6 down now, with 125 on the board. They might end up relying on their bowlers to win them this game.

Afridi has gone down in my estimation after this stunt.

Pulled out of the Hundred for 'family reasons' yet he's now trying to get a deal in the Canadian T20 series which is basically paying more per game.

Edit - I hope he gets pumped by the Yanks... But that might not be a realistic hope!

Pakistan finish on159-7. Very mediocre innings, the bit I caught after getting in from work. I still think it'll probably be enough for them. The Yanks won't be used to facing an attack of the standard Pakistan have.

They had a series win against Bangladesh recently so there's a small hope. But yeah Pakistan are different gravy.

The Americans need two or three 40+ innings from their top order. It'll be difficult for them.

Are Sky giving up on the Blast this year? There's fixtures this evening, but they're showing Scotland vs Namibia (!) later on.

A World Cup will naturally take precedent but if you want to see any games of the T20 Blast they're all on YouTube. Under the host counties respective YouTube channels.

They’ll be on club’s YouTube channels if not on Sky.

I totally understand the precedent argument if it was later in the tournament. But Scotland vs Namibia? Really? Also, both the Main Event and the Cricket channel are showing the same game. Surely, they could have divided the coverage?

That review smacked of mild desperation to me.
