Pakistan wins and James did the worm

 Pakistan beat Namibia by 45 runs.  Rizwan (79) and Azam (70) did the lions share of the work.  With this win, Pakistan has 8 points, topping group 2.  So, I believe they are guaranteed to go through, who will join them?  Afghanistan?  Or maybe New Zealand will pick up their game.  A lot  may be decided when those two hit the pitch tomorrow.

In Group 1, England sits a top the pack, while South Africa and Australia look to be vying for the 2nd slot.  Nothing decided tomorrow for these guys, we'll have to wait.  SOuth Africa did beat Bangladesh today, but looking at the scorecard it seems Bangladesh went back to bed.  Snooze fest.

There is some fearce competition happening around here as well.  Anna and James are separated by a wicket or two and Missy shouldn't feel to comfortable with her gap.  I think all the jostling between these two should provide Catherine the perfect opportunity to surge on by while they're not looking.  Get on those trades Catherine, you've got plenty.  Try a new captain, then tomorrow, try another.

The Calm Before the Worm

 

A Changing of the Guard - at least temporarily

 Anna has a date with a mouse so James has agreed to reem the worm.  Thanks James for taking on this critical task, try not to fall asleep at the pole.

England sure weren't asleep today as they easily beat Sri Lanka by 26.  England were at the bat first and with Buttler putting up 101 no out they reached a total of 163/4 for Sri Lanka to chase.  3 wicket haul for Hasaranga.  Sri Lanka just could not bat today I'm afraid, Englands bowling was just to strong, they went all out after 19 overs 26 runs short.  Until today only 3 out of 16 games had been won by the side who batted first, so well done England on beating the odds.

I also beat the odds!  I have been having some seriously good luck the last few days and I surged past my entire family.  How's it feel to have the baby in the lead?  Feels pretty good for the baby I'll say.  Will it last?  Who knows, I'm only a golden duck away from doom.  Henry has also had a nice surge, finally taking down his eldest.  Join me at the top Henry, we'll go for ice cream!

Tomorrow its Bangladesh / South Africa and Pakistan / Namibia

Good Luck 

Here you leave today and enter the world of yesterday, tomorrow, and worm

 

We've been cow cornered!  Way to surge!

The worm will be going into hibernation for a few days.  Hopefully my team won't follow suit.  I expect it will peek its head out again on Saturday.  Where will Katy be then?

Revenge of the Worms

 

Watch out Mom!  Katy's cows are looking for some sweet revenge.

It's Me, Its' Me! I surged!

 I've finally passed Anna, she must not have picked Shamsi, he did well for me.  We are about a little more than half way through the Super 12 round and here is where things stand.  Everyone in Group 1 has payed 3 matches and with their wins today, England and South Africa top the group.  Special note to England who certainly left the Australians in the Ashes today.  (For you American folk, the Ashes is like The Big Game (for you British folk, the Big Game is like the Ashes))  Anyway, Group 2 hasn't completed their 3 games yet, except Pakistan who currently tops the field, followed by Afghanistan.  

As for us, Sweet Revenge still tops the pack but 805 is about to Stricker 😁 Katy's Cow Corner laid down a pie for the Bright Suns while the Royal Soaring Sixers are looking for another five.  Meanwhile, Slightly Batty is defying all odds by staying ahead of the Chartham Strikers.  I think the Chudley Cannons may have misfired but hopefully they'll be booming again soon.  

Who let the worms out

 

Someone's surging.  Its just not me.
