Not going well for both the main sub-continent teams. Firstly, India 120-4 last time I checked against Pakistan after about 33 overs. But what gets me is Pakistan on 73-6 against Ireland! Great bowling from the Irish and we could see a major upset here. With 2 on the cards, I think we might see at least one upset. Well good luck to them both, but India and Pakistan know the pressure is on and they have to sort the problem out.

Come on Ireland and Bangladesh.

Two upsets are looking likely here. I am enjoying both the matches right now. The chases will be very interesting.

I still think India will win but who knows with the Pakistan/Ireland game.If they finish them off it only needs one batsman to have a bit of luck for 8-10 overs and it could be all over.

Good cricket from Bangladesh, India 'should' be able to defend that total.

Pakistan still struggling - only 12 run scored in the last 7 overs.

I wonder is this pitch a minefield?.

Update: Pakistan 131-9.

Who would have believe Ireland would be capable of this?.

In the mean while BD had got off to a decent start. They are 35-1 now. Batsmen have played some lovely shot and bowlers have bowled some good deliveries. The pressure in on India.

Bangladesh is playing really well here. Creaming Zaheer and Munaf. Time for a bowling change....else the match will be over soon. Two fours and a huge six sailing over the midwicket boundary in one zaheer over. This is good batting. Munaf got so upset that he started some verbal attack also. Good cricket this from Bangladesh.
