anyone have any useful links to watch these matches online?
 
Gayle just gave a master class in batting, 100 from 50 balls. This looks like it could be a great game.
 
A lot of other teams wouldn't have got that total, the 28 extras helped though, but a great entertaining match.
Well done SA.
 
20/20 Cricket live on GEO tv

You can watch matches free on GEO Tv on satelite chanel 815. Only problem i sthat commentary is in Urdu (pakistani)
 
If England could beat the Australians tomorrow that's one of the big guns out already. I suppose the shorter the game, the more likely shocks are to happen.

KP is so frustrating. He batted fantastically today, but his catching/fielding is awful. I suppose some people would call him the flawed genius and the game is definitely richer for characters like him, but he's still frustrating to watch sometimes.
 
Did you enjoy that result as much as me DM.

Really enjoyed the game, excellent cricket all round by Zimbabwe. Hope this rain stops, otherwise might see Scotland pull off another upset. Was very impressed by Bangladesh earlier, they gonna be a hand ful in this tournament. Disappointed that India putting Ghambir in at 3, rest of the team looks good! Lastly England winning, makes things interesting in tommorows game!
 
Australia needed to win and England needed not to lose by a huge margin...guess what happened! I'd be mad if I was Zimbabwean. It's amazing how often things like that happen in sport. I'm not saying it's deliberate, I think it's sub-conscious.

South Africa on Sunday...should be very competitive!
 
India post 141, is this enough. The conditions for batting are very difficult and they are playing 4 seamers and a specialist spinner! Should be interesting, still peed off about Gambhir batting at 3, don't think he'd make my 11, hes more suited to test match stuff!
As for elimination, pakistan need to knock these off in 14 and a half overs for scotland to qualify!
 
They lived up to their expectations, india v pakistan a draw. a banker of a good game. Both teams progress to the super 8's

Hold on, gonna be a bowl out!!!

so here are the 8 super eight teams!

Australia
England
India
Pakistan
New Zealand
Sri Lanka
S Africa
Bangladesh

for me from watching the games, all eight are good, should b e good to watch in 20twenty style!
 
India match was great and a different ending. No comment on Eng V Aussies.

What I found strange was that no matter what result in India match...Pakistan could not be knocked out but they had a great chance to knock out a big name like India, I just think they didnt really perform at the start. Same thing goes for England, so what if they had been bowled out for about 70, they should have swung the bat and tried to get Australia out.
 
its interersting, if we look at the stats, the lowest three totals have been produced on the same pitch,.........Durban, says alot already. Ok were down to the super 8's, this is where the competition begins for me!
