Willow? (lemmy.ca)

Does anyone know why the paid PREMIUM TV channel for #cricket in the USA & Canada is called "Willow" it just seems like a really weird choice, one in the long string that really makes it feel like they are actively against growing in the game in Nortb America

Score: India 192/3, 30.3 overs

Cricinfo | India won the toss and chose to bowl | Target: 192

Rahul 19 (29) / Iyer 53 (62)

1st Innings:

6.0: Pak playing slow and well. Looking to get settled in.

7.5: Out! Straight LBW off an in seaming ball by Siraj, Abdullah gone for 20. Pak 41/1

12.3: Out! Imam-Ul-Haq tries to play a cover drive off of a ball by Pandya but edges it, caught by KL Rahul. Decent innings of 36, Pak 73/2

13.2: Not out! Babar sweeps and misses and is given out for LBW. Reviewed by Pak and overturned by 3rd umpire for going down leg side. Pak 74/2

28.5: 50 up for Babar and 150 for Pakistan. Good innings and the Pakis look stable. Pak 150/2

29.4: Fuck yeah out! Babar tries to play a cute cut but misses, ball clips the stump. Out for 50, Pak 155/3

31.0: Drinks break. Pak have started making risky runs for no particular reason. Long may it continue :D

32.2: Out! LBW by Kuldeep originally not given by the umpire, reviewed by India and decision overturned. Saud gone for 6, Pak 162/4

32.5: Out! Unlucky for Iftikhar, off the gloves and into the stumps; he's gone for 4. Pak to collapse now? 166/5

33.5: BOOM BOOM BUMRAAAAH! Clean bowls Rizwan who never manages to reach his 50. Pak 168/6

35.2: I love you Bumrah please never get injured again. Shadab gets lightly tickled on the bails for 2, Pakistan can only hope to reach 200 now. 171/7

39.6: Nawaz gives an easy catch to Bumrah. Bowled by Hardik, out for 4, Pak 187/8

40.1: Hasan Ali skies it massively into the comfortable hands of Gill. He's gone for 12 and Jadeja finally gets a wicket. Pak 187/9

42.5: I didn't expect that to be out to be honest! The last Pakistani wicket in Haris goes out for 2, Pakistan all out for 191. India have a very achievable target.

2nd Innings:

2.5: Out! Good catch taken off a good shot by Gill who can't get enough elevation. He's out for 16, India 23/1

13.1: Rohit finally gets to 50! India 97/2

14.1: Oi Rohit bc. India 107/2

17.3: Iyer Bhai Sexy getting on the action as well, India 125/2

19.6: Yikes what an insane full toss to Rohit who cunts it over the boundary. India 142/2

20.1: Iyer charges down the wicket and hits a straight six. India 148/2

21.4: Out! Afridi bowls a slower one which makes Rohit mistime his shot and gets caught out. He goes for 86, India 156/3

27.0: Just hit some fucking singles goddammit this is boring

30.3: Finally Iyer gets his 50. And what a way to win the match with a 4!

It's never just about sport, particularly with national teams.

This score also gives them the 9th spot for highest One Day International scores over all.

Can't find it on ICC.tv or on Youtube.

Dodgy Run Out? (www.bbc.co.uk)

After the furore over Bairstow's run out in the Ashes, is this one "great awareness" as the BBC says (in the body, the headline seems to have been changed!), or poor sportsmanship?

The only thing I miss about reddit are the Live Match Threads during the match. With the ongoing Asia cup and CWC round the corner can we start hosting the threads here ? I know there are very few people in this community but let's start small, It felt so out of place watching the Ind vs Pak game without the match thread.

I have no idea how those were hosted, maybe there are programmers here who can write the bot for it like on reddit, else atleast initially we can create the thread manually. I genuinely think that the threads will help the community grow.

Streaming is awful. It will give you error messages about not being allowed to be on VPN when you aren't on VPN, it will say its not available in your country, when there are no other way to watch it in your country (which I'm pretty sure its only supposed to do if you are in like India or Australia). Not just streaming matches on YouTube is a disservice to the existing fan-base and even more-so when it comes to trying to expand the fan-base into emerging markets, which is one of the things the ICC is SUPPOSED to be tasked with.

Anytime it is easier to pirate content, such as streaming from a sketchy website, than to get it the legitimate way is always a sign of a poor design. Its even worse when the non-pirated content is also intended to be available gratis.

Man... What a match. Never felt sad for a team other than India when they lost. Tough luck for Afghanistan.
