Pakistan beat India and England stun Windies; A weekend of World Cup cricket
Listen now
Description
A review of the first weekend of ICC T20 World Cup 2021 action from Rich, Oli and Tom.  Superb bowling from Shaheen Shah Afridi set Pakistan up for a memorable run chase against a below-par India. Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan won it in style by 10 wickets.  Sri Lanka tracked down a challenging chase of 172, with Asalanka starring for a previously underestimated batting order.  The West Indies' superstar batters fail spectacularly against England's spin attack of Moeen Ali and Rashid Khan, leaving the tournament favourites a simple chase for a big win.  Australia make hard work of their response to a poor total from South Africa but get there in the end. Did South Africa get it wrong tactically in the final overs?   This is The Hundred Club: a community for fans of short format cricket.
