Zimmers having a decent crack, just that last 5-10 overs of bowling will kill them.
Saffers just lucky to be playing a minnow

How good is this Cup so far. Even though the pitches are roads it's good to watch neutral matches on grounds bigger than postage stamps (In Australia). It's delaying the inevitable in regards to the future of ODI's but this game is a cracker to watch.

I'm one of the believers that with free to air TV that beggars can't be choosers. If you get free TV you really cant complain about events/shows that are not being shown.

TV rights is by some Indian mob contracted by the ICC. Their camera work yesterday was woeful at the MCG, Lost all camera feeds bar one at long on and Nine had to throw back to Nicholas and Lee/Healy in a Studio. It also sounded like the commentators were not even at the ground but doing it from the front Bar of the Cricketers Arms on Punt Rd :shock:

So far today I have seen umbrellas, megaphones, drums, instruments of all kinds. So I'm guessing these things are all allowed now in AO :shock:

I hope they are fair and consistent with these new rules :roll:

Really shits me how we can have these different rules, weak as piss. I assume we will let them smoke in the ground as well, it's their culture :?

Aravinda wins for me. Did it against the best tandem team in modern history if not all time.
