Dwayne Smith has absolutely destroyed Pattinson .. 3 sixes in one over. 53* off 31 balls currently.

EDIT : Doherty's first two balls going for a 4 and a 6. WI going at over 11 now, amazing. Smith just holed out trying another six down the ground. WI 110/3 after 9.4

Three 6's in an over? Pah, we know one who went 3 better

Pattinson is a rubbish ODI/T20 bowler. Quality in tests, though, we'll probably win the next 5 Ashes off the back of him and Cummins.

Cant wait for the t20 world cup in september!! Cmon pakistan!

[capriccioso 2,545]

I'll be rooting for Afghanistan in the T20 world cup should they qualify. Aussie's don't take T20's seriously, so I'll keep an eye on our results but we'll probably be knocked out early. Other than those two it'll be Sri Lanka and India, as I am half Sri Lankan-Indian.

I HATE HOW WHEN WE WIN THE ASHES THEY GET TAKEN BACK TO ENGLAND

THEY SHOULD SIT IN OUR CAPITAL WHEN WE WIN

I feel better now. The Ashes are all I care about when it comes to the sport of Crickets.

Why does this always happen when I rep you

But yeah in essence I agree with you. Those Ashes were meant for us to keep.

Sri Lanka

I am embarrassed at how my semi-country of origin is performing with the bat!

Mumbai've started well enough .. dangerous pair at the crease though.

I hate the IPL, but it does have it's positives in entertainment value

T20's not half bad actually. Here's an amazing clip from the Australian T20 league from earlier this year/late last year:

Haha, in Sri Lanka we do the same with Muralitharan, Sangakkara, Jayasuriya and Mahela. And I'm half-Indian, but it surprises me that Sachin is still more popular than Dhoni.

He's glorified just because he was a great player in a mediocre indian team once upon a time

never mind

Two series wins on the trot, good start, I think we're back.
