this is a disgrace, an embarressment
So rugby is the only colonial / garrison sport we are any good at ??
We’ll reserve judgement on the cricket until after Ireland play their first ever cricket match against Pakistan in May.
Kev is taking off here 220+ is still on.
Kevin O’Brien out for 41, 196/6 11 balls left.
Agreed.
Ireland 201/6. 6 balls to go
What was the stat on the Afghans and 200+ scores again?
209/7 Need early wickets big time.
Apparently they’ve only reached 200 runs once in this tournament according to @Your_Mums_Athletic.
Innings over AFG need 210 to win, we need early wickets to stop them IMO.
209 reaches. Oh ye of little faith!!
He’s a journeyman pro in England I think. Or was.
Commentators eye,hopefully im wrong about it getting chased down with 10 overs to spare.
Stirling
Shahzad is carrying a fair bit of condition
I don’t buy into that new world shite mate.
One of the senior managers at work, Indian and a complete cricket tragic said to me today that he thought it very sad that one of Ireland or Afghanistan wouldn’t make it as either of us will be the most interesting team at the WC.
After this I"ll be backing my Afghani friends all the way. Our bowling has been absolutely dire.
What’s a cricket tragic?
Oh for gods sake Geoffrey, are you working from home today or something?
FFS sake
