Game One - England vs Australia

England to bat first.

A slow start and McGrath has two wickets in two balls. England 15/2 from 3 overs.

England's recovery is building, Trescothick and Pietersen have made a useful 50 partnership in five overs.

Another two ball, two wicket salvo from Australia, this time from Warne. England are 70/4 from 9 overs. Trescothick and Collingwood are both gone.

17 balls later, Pietersen is run out for 39. Flintoff is on 32 from 16 balls. England are 109/5 from 12.5 overs. A third double wicket salvo. Pietersen and Jones gone within two balls of each other.

Flintoff is caught off Lee and Australia are in to the tail now. 114/7 and England's innings is a sorry sight.

Plunkett is now gone for 8 which included a six off Warne. 121/8 from 15.3 overs.

McGrath cleans up the tail and England are all out for 139 from 17.5 overs.

END OF INNINGS

Australia to chase 140 at a run rate of 7.00.

Langer is gone third ball for two. Australia 3/1 after first over.

Australia well up with the rate after five overs. Ponting is going well on 24*. Required rate: 6.7.

Double-wicket over for Hoggard. Hayden and Martyn both gone. Australia still favourites to win though. 67/3 from 7 overs.

A big over from Ponting as he passes his 50 in just 27 balls.

He's gone! A wonderful innings of 60 from 34 deliveries (8 fours, 3 sixes). Australia well on course for the win at 106/4 from 10 overs.

Collingwood takes the wicket of Clarke for 4 but it seems too little, too late. 28 runs from 54 balls required.

Symonds is gone for 20 and barring a dramatic collapse, the win is Australia's. 119/6 from 12 overs.

Warne smashes Australia home with two consecutive boundaries to give the Aussies the perfect start.

Australia beat England by 4 wickets.

England 139/10 (17.5 overs, Pietersen 39, McGrath 4-17)
Australia 140/6 (13.2 overs, Ponting 60, Harmison 2-27)​

I'll do Pakistan vs India tomorrow morning. Enjoy :D

Pakistan to bat first.​

  1. Salman Butt is already off like the clappers, 18-0 from 1 over. (Butt 11*, Malik 7*).

  18. Patel gets rid of Yousuf and Raza in an over which goes for 9. 197-5 from 18 overs. (Inzamam 24*, Akmal 7*). Yousuf's 19 = 2x4s, 1x6, 10 balls. Raza's 0 = 2 balls.
  19. Chawla ends with 1-44. 7 off the over with one four. Akmal goes for 7. 204-6 from 19 overs. (Inzamam 29*, Ahmed 2*). Akmal's 7 = 1x4, 3 balls.

Re: Big Cricket Twenty20I Tournament (Squads, Fixtures, Results + Discussion)

Game Three - Australia vs Pakistan​

The two victors from the first round lock horns in the third game of the tournament. Watch out for Salman Butt taking on Glenn McGrath, the two stand-out performers of the first two games.

Australia to bat first.

  1. What an opening over by Akhtar! Australia are left in deep trouble at 2-2 as Langer and Ponting are both gone for 0 from 2 balls. (Hayden 0*, Martyn 2*)
  2. 12 runs and a wicket and Pakistan have started superbly here. Mohammad Sami takes the wicket of Mathew Hayden for 8 from 8 balls. Australia are 14-3. (Martyn 2*, Symonds 2*)
  3. Australia are crumbling to the sheer pace of Shoaib Akhtar. Symonds is trapped LBW for 4 from 3 balls. Australia end the over 20-4. (Martyn 7*, Clarke 1*)
  4. Another 12 runs and another wicket for Sami. Michael Clarke is stumped (?!) and Australia are down and out at 32-5. (Martyn 16*, Gilchrist 0*)
  5. 19 runs and a sixth wicket go down for Australia. Damien Martyn is gone for 30 from 13 balls. Australia are 51-6. (Gilchrist 0*, Warne 5*)
  6. 9 off the Malik over and the first over goes by without a wicket. 60-6. (Gilchrist 0*, Warne 14*)
  7. 6 off the over. Australia are 66-6 from 7 overs. Gilchrist has done sod all but block 3 balls so far. (Gilchrist 0*, Warne 20*)

  10. 2 from Malik's 3rd over to get to the half-way stage. Australia 83-6. (Gilchrist 12*, Warne 25*)
  11. Kaneria goes for 4. Australia just trundling along, trying to bat out the overs. Australia 87-6. (Gilchrist 13*, Warne 28*)
  12. 8 more runs. Australia are 91-6 and Pakistan have missed their chance to skittle Australia out for less than 100, you'd think. (Gilchrist 17*, Warne 32*)
  13. Kaneria finally makes the breakthrough! Warne is out LBW for 32 off 24, then Kasprowicz goes without scoring. Australia 97-8. (Gilchrist 18*, Lee 1*)
  14. Australia reach 100, for the price of 8 wickets. 102-8. (Gilchrist 19*, Lee 4*)
  15. Kaneria cleans house with a stumping and a bowling. Lee is gone for 4 and McGrath for 0. Gilchrist ends on an unbeaten score of a-run-a-ball 26.

