[Cricket] 5th ODI England v New Zealand

[jakarta]

Buggering rain, anyone know when will Duckworth Lewis kick in?

 

[pasty]

Play to start in about 10 mins. Still 50 overs.

 

[banjo]

Bloody rain.

 

[pasty]

Oh FFS! Covers back on. Likely to start losing overs now and bloody D/L come into play

 

[Beach Hut]

D/L will now apply

 

[Paxton Dazo]

D/L favours England massively. Expect it'll be something like 250 off 45, 230 off 40.. But, I, like everyone in the world doesn't understand Duckworth Lewis.

 

[jakarta]

Vera shuffles onto the pitch, looks at the Covers and cackles.

England will no doubt be set 200 off 15 overs.....

 

[OzMike]

Pishing hard here at the moment as well, I sympathise, but at least it's 11pm here so not affecting much.

 

[pasty]

Restart at 5.30.

England target 192 in 26 overs @ 7.38 per over

 

[pasty]

WOW! That was some catch

Hales c Williamson b Santner 1

Eng 8/1

 

[Beach Hut]

Jeez Root out now

 

[pasty]

Oh dear

Root st Ronchi b Santner 4

20/2

 

[crookie]

Jesus

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Another game ruined by D/L

 

[vegster]

Santner 2 overs 7 runs for 3 W... get him off now as he won't get those figures again in a hurry.

 

[banjo]

40-4

 

[Hampster Gull]

England to fall short

I meant to say;

england to fall spectacularly short

 

[pasty]

D/L or not, we're doing our level best to screw this up

Stokes c McCullum b Wheeler 17

40/4 from 6.3 overs

 

[crookie]

Such poor game management, got the runs needed for the over in 2 balls, no need to play risky shots like that with 3 down already. Shocking

 

[banjo]

Well that's thats f#cked it then.
