how u reckon the USA get on tomoz against new zealand???

[Kev the Ape]

USA in the icc championship is this a joke do they play the good old game of baseball and nfl of course they do!! so when new zealand miss the ball tommorow will they go strike 1. and when USA hit a six what they going to say a home run?

watch it on sky sports extra for some fun entertainment.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

i didnt think they were that bad?

 

[CAFC Matt]

What are you all on about

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

[Kev the Ape]

The USA are the second best side in America after Canada

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

must have been canada!

 

[Kev the Ape]

How do teams qualify for the ICC champions trophy? I think Ireland should play because they have a good one day side, beating Surrey, West Indies, Scotland and Holland twice this year

 

[Kev the Ape]

yeh john not like USA who only play baseball and nfl they have never heard of cricket!!! ireland would be a great match against the new zealand and the aussies.

USA have a lot of old West Indians in their team... Including the VERY hard hitting Clayton Lambert... Although he's a bit old now (42)!

Sept. 8, 2004

Team USA beat Zimbabwe by 4 wickets in their second practice game in preparation for the ICC Champions Trophy.

Zimbabwe who batted first scored a imposing 272 for 4 in their 50 overs only to find Team USA overtaking the target in the last over.

Nasir Islam with 3 wickets for 48 runs was the most successful USA bowler.

USA finished with 273 for 6 in 49.4 overs.

Batting mainstay, Steve Massiah scored a match wining 142 not out while Rohan Alexander (42) and Nasir Islam (30 not out) lent him good support.

Clayton Lambert!!

I think there could be some serious upsets in this tournament as the weather could reduce some games to slogs over not many overs.

Did I also hear that games will start at 10.15??!! If that's the case then winning the toss and fielding will be a massive advantage. It's September guys, there's dew in the mornings and that will mean pitches are gonna be pretty damn lively that early in the morning.

When there are some big team skittled out early batting first, just remember where you heard it first.

Might be worth pointing out that the first ever cricket Test match was played between USA and Canada. Like Scotland and England in football they may have been the first but other nations have overtaken them now.

 

[Trigger]

NZ 25/1 from 6 overs against USA or West Indies B, whatever they are

New Zealand won by 210 runs.