  4. 4 from the over. 25-1 from 4 overs. (Butt 16*, Khan 2*)
  5. Kasprowicz is smacked for three consecutive fours as Khan gets going. 38-1. (Butt 16*, Khan 15*)
  6. Pakistan are well on their way now. Warne gets smacked for 12. 50-1. (Butt 23*, Khan 20*)
  7. 14 runs smashed off Symonds. 64-1 from 7 overs. (Butt 30*, Khan 27*)
  8. 7 off Kasprowicz. 71-1. (Butt 35*, Khan 29*)
  9. 9 more off Warne and none of the Aussie bowlers look interested. 80-1. (Butt 40*, Khan 33*)
  10. McGrath returns to the attack and goes for 4. 84-1. 25 to win. (Butt 41*, Khan 36*)
  11. 10 off the Lee over and Butt passes 50 from 33 balls. A great knock for the second time in two matches. 94-1. (Butt 50*, Khan 37*)
  12. A massive 18 run over off McGrath wins the game for Pakistan. What an easy win for Pakistan, who must be up there with the favourites now. They end on 112-1.

Australia 108-10 (14.5 overs, Warne 32, Akhtar 3-8)
Pakistan 112-1 (12 overs, Butt 59*, McGrath 1-31)

Game Four - India vs South Africa

With India losing to rivals Pakistan in Game Two, India will want redemption in the form of a victory against South Africa. The Saffers are looking to get off to the best possible start against India.

India to bat first.​

  1. A tentative start from India. Just 3 off the first over. 3-0. (Sehwag 3*, Jaffer 0*)

  4. A better over as three consecutive fours are scored by Dravid. 30-3 (Dravid 15*, Yuvraj 9*)
  5. Just as Yuvraj was settling, in comes Pollock to obliterate his off-stump. He's out for 11. 38-4. (Dravid 16*, Dhoni 5*)
  6. 11 off the over. 49-4. (Dravid 25*, Dhoni 7*)
  7. Dravid is starting to push on now. 57-4. (Dravid 32*, Dhoni 8*)

  9. 14 from the over and Dravid is gone! 42 from 21 balls - a diamond innings in the rough scorecard. 86-6. (Pathan 10*, Kumble 9*)
  10. 14 runs from the over. India have really started to quicken up. 100-6. (Pathan 10*, Kumble 23*)
  11. 20 off the over and India are shooting along. 120-6. (Pathan 30*, Kumble 23*)

  13. 12 more runs and India are pushing their total up here. 145-7. (Kumble 44*, H Singh 1*)
  14. Ntini takes two more wickets. H Singh and Chawla are both now gone. 151-9. (Kumble 45*, Patel 5*)
  15. 8 more runs and the India tail continues to stretch. Kumble passes his 50 from 23 balls. 159-9. (Kumble 51*, Patel 7*)
  16. 4 more runs and the South African bowlers are getting very frustrated. 163-9. (Kumble 53*, Patel 9*)
  17. 8 more runs and India might have a chance of getting to 200 if they can bat through until the end of the 20 overs. 171-9. (Kumble 59*, Patel 11*)
  18. Talk of the devil. First ball, Nel bowls Patel and India are all out for 171. (Kumble 59*)

  6. Just three off Kumble's first over. 41-1. (Hall 15*, Kallis 25*)

  8. 4 off the Kumble over and the spinners are slowing things down here to good effect. South Africa pacing themselves and will have to be wary of the growing RR. 50-2. (Hall 19*, Gibbs 5*)
  9. 11 off Chawla's over. 61-2. (Hall 28*, Gibbs 7*)

  15. 9 runs and Gibbs passes 50. 44 runs from 30 balls. 128-4. (Gibbs 52*, Kemp 15*)
  16. 5 runs from the over and the game takes another exciting twist. 39 runs from 24 balls required. 133-4. (Gibbs 53*, Kemp 19*)
  17. A massive over of 13 runs for South Africa. Pathan feels the pressure. 146-4. (Gibbs 62*, Kemp 23*)
  18. Kemp launches a six in to the crowd and the Saffers are ahead of the rate! 9 runs off that one. 155-4. 17 runs from 12 balls. (Gibbs 63*, Kemp 31*)
  19. The final nails in the Indian coffin are hammered as South Africa pummel 14 runs out of the hapless Pathan. 169-4, 3 to win. (Gibbs 68*, Kemp 40*)
  20. And Gibbs smashes the winning six off the first ball! South Africa win by 6 wickets in a thrilling encounter. (Gibbs 74*, Kemp 40*)

RAIN STOPPED PLAY - POINTS SHARED

Update: My laptop just crashed which closed the game :/ Therefore, I'll say rain stopped play and both teams can have one point. Sorry. I type this out on Microsoft Word if you are wondering.
