Thread: Cricket scores around the world

I've only looked at sky sports cricket scores twice, and both times had the black screen of death at the top. Won't be looking again during the England & Wales innings.

Aussies steadied at 1/125 off 20 overs. Still open.

"Black screen of death"?

I'm enjoying this but sadly have to attend an early soiree.

Hopefully England will set a stiff target and save demolishing the bacon sarnies until after I slip away into the night...

What an extraordinary shot for that 6.

220-2 off 36.

You made me go back to Sky Sports Cricket updates, for the third time today, for a screenshot to show you... Here:



Are you satisfied???

And now the lesser spotted Buttler reverse sweep for 4.

A decent total by England vs the in-fighting notoriously dishonest bastards. Over 300 by the cheating bastards vs the cheating bastards.

Both games look to be in the balance at the halfway point.

Aussies won easily.

Good.

Let's hope the Dutch get something out of the last game, so the cheating bastards get fuk all out of this competition.

It's exciting but I don't use Sky Sports for scores on anything.

Rob Key blathering on Sky is exactly why we need drastic changes in English cricket.

I suppose them savaging the squads is an attempt at diverting attention from their own inadequacies.

Just six players from England's ODI World Cup have kept their places in a new-look squad for their white-ball tour of West Indies.

The tour, which includes a three-match ODI series (starting December 3) and a five-match T20 series (beginning December 12), will be England's first action since their unimpressive World Cup title defence in India.

Jonny Bairstow, Joe Root and Mark Wood have been rested ahead of January's Test series in India and Test captain Ben Stokes is heading straight for an operation on his long-term knee injury.

But the omissions of Dawid Malan, Moeen Ali and Chris Woakes from the 50-over squad may prove to be more final.

ODI squad: Jos Buttler (captain), Rehan Ahmed, Gus Atkinson, Harry Brook, Brydon Carse, Zak Crawley, Sam Curran, Ben Duckett, Tom Hartley, Will Jacks, Liam Livingstone, Ollie Pope, Phil Salt, Josh Tongue, John Turner.

T20I squad: Jos Buttler (captain), Rehan Ahmed, Moeen Ali, Gus Atkinson, Harry Brook, Sam Curran, Ben Duckett, Will Jacks, Liam Livingstone, Tymal Mills, Adil Rashid, Phil Salt, Josh Tongue, Reece Topley, John Turner, Chris Woakes.

India 84/1 off 10.

Funny old game innit.

England were the only team to get Kohli for a duck and their batsmen crumbled in response.

And the bacon sarnies got him out for 16 and did the same.

Everyone else has suffered, and it's already looking like NZ have real problem.

327-2 with six overs to go; it's obviously a big total, but how big will it be?

397.

Too big for NZ against the likes of Bumrah at 'The Wank', as I believe the hardcore refer to it.

India made 397, Kiwis need 398.

2/93.

Not good.

141-2 after 22 overs. Williamson going well, but probably needs the best innings of his life, with amply support, to knock these runs off.

There in the game, but a high run rate required against a very good bowling attack.

Williamson out on 69.

NZ 3/220

4/220

India win in the 48th over with 70 runs to spare.

Easily.

Good effort really.

Today should be fun.

The jaapies crushed the convicts in October but the convicts have played their way into some decent form and the jaapies are clearly capable of the odd wobble.

Yes, Australia potentially vs the two sides that thrashed them at the start of the tournament.

Can SA win batting second?

This is one pf the rare occasions that I'll be rooting for the Convicts...

Kiwis did pretty well, but needed a century+ from Williamson, imho.
