music. I know, I'm joyless.

Nah that one you can have, the "entertainment" should definitely not get in the way of the sport!

 

[Steel Icarus]

Getting a bit fruity

 

[The Octagon]

Got bogged down there with Brook, need someone to take these bowlers on

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

Run rate really has slowed, from a run a ball to over 8. One big over wins this for England but hard to see where it comes from. Tense...

 

[WhyLikeThis]

Not a bad match so far.

 

[WhyLikeThis]

That’s more like it

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Lucky England here. How many false shots has Stokes played? Tough on Afridi and Pakistan.

 

[The Octagon]

Going for it now, wickets in hand

 

[planetgeli]

I think Shaheen Shah Afridi just turned the game in a way he couldn't have imagined.

 

[Idaho]

Come on Mo. Pakistan lost the grip they had.

 

[Steel Icarus]

Don't really watch cricket but every time I do Ben Stokes seems to turn into a superhero

 

[planetgeli]

And that should be that.

 

[Petcha]

So Harry Brook has inadvertently won the World Cup for England

 

[The Octagon]

Come on!

 

[Petcha]

Don't really watch cricket but every time I do Ben Stokes seems to turn into a superhero

He does seem to know how to get headlines. He's been a bit pants otherwise in recent times in white ball cricket anyway. But fate seems to just choose these occasions.

 

[planetgeli]

Haha Stokes so obviously wants 50.
