Welcome to the Super 8s! Cricket gets hotter from here. South Africa, West Indies, USA and England in one group. India, Australia, Afghanistan and Bangladesh in the other group. Each team plays a game against each other in their own group and the top two from both sides get to the knockouts. The format is simple but what's amazing is the story of USA. It started well for them on June 1 against Canada but the real statement was made on June 6 against Pakistan where they were simply outstanding and made people think, hang on they actually don't look like real newbies. Pakistan, the runners up last-time, were stunned in the Super Over and the name Saurabh Netravalkar started doing the rounds after his heroics. And here they are, not just qualifying to the next round of this event, but also booking their place for the next T20 World Cup in India in 2026. They have a stiff task at hand now with giants in their group. Can USA continue to pull off more surprises?*

67m and 61m square boundaries and 74m straight down the ground. Wind is coming across the ground so it will assist hitting to the short boundary," says Shaun Pollock. Waqar Younis adds "It doesn't give a really good look. Games played here have been low scoring. Pacers have to stay back of a length because you get some extra bounce as well.

You're a fan of Klassen? Aren't you?
I never ranked Klassen among great big hitters before the IPL this year.

They all wear very good quality helmets these days.
After the shocking death Phillip Hughes, the helmet rules have also changed in cricket.

SA's Final score is 194/4

I think the USA have blown their chance now. Does the RR have any say in the super 8 like it did in the group games?
reply

Yes. It always will have a say. Unless they win all the games then it won't be a problem.
reply
Yes, RR has a say because we still have 2 groups of 4 teams each.

Nooooo! This won't help US! They have lost the third wicket as well.

Aaron Jones is a goner this time after making a 0 and consumed 5 balls.
