Over 11 runs an over, going to take some big hitting from Stoinis, I'll back him in.

That was amazing. Ali dropping that catch will be looking for a new passport.

Matthew Wade......Wow!!!

One of the great white ball performances.

Stoinis and Wade pulling it out from the fire - not many would have had them in the team. Especially Wade with everyone pushing Inglis. Both having excellent tournaments in positions we've typically struggled in.

Bravo George Bailey!! The golden touch...nailed it!!!

It was amazing. Balls of steel Wade to play those two scoop shots.

One of the best T20 games.

Yep, Wade ain’t my favourite cricketer but great knock.


but the most stupid commentary quote goes to this dill, Gautam Gambhir:

“What an absolutely pathetic display of spirit of the game by Warner! #Shameful What say @ashwinravi99?”

because Warner had the temerity to hit a ball that bounced twice for 6. What a dill.

If you can go out on a ball that bounces twice you can certainly hit a six off it. Gambhir should brush up on the rules.

I heard that comment too and was gobsmacked.

But ... can you go out on a double-bouncer? It gets called no-ball. If he had been caught would it have been out?

I don't think it can be called a "no ball" until it bounces more than twice. As far as I can recall, the only way you can go out on a no ball is by run out.
