Really?
This team?
Out in straight sets, while Ireland are through to the next round.
The only teams that went out before them are Scotland and Bangladesh.
That is it.
Dirk Nannes, whom Andrew Hilditch almost laughed off as a possibility, is playing for a team that is one average loss away from going through to the next round.
Ricky Ponting, whose captaincy mistakes came at a strike rate of over 150, is leading a team that is on its way to sunny Leicestershire.
Come on, how funny is this shit.
Go the dutch, you magnificent amateur bastards.
Its going to take a lot to convince me that the vc wanker Michael Bingle deserves a T20 spot. Who’s spot did he take anyway?
Credit where credit is due though.
Ricky’s getting a lot better at those post-match losing speeches.
I hate T20, but I have to say all these upsets have been shit hot entertainment. I can’t wait to see the Dutch get through into a group that also includes Ireland. A semi final berth must now be an outside chance. If they can beat Ireland all they need to do is upset the lankans or the kiwis! Then Dirk can really give Hilditch a big fat one finger salute!
Lets look at it this way – 2 champions teams out of the cup:
Australia and Pakistan!

They were out-classed. Another quick bowler wasn’t going to help them. As for the batting… (gaffaws).

Rob, not saying him playing would make a difference, just pointing out he wasn’t good enough to be in this team according to A Dilditch.
Fair point, he couldn’t have been worse than Bracken. I was quite impressed by Dirk against England. He was quite quick and looks the part.
