Let's get started.

Warm up match going well,

Aus 0/2 after 2 balls

Namibia batting first v Sri Lanka.

Consistent wickets seemed to keep Namibia in check for 14-15 overs.

The last 4 however have been a slog fest from Freylinck and Smit. Bowlers bowling pies.

68 from the last 5 overs.

A handy 163/7 should at least make it entertaining.

SL 21/3 panic!

Review, hattrick ball, looks a good shout. does it pitch in line?

pitched outside leg

superb over from Shikongo, double wicket maiden.

SL 84/6

88/8

92/9

Wiese is a great bowler - would have him in my side in an instant

Namibia win

That was a lekker win! Durban boy Robbie Frylinck coming out of retirement to win man of the match.

You have enough Saffers Oom Enz.

Great stuff from Namibia

Great stuff from Namibia.

Of course this means the ICC will reduce the number of teams in the competition to make sure it can never happen again.

2 quick wickets from UAE, and they are back in the hunt.

Ned 76/6 chasing 112 6.5 over left.

it was Jan, not Robbie

UAE doos drops a sitter. If they go on to lose this now he will forever be nicknamed Herschelle.

6 from 6 needed

4 from 4, tun out missed

3/3

Ned win

Aha!

Is SA playing NZ right now?

Can’t find it on sky oddly. There a stream anywhere?

India v Aus in Warmup game on cricinfo - can't see SA/NZ game

https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/icc ... cket-score

NZ all out for 98

SA 30/0, cruising it home.

Will be all over before work starts.

Shame it’s not televised / streamed, unless I missed something obvious

Scotland bowler bowl from a prescribed letter, seem to work.

Also missing it.

Proteas won by 9 wickets. Spinners did the damage.

Vok that was close. Ball hair width!

Justice. Pooran gone. Scots are on their way.

84/8 and need 12/over - Windies are fucked. Well done Scotland!

102/9

Yaaaassssss

Fucking aye.

Go on Scotland, what a terrific result! Really good all round performance, great knock from Munsey, with a couple of hndy wee in ings to support it. Watt the pick of the bowlers and Leask and Wheal also excellent. Good catching and all round support in the field. Need to fire into the next two games now to make sure we get through to the next round. Would be very Scotland to win this game then not qualify...

ICC will definitely be re writing the rules now though.

West Indies have a couple of tricky games to come as well. Ireland definitely capable of beating them. Got no idea what state Zimbabwe are in tbh.

Ha ha ha. C'mon Scotland! This has been a terrific opening to the tournament.

These results just give more and more evidence that the distinction between Full and Associate members is a lot of nonsense. Whole system needs looked at.

Especially in the T20 format.

It won't be though. The ICC are more likely to change it so that these results are less likely.

Zim-Ireland about to start. Have to support our fellow Africans here.

Good start 0/1

I haven't had a chance to make my coffee yet

Zim 37/2 after 5
37/3

That wicket came at just the right time for Ireland 79/4 off 10

Good contest this. If Raza is there at the 20th it'll be a very decent total.

Raza casually going at 200% strike rate.
