Its a massacre, well you know what I mean

Australia do need to close it off to maximise their chances for a big net run rate boost. Bangladesh are proud and stubborn so won't give in easily. 54/5 after 9 shows they have steadied a bit.

9 wickets down and the last batsman is called Sorryful Islam.

[Smithydog]

73 all out. Now over to the Australians who need to get that total as quickly as possible for the biggest gain.

[Smithydog]

Looks like Finch is going for it. Bit of a hit and miss though at the moment!

Gummy, Rookiescot and BigHewer. Could it be India packing their bags early should Afghanistan fire?

No problem BH. I'm in quite the mood as my fellas need 8 runs off 86  balls.

Nice boost to the NRR for the Aussies there, how much ground will they make up?

Windies to beat Sri Lanka next…

[Smithydog]

Aussies into second place in Group 1 after a significant run rate boost. It is goodbye to Bangladesh as they become the first team to complete their Super 12 fixtures.

Best wishes to the team for their future games.

Great job by the Aussies. Zampa with 5 wickets and Finch 40 runs smashed the Bangladesh team. The bowlers from Australia were impressive in their display.

Actually still think the Windies will prevail. But of course I could be wrong.

Absolutely. No matter which team is hosting or who is in good or bad form, the Ashes are the Wimbledon of the test cricket world. Lets the games begin and the beer betting continue.

Looks like bets off for today. Can't see Scotland or Namibia pulling off successful great acts of defiance tonight. Unless you disagree BH India and NZ will prevail.

Yeah, the beer deficit remains on hold tonight too Mick. Hoping at least the games will be competitive.

Agreed. But even if the Kiwis and Indians crack out easy wins some close contests are coming soon.
