That was Afridi's Chris Jordan moment. Goes to show it can happen to anyone. When you're in the moment and you lose it completely, you just can't seem to be able to shake it off and do something different. Reminds me of Stokes all those years ago.
What a brilliant match. If Hasan Ali had taken that piss easy catch that would have been game over. Then a few balls later it's over anyway with Wade hitting three quick sixes. I feel for Afridi as it was clearly playing on him that his team mate cost him a wicket and the team a final with his butter fingers. One of my favourite bowlers to watch is Afridi.
I just watched this over here on ESPN+. Three Home Runs*** off the those three balls to win the game. Awesome! *** Disclaimer: I've lived here since 1996, so I get confused sometimes, as with the pronunciation of Tomato and Zed.
Matthew Wade was played low down on the roster but hit some home runs in to the end zone to win them the touchdown and a place in the World Series.
Does whoever win the Final become World Champions, like every other domestic competition over here? (Obviously, they do, as it is a World Cup, but I just wanted to be facetious).
two cracking semi finals, both swinging 1 way then then next and sure the final will provide entertainment think the aussie big game mentality will win though but really hope for NZ win and chasing will be their strength again
It's going to be a nightmare chartered flight to Australia with the Australia team for our test players who are still in Dubai if Australia win this.
