Re: GLAMMY

Only vaguely Glamorgan related, but Michael Balbirnie's Ireland are well on the way to beating the West Indies and qualifying for the Super 12 phase of the T20 World Cup - the West Indies, winners of the tournament quite recently, will fail to make it through.

If Scotland can beat Zimbabwe later this morning, they'll qualify as well.

Watched the end of the cricket, amazing game - the decisions of umpire Kohli made the difference in the end.

Decided to stay with this rather than switching to the derby yesterday (which sadly says it all about my enthusiasm for the city atm). Last over was madness.

That rule where you can run byes after someone’s been bowled off a free hit doesn’t seem fair.

I can’t remember who did it a couple of years back. It might have been Buttler but whoever it was deliberately stood on his stumps on a free hit to mess up the bowlers length that really did seem unfair.

And this morning De Kock took his glove off to try and throw down the stumps and the ball bounced off him onto his discarded glove and 5 penalty runs plus an extra ball was the outcome.

It isn’t. The fact they could run 3 after being ‘bowled’ is nonsense. That plus I don’t recall ever seeing an umpire visibly intimidated by a player before, and I genuinely believe that happened yesterday with the no-ball.

Re: GLAMMY

England in a real struggle with Ireland at the moment. I’d say the Irish are.favourites.

Re: GLAMMY

Ireland win by Duckworth Lewis method, fully deserved from what I saw.

Re: GLAMMY

Shame for Ireland that the victory comes following a rain delay like that. Well deserved, although I do think had it gone the distance England would have just pipped it at the death with their line up, even after very much underperforming.

Good luck to them. Hoping we target a solid replacement for Hogan in the off season now.

Fantastic victory for Zimbabwe against Pakistan in the WC earlier today as well in a thriller.

Really, I gave up on it after the Zimbabwe innings
