World Cup Upsets !!!!

The twenty20 World Cup commenced with a bang, and what a BANG it was...
Thanks to Gayle for his explosive innings, W.Indies scored a massive 205 in 20 overs. But the lopsided bowling and fielding by his team undid all the good work done by him and of course the splendid innings played by Gibbs outshined it and eventually, the result, S.Africa won the match with 15 balls to spare..... What an upset..... !!!!!

And if this was not enough, today Zimbabwe has managed to beat the mighty Australians....
Thanks to an all round performance by the Zimbabwean team and the spirited team effort shown by them.....

So, one thing has become clear, that in this format of cricket, there are no favourites......
A couple of mistakes and even the mighty will have to take the beatings.... Good for the game.....
It makes is much more competetive.....
Expecting a lot of fire works in the coming matches and of course, some more upsets!!!!!

Have a nice time ahead !!!!
Cheers !!!!!
