Apparently we are still in 1992. Well, you got me there - Whitney's I Will Always Love You has never left my heavy rotation. Or Sir Mixalots Baby Got Back - but I save that for when I have some hos around for a swim.
Oh, cricket. Indian weakness is not making hay while the sun shines. Its like a masochistic addiction to keeping the worms close when they chase. Still, such conservatism may not be a bad thing in tricky conditions against lineups heavy on power hitters. I have no idea who will win this matchup. Its not black or white. Probably the end of the road for WI.

Another 50 plus for the Captain and legend that is MSD.
old school from dhoni. finishes with the second highest SR and second highest score.
78% roi on the runs total, happy with that so cmon windies, chase that total down
windies defo the value here. but ill wait for fayle to go before backing them.
highest run chase in odi at old trafford is 286/4 so this could be very close

I see it the other way India are reasonably priced now now and there will be more value if Windies make a brisk start.
I think India has enough. But they are defending a smallish target and if one of them gets going...
I'm not going to back India and see someone smash it around. Not at these odds.

I layed India at 1.51 at change of innings for 0.5k red and the drift has done me good.
West Indies first ten over in the WC
71 for 2 chasing a small Pakistan total
54 for 2 chasing Australia's 288
41 for 1 batting first against England, went on to get 212 all out and lost
32 for 1 batting first against Bangladesh, went on to get 321 for 8 but lost
59 for 2 chasing New Zealand's 291 for 8 on this ground, lost in the 49th over in a Brathwaite inspired thriller

I want a quick payoff, dont want to wait for spin.
DT you usually disappear around this time, are you not at work today?
Should get a good start or face the spin test with wickets in hand, can score at the back end also.
So iv'e greened up, cant know what happens with this opening duo....

have you guys read about pakistan's similarities to the world cup 92 campaign? on cricinfo?
should have left that one as the previous,only one ball left in the over, not clever that..
They showed a graphic on Pakistan's spookily similar progress in 1992 to that in 2019 during their match 
Indeed, match a match of it, get India's price back up .....
they will be looking at 85 from the last 10 id say, so will need wickets in hand..looks decidedly difficult
Yes, but stand by for another pyrotechnics display from Big Carlos
Maybe he'll tell about his hobby of painting empty wine crates in to buses, complete with smiling passengers 
GGGGGGGGGGGGSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
just glad im getting paid, didnt buy into this chase.
Just realised that the scores were identical at the end of each of the first four overs.
Wouldn't it be spooky if they were also the same at the end of the LAST four overs

When you combine that possibility with the spookiness of the symmetry of Pakistan's 1992 and 2019 WC campaigns, it gets really spooky 
We also had a jonty style run out yesterday of a player the forum thought had great similarities with inzi.
With South Africa out im rooting for Pakistan to win.
Where are the 'Dhoni is wasting deliveries' and 'they are 30 runs short' cheerleaders now?
I was one of them DT and if he had played quicker sooner I would have a green 3X bigger than I do

Bonus runs from Ambris, now we arrive at the partnership that can put life back into game

Looking like turning in to a limp effort from the Windies 
India doing just enough lately
Hopefully they don't produce their best against the Aussies in the final

If these two play sensibly and are still together at the end of thirty overs, it could become an interesting market.
India only scored 38 in overs 31 to 40.

How are England going to defeat this lot?
I reckon they have to use their natural game now. Play fearless cricket.
At least Shimron showing he cares with that walk off.
All England have to do is win the toss, we're back to the pattern of this World Cup where the team batting first wins 
England will require to display their famous bulldog spirt if they are to defeat India, get Stokes up early to take a giant dump on the pitch
The way it is going England could be out of it!
Lose to India on Sunday and Paks beat Afghans and we shall be hoing Pakistan will be looking for payday against Bangladesh!

Eng very much dependant on Pak if they lose against India.
SL's chances almost non-existent. They have tought games ahead and need at least 2 wins out of 3.
Pak Bangla might be playing for a place in the semi. They will already know Eng's points by then. Pakistan might well be in a position where they get through on run rate if they don't lose heavily to bangla.

Can't see 10 points being enough now sadly
Think India beat us on Sunday and we might well beat NZ but its pretty much redundant anyway

For 10 to be enough they need Bangladesh to beat Pak. I don't see that happening in a knockout game to be honest. Pak a different team when it matters.
Bonkers that its still in Englands hands though 
Win last 2 and their through
Win last 2 and their through
Who knows India gets ordered by their government to lose to either Eng or Bangla so that pakistan gets eliminated. I'm not ruling that out.
Don't rule out the rain coming to England's emotional rescue.
Could also have a re-enactment of the Free George Davis campaign forcing an abandonment.
Match against India rained off, one point collected, then do the bizzo up in Durham

They would still need Bangla to beat Pakistan. Otherwise it comes down to run rate. Eng way ahead on that but Pak play Afg next and could reduce the adv.
