[QUOTE="BokMagic, post: 106441"] Geez, what`s the story with the "minnow" teams at this CWC? Fair enough, smashing 36 in an over`s pretty impressive, so is Boucher breaking the great Brian Lara`s record for the fastest 50 in the CWC- but it means precisely zero IMO. Also, what did this game mean for the Dutch? Getting farked up 6-0 really- can`t do much good for the game back home. Heck, if the game wasn`t reduced to 40 overs, they might`ve been the 1st side to concede 500 in an ODI- just who wins in such a scenario? Certainly not the minnows, the CWC or cricket in general, that`s for sure. Shouldn`t the associates rather be playing in lesser tournaments, against lesser opposition, growing their confidence and, crucially, their skills-levels before being subjected to this type of slaughter? The Scots weren`t too much better against the Aussies- with no1 and no2 on the current ICC log being let loose against them, pretty much expected really. [/QUOTE]
