I'm amazed at Scotland. Look they still have to bat, but they can surprise The Dutch and us.

West Indies, oh! Dear.

Man, I don't know how many games we have to win to be certain. Looks like all 10. Bloody f**k you ICC. There is no way we should be having a 10 team WC.

One thing noticeable in dutch game was they didn't have lot of lefties . Hasaranga and theekshana ran through their righties . I feel if a leg spinner only bowls googlies his opportunity to take wickets reduces against a left hander

Scotland and the Netherlands are such good teams honestly. Deserve so much more support from the ICC than they get.
Don't forget Ireland. They didn't account well for themselves here, but Tector, Tucker, and Little are serious players for the future.

And they get multiple millions of dollars a year for it.

So therefore nothing to do with the point I was making.

Batting first in Byo seems to be very difficult. Perhaps this goes to show just how good someone like Gumbie is playing. We really have to bowl first against Sri Lanka.

A win here for Scotland doesn't help Zimbabwe at all because if there is any team Scots are threatening it is Zimbabwe. Yesterday with the Netherlands it was a different case as they would have taken off 2 points from SL and threaten SLs position in the table.

This one is a straight forward WI win that we want.
