    <p>Afghanistan, who are ranked 9 in the world, went through their pool unbeaten and join Group 1. Will be interesting to see how they go against the tier 1 teams.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>The Bangles join our pool.</p>

    <p>Lifting my assss out of bed at that hour is enough of a workout let alone thinking of smashing tin. You're a more dedicated fellow than I am JK.</p>

    <p>Woulda been amusing though, picturing an angry JK busting out some PBs with not a soul around to see him :mocking:</p>

    <p>I note that Aust, SA and NZ are the only teams from the "big 8" who haven't won a previous T20 WC.  I guess that shows how open this format can be.  My money is still on India though.</p>

    <p>Left out Boult, Southee, McClenaghan and Nicholls according to Kane.</p>
    <p>NZ won the toss and will bat first.</p>

    Nice tribute to Martin Crowe before game.<br><br>
    It could just be the choice of singer but the Indian national anthem sounds like a kid's song.

    <b>New Zealand have left out Southee, Boult, Nicholls and McClenaghan!!</b><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:tahoma, arial, sans-serif;font-size:13px;"> That's a massive call. I'll confirm that for you soon, but it looks like Williamson is going in with three spinners - Nathan McCullum, Ish Sodhi and Mitchell Santner. Adam Milne and Corey Anderson seem to be the only seam bowlers. I'll have the confirmed team for you asap.</span></blockquote>

    <p>Really no choice on that track, it's got to be spinners</p>

    <p>126 /7 off 20</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Pretty impressive from India and if this place is any indication there will be a lot of 140-150 battles</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Indians look to have it all worked out, NZ the antithesis of that</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>6 singles an over will pretty much do it so India will get them 2 down unless.....the blackcap rollercoaster fires up. Nah that won't happen as there'll be no pressure on the Injuns</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>yawn, you blokes have done well to sleep through this</p>

    <p>Frustrating that. Need a miracle.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Hopefully they try to smash our bowlers out of the park rather than cruising at 6 an over.</p>

    <p>Yeah Glath, T20 dies in the arse as a spectacle the moment you can get away with conservative cricket shots, i.e. no need to invent anything</p>
