T20 World Cup Day 2 17/10. West Indies v Scotland 1430hrs, Zimbabwe v Ireland 1830 hrs @ Bellerive Oval

[NYRB]

Kyle Mayers has a strike rate of under 100 in T20 career against spin. That should be a hint to Scotland who should bowl next.

 

[NYRB]

Scotland not reading my script - clearly.

 

[Fabab]

20/1

 

[corbies]

People complain about T20Is being meaningless and then watch a warm up game that doesnt even have T20 status over an actual World Cup match with significant ramifications for the teams involved. Telling.

Anyway Scotland a huge chance here imo. Mark Watt to go for his traditional 4 overs 1/23.

 

[NYRB]

West Indies taking a liking for Sharif bowling

 

[Fabab]

53-2 off 6 overs.

 

[corbies]

Mark Watt is such an interesting bowler. Just bowls different variations of darts yet one of my favourites.

 

[Torz]

Pooran has been out of form for like 3 years.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Windies 5/69.

Scotlands game to lose atm.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Another upset is brewing here.

Upset? Too many brainless sloggers

 

[Harlequin Dream]

Scotland revenge game for the farce from 4 years ago.

Scotland ! You want me to watch a bunch of park cricketers? Lol. I got 2/30 on matting on the weekend I should be playing for these bunch of amateurs !

Can't tell if these associate sides like Namibia and Scotland are really improving, or SL and the Windies are just no good. Namibia and Scotland did well last WC as well, hopefully Scotland can stay on with the job

 

[danstar]

Windies and Sri Lanka are just poor sides that deserve to be where they are... on the verge of missing out. Need a total overhaul of there administration of both there countries cricket programs

 

[magpiemaniac44]

This is like a carbon copy of yesterday

Windies could be in strife to make it out of this round, Ireland and Zimbabwe very dangerous sides

 

[Fabab]

7 down hahaha.

 

[magpiemaniac44]

Absolute capitulation

 

[Harlequin Dream]

He could have had 3 shots at it.

 

[danstar]

Thats all she wrote folks, game is well and truly done, incredible upset

Life has a way of bringing Karma back

 

[NYRB]

If West INdies cant beat Scotland, they wont be a shoe-in to beat Ireland or Zimbabwe either.

 

[Harlequin Dream]

Really happy that the young core of Scotland have stood up. Makes me really hopeful for their future.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Missed that wicket.

Fox pulled the old channel switcheroo.

 

[Jamurp]

Fantastic stuff by the Scots! following on from Namibia yesterday, great results.
