i was gonna mention that . . . . . . then i thought of trott, pietersen, morgan, prior etc etc . . . . .
amazing performance by the irish (ish ) though, especially when you consider that at one stage they were 111-5
that was some innings from o'brien

They're listing it now. 0.53% picked Ireland, 172 out of about 32,366.
A different update, apparently the Banglas are bad losers they attacked the West Indies bus after the match. Haven't read yet if any controversy on the pitch. Seems a strange score to me 58-10, 59-1. Pete

This was to be the match of the round but I guess both sides at the moment would be content with a draw. Sri Lanka has been using Aussie coaches for some time and this has lifted their game to make them a real force.

Nope, that would be the league from hell with me running it! Pete

Well, I'm a goner. Shot well in the foot. Picked the thing they call 'super over' but forgot to pick scores therefore I get 0 for all the quarter final matches. Pete

Thought you'd dropped the proverbial b*ll*ck there Pete, but looking at the results you're certainly picking up points for the QF's. You took 1.5 on the Pakistan vs West Indies match for the winning team - but no Margin or bonus points. Maybe that's where you are going to lose out.
