**Official** Group B Discussion - Australia, West Indies, Ireland

Would be pretty horrible if this is a rain affected match. West Indies made it through last time (to the semis) because they got a prank D/L revised target against England.

If there's no further play Australia and West Indies go through, I take it? Do the scores in an abandoned match count towards net run-rate?

77-4 in the 13th, not abysmal but surely not enough either (match reduced to 19 overs, WI will probably have to make 4 or 5 more). Ireland seem to have some nice looking women supporting them (a few WAGs, perhaps?) and they enjoyed that 6 over long-leg by O'Brien.

Rankin missing with a gastric illness is a big loss; he may have played his last game for Ireland.

Someone has to tell Bumble to stop with this "wallop" thing. I know he loves his irritating gimmicky catchphrases but this is just ridiculous.

Did I hear he has 5 first-ball ducks this year playing for Ireland?

That is incredible if so.
The last 4 times I can recall him batting for Ireland he got: 0 (1), 0 (2), 0 (1) and 0 (1)

A golden duck against England in the World Cup, a second ball duck against Ireland at Belfast in June, a golden duck against Australia the other day and a golden duck against West Indies today.
