At least our NRR won't take a hit from this match.
NRR doesn't matter as long as we win vs UAE
It does matter if it is rained out.

We took it pretty close - it shows there's not too much separating these teams.

We just have to hope the weather doesn't play a part against UAE. If we play the way we did today, against UAE, we'll be fine.

Let's hope we meet again in the final, and in the CWC too for that matter.

No man. We bowled and fielded badly and really bad captaincy. If it’s not turning an inch why persevere with spin?

Why oh why, was Sean bowling that last over...Jarvis bowled a damn good set the over before.


Additionally, why was mid on and mid off back with 2 runs to win, honestly :roll:

They were going for wickets, not runs. Jarvis didn't look like taking a wicket all day.

Will our NRR drop a lot from 0.7 today?

Would have been nice to knock Windies and seal our spot in WC today. Felt the score was good.

Destiny still in our hands though.

The UAE match is basically a grand final. Simple as that.

I'm nervous, but if there was any team to have a knockout game against I'd want it to be UAE. So the team just has to deliver.
