Title: Cricket World Cup - Match 7 - Afghanistan vs Bangladesh - 18 Feb 04:30 p.m. NZT
Post by: Wolfie33 on February 15, 2015, 11:49:04 AM

Ok, Game 7 and we have Bangladesh ranked 9th up against Afghanistan ranked 11th.
This is a Day/Night game to be played at the Manuka Oval in Canberra & the forecast is looking a little iffy at this stage.
Weatherzone AUS reckons a 70% chance of rain with possible thunderstorms & similar for adjacent days.
I'm guessing some play will be possible, but we'll have to wait and see.
The dreaded Duckworth Lewis stuff may be a factor.

In warm up matches Afghanistan were beaten easily by India & had a close win over the United Arab Emirates.
Bangladesh had narrow losses to Pakistan & Ireland.

For me, this will be very interesting game & I hope the weather doesn't interfere too much.
The head says Bangladesh, but who knows??

Bangladesh for me, but I'm picking a close game.

This is a Day/Night game in Canberra. Todays forecast is looking quite a bit better than a few days back so its looking like we'll get a full days play, but fingers crossed.  ;)

RESULT

Bangladesh won this one in a canter, but were made to work at times.
Afghanistan were under the pump from the start, 3 down for 3 runs in the 3rd over, & never really recovered !!

And the weather played no part, and a full game.
