These two games are an eye-opener. Even the best in the world can't adjust quickly enough from the 250 kind of wickets proudly offered to them. That is why they need 160-170 games from time to time. Those are good because they challenge batsmen.

@BCCI very easy to statpad and win a World Cup by scoring 250 runs and relying on Jasprit Bumrah to pull out a win every game. different situation abroad. not every day can you chase 180 in 12 overs.

Ireland win the 2️⃣nd T20I by 1 run and clinch the series. Up next for #TeamIndia is the T20I series against England. Scorecard ▶️ bit.ly/IREvIND-2ndT20… #IREvIND

HISTORY HAS BEEN WRITTEN IN BELFAST. ✍️ - Ireland have whitewashed India 2-0 in the T20i series. 🇮🇪 ONE OF THE GREATEST EVER MOMENTS IN THE HISTORY OF IRISH CRICKET.

@verstappenews that was a genius move. only Max things.

MAX HAS OVERTAKEN ANTONELLI AND LECLERC OH MY GODODHSH HE IS P3!!!!

@TrollFootball to follow up only 20 minutes of pedestrian stuff with this was crazy

Last 5 minutes of Algeria vs Austria

@FanaticsFerrari this is cheating. why did Antonelli get the double yellow then.

🚨| No further investigation for Russell for infringing yellow flags in Q3. He will keep his pole position. It’s a SCANDAL.

two amazing days for Ireland cricket.

isn't Russell celebrating a bit too early. im sure he knows he hasn't got it too.

Pierre Gasly is such an underrated driver.

@SanMarinoTeam They already have a system, they used this for the 48-team U-17 World Cup. I know FIFA will give logistical issues of finalising all matches after the GS ends, but this is the only fair way to go about it. This makes all teams that win their groups by MD2 also play well in MD3.

Es un fallo notorio de la FIFA con la clasificación de los terceros que los inducen a no arriesgar. Ni Japón ni Suecia quieren ganar porque saben que saliendo segundo van a enfrentar a Brasil. Esto en un Mundial no puede pasar jamás. Van a tener que hacer por sorteos las eliminatorias en el próximo Mundial o inventar algo nuevo. Es un papelón que no quieran ganar, parece que están entrenando en vez de jugar un Mundial.

@waystar_reaco this is so close to how I'd rank these films as well. 💯

my top 20 films of the 2020s (so far)

this is extremely shocking when FIFA literally designed its first ever 48-team U-17 WC bracket last year like this. fair competition for everyone, teams not playing who they are playing until the final game, keeping the intrigue alive and giving MD3 some meaning.

FIFA rankings/GS performance should have been used to determine which teams get to play third-placed teams. even Germany and France is supposed to be a Ro16 match while USA continues to have it easy going forward. just another tournament to pull up American interest in "soccer."

they intentionally designed this bracket to help the hosts with an easier Round of 32 matchup under the pretext of "geographical location" than other higher ranked teams. why are Brazil, Morocco, Netherlands, Japan facing off against each other while USA and Mexico get it easy.
