Pool Standings (Round 9)

Pool Standings (Previous Rounds)

Pool Standings (Total Runs excluding Round 8)

Important: Two Matches from round 8 are still going on so, the runs from that round will be added when the round completes. I've decreased 1 run for @IamSINGLE for a miscalculation in last round. Credit @Carresan for finding the incorrect calculation.
What a round this has been for us all picking Pakistan, a team that's been on a down spiral! Still 2 Bingos but no Jumbo. @Carresan is still leading but @Undisciplined has got a Bingo and narrowed down the lead for @Carresan to 1 point. It's getting interesting here as I can see @suraz, @astro_penguin and @User21000000 can still win if the remaining rounds do well for them. From other Stackers, I ask a Jumbo which can put you ahead of anyone all of a sudden. I don't wanna talk about my performance, I'm ashamed.

Pakistan just fell apart, I certainly wasn't expecting that. The unpredictability is part of the fun though!

Noone was expecting that. It's Cricket for you my dear. It's the most unpredictable game!

Two matches are still going on?? Did they take a tea break?
reply
In round 8 we included two test matches which run for multiple days. Every day is divided into three sessions. There's lunch break in between 1st and 2nd session and there's tea break in between 2nd and third session.

You're doing Bingo after Bingo. I suspect you're getting input from your kids.
reply
I better not reveal any secrets
reply
Well, I know you've someone behind you because you did the same thing in Olympics Pool coming from behind in the end winning back to back games.
reply
That might just be my learning curve.
reply
It's okay if you don't wanna reveal your secret but don't say it was your learning curve. Over the years I've learnt a lot about the game but look at my performance!
I dare say you're ass guessing better than everyone else now. ;)
reply
But this isn't just the games. It's a game of games and I'm a game theorist.

What a shameful and embarrassing effort from Pakistan.
reply
I should've picked Zimbabwe considering how they've been throwing hatred against Indian Cricket for India is not sending its team to Pakistan for Champions trophy in Feburary 2025. Also it's India vs Pakistan, the log standing bad blood. But Alas! I ended picking up shameless team. They've been so consistent in losing without fight against weaker teams.
