.....We beat Pakistan in the 2007 World Cup (ODI), causing their elimination from the competition. You might remember their coach (Bob Woolmer) was found dead in his hotel room in the wake of that game. A murder investigation followed but an open verdict was the eventual conclusion.

I remember it well, that murder investigation stunk to High Heaven to me.

7-4 after 8 overs, erm. Reads more like a soccer score...It could be over before tea with a follow on!

Much better start this innings, 51-0 after 20 overs but you'd be betting on the weather really... Forecast says cloudy tomorrow, light rain Tuesday.

I had a bit on the Draw .If they set out to protect their wicket and forget about runs they might hold on for a draw .

I apologise in advance fer my ignorance on cricket, but does 51-0 after 20 overs mean, 51 runs losing no wicket with 20 balls thrown ?
