Great for England that we managed to record such an awesome win against NZ, and knock them out in the process. Rare moment to savour in our otherwise reasonably poor recent ODI run

England lost to NZ. Unless i'm missing some sarcasm by you.

Anyway this tournament has been pretty good in terms of being unpredictable seeing as 3 of the most favoured sides (India, Sri Lanka and South Africa) are out. Although some of the matches have been decided by the toss.

Semi finals tomorrow and Saturday while the final is on Monday. Seems like a strange day to put a final of a big tournament on.

England vs Pakistan on Friday.

England will take it.

Oh, and some people I know were saying that Pakistan threw the match against Australia on purpose to see India go out. :ermm:

I meant SA sorry, the result against NZ similarly poor. I hope now that the Aussies go on to batter Pakistan.

England got whipped today as usual. Friggin pathetic.

I see Pakistan beating New Zealand, and then go onto play Australia in the finals. We'll see what happens on Monday.

EDIT: Frank, are you watching the same tournament? Pakistan already played Australia and they lost by two wickets.

I meant in the final, if Pakistan get there. If NZ get there, I hope they beat the Aussies.

Pakistan is going to play New Zealand on a seaming Wanderers pitch according to initial reports and that is bad news for both teams in general and pakistani team in particular. Pakistan are not known for their batsmen performing on seaming wickets. If Pakistan wins the toss they will go for the fielding option rather than batting. They have a good seam attack and hopefully will play the controversial Asif in the match. No matter what he does off the field he is a good bowler able to exploit movement off of the pitch.

If New Zealand wins the toss they will also field first, their seam attack might not be as good as pakistani attack but pakistani batting is going to look hopeless on the green pitch.

In summary, I think that whoever wins the toss will elect to field and will most certainly win the match unless someone plays the knock of his career for the side which loses the toss.

Just my two cents

Australia took it! Very good ending, props to White for letting Watson finish it off. Really was a class ending.

Yeah I agree. The whole match I wanted Watson to be clean bowled but as he got closer to his ton I really wanted him to get it. Good 2 weeks though which produced a few upsets.

My money was on a fully fit NZ team.

      I named Hitler because he is the de facto anti-semite. But you don't have to hate Jews to be a genocidal maniac. In fact, these days, so called semites are the ones acting in ways that would make Hitler proud.

    • Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today

      By zikalify · Posted

      Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today by Paul Hill Apple will begin enforcing the Texas Age Assurance Law (SB 2420) following a recent court ruling that lifted an injunction on SB 2420. Starting June 4 (today), Apple will enforce strict age-verification and parental-consent rules for new Apple accounts created in Texas. This move will affect children under 18 who go to download apps or attempt to make in-app purchases. Apple previously expressed privacy concerns related to this law, but compliance is now mandatory for the company, nevertheless. Apple will use several APIs to follow the law. Principally, the Declared Age Range API will fetch the specific user age bracket (Under 13, 13-15, 16-17, or 18+) and a verification method. The Significant Change API (PermissionKit) will trigger a system dialog for parental consent if an app gets a major update or an age-rating shift. There is also a new property type in StoreKit that allows developers to automatically check when their app’s age rating has changed on a user’s device and then use the Significant Change API to request parental consent. Finally, App Store Server Notifications can be configured to tell developers when a parent revokes consent, blocking app launches. To ensure they are ready for these changes, developers must immediately use Apple’s sandbox testing environment to validate these APIs in their apps. For any developers out there finding this to be inconvenient, get used to it. Other regions, such as Utah, Louisiana, and Brazil, are looking at, or have implemented, similar rules.
