Well, that was some start to the Twenty20 World Cup. Gayle makes 117 from 57 balls and the West Indies make 205-6. West Indies go on to lose after giving up lots of extras.
New Zealand walking all over Kenya in their match. Kenya made the lowest Twenty20 total of 73, with 6 players not bothering the scorers. New Zealand barely broke a sweat with the bat, easily getting the total in less than 8 overs.
Scotland doing well. They restricted Pakistan to 171-9 and will have a chance if they can start well.
And Scotland go on to lose. A decent start but a seemingly never ending stream of catches led to Scotland getting nowhere near the target. 120 all out with 1 ball left.

Wow, Zimbabwe beat Australia by 5 wickets. Australia made a low total but it was still a difficult chase with rain and all sorts going on.
West Indies lose their game to Bangladesh and that's them out. England beat Zimbabwe by 50 runs and looked pretty good.
Only the West Indies going out was the shock of the group phase but Bangladesh are a good side anyway. Super 8's tomorrow.
A good fielding performance by England, except from the numerous dropped catches that could have restricted SA to a much lower total. And disaster strikes straight away with Wright removed for a duck. Then Pietersen run out after colliding with a SA player and then the third blow for England: Collingwood gone for a golden duck. Shah and Prior need to produce something special now. 27-3.
That collision is mighty suspicious...
Really disappointing in the end, those dropped catches really cost England in my opinion. The batting seemed too rushed too.
And England are out. Not a surprise really. They've only beaten Zimbabwe in the whole tournament so far.
Interesting day of cricket. Lancashire were trying to chase 489 in the final innings. If they got it, they would win the County Championship and with only 5 overs left in the day, they were bowled out 25 runs short.
Pakistan and India play each other in the final of the Twenty20 World Cup. Nice to see a team other than Australia win something. :)
