Can anyone explain why it's 6nb for a no ball off a 4? Thought it would be 5 runs unless I'm missing something?

178 off 25 overs, going at over 7s

haha very true, this is an insane onslaught

Previous county record was 38, smashed it. 6 6nb 4 6 4 6nb 4 6nb 1 (Boooo)

And the rest mate they were right cvnts last year. Rishi going for it, obviously next to no chance of actually doing it but I would love it if we beat them LOVE IT

Fair play to them but it's pretty mad surely. Against one of your promotion rivals (and you've already locked up more batting points), just take a win for us completely out the equation

Didn't know forecast but put second SF in Guyana for their wettest month of the year (which India were guaranteed to be in regardless of finishing position in S8). Horrendous planning to have a reserve day for one SF and not the other. Bordering on ridiculous. Naturally the ICC (might as well be BCCI) didn't know who'd win their group and who wouldn't but outside of that the whole tournament so far has been rigged to suit Indian TV money. Didn't even draw the groups they just hand picked them.

Didn't need to open this to see what it was with MLT as the title

Speaking of ICC rigging....

Always funny to see Aus chop it but they've undeniably done us a huge favour. Due to ICC rigging they found themselves in a much harder S8 group for finishing first than second...

Well yes but they didn't throw the game did they? Hazelwood's words about going easy on Scotland aren't so clever now... This would have been the case if they rigged Scotland through then bombed out in the S8 anyway

They could have so easily thrown that game without it even being blatant cheating given how close it was. Aus taking the moral high ground for once, unchartered territory. Also don't see how this actually affected their super 8 demise?

Annoying that Sky haven't done their own commentary for this; having to listen to the international coverage aka India fan TV is tiresome

Not saying the grounds will be empty but surely affected. Obviously they've made the blast clash with Euros rather than their precious hundred

They're already through and their super 8 group spot is confirmed due to being predetermined. Doesn't matter if they finish 1st or 2nd. So in theory there is nothing to stop them losing on purpose, other than personal pride and potential ramifications. If I was an aussie I'd want to chuck the game

Attendances for blast across the country will surely fall off a cliff now due to clashing with the Euros

Dube is stealing a living when you consider some of the players who haven't made the 11. "All-rounder" who can't bat or bowl

The midlands are shockingly underrepresented, why are tinpot NI even considered for getting any games in the first place

Haha at least he's honest enough to admit, I'm all for shithouse rigging to dump your main rivals out the tournament. Beat Scotland but do it my a small enough margin to send them through. Almost certainly whichever side wins the toss in that game, Aus will bat second so they can control the NRR

Going to be close

Don't know why they've done it, looks ridiculous

"Healthy forum for debate and positive discussion". Yeah fvcking right. Who is this shill working for

There is no reforming VAR. People keep wheeling out the tiresome "it's not the system it's the people using it" and "it works well in Europe just not in England". The ridiculously long wait in the conference league final for the offside call where it's 'semi-automated' shows how much of a farce it is. This is all without mentioning how it's ruining the goal experience for match going fans

19:1, what an absolute disaster. Turkeys voting for christmas. Fair play to Wolves
