Yesterday karma showed what a great leveller it can be. Same foes from that balmy day in July 2019. Tight game. Neesham does more than baking! Bairstow does a Boult in touching the rope while catching the ball. Mitchell rubs it in by refusing to take a single when he deemed himself to be obstructing the bowler (remember 'that' Stokes' boundary!)... The more I watch this Kiwi team, the more I am convinced that it is all due to the therapeutic effect all those sheep in their country have on people. Truly deserved. Only thing that you can hate them is for being so good! அவ்வளவு நல்லவனாடா நீய்யு!! #ZenKiwi

It was a big pool. Sivamani cleaned it up and Biju with the extra advantage of watching the match from the ground, cleaned up the 7-15 over score spread.
Today's semi-final:
Pakistan vs Australia @ Dubai
Promises to be a cracker with a couple of flu-struck Pakistanis against a moody bunch of Ozzies!
Guess them on!
Quiz Section
The answer to the sporty question from yesterday is:
All are logos of sports goods manufacturing companies.
Kookaburra, Hawk, New Balance, Mongoose, White Willow, Woodworm, Xx
More precisely, all except Kookaburra and New Balance are makers of cricket bats, while the two exceptions make field hockey sticks as well.
Sivamani got it all right except for the connection of cricket bats - but he did get that KB and NB are across many sports while the others are only cricket. I will give 10 points to him.
SivaG got 6 right. Hardy got 2 right.
Before you come back to me with sticks and bats, #QMDF (Quiz Master's Decision is Final) 👶
Well done folks.
Will come up with the last question on Saturday, before the guesses for the finals!
Have fun!
