This one was over before it started. Sometimes 20/20 games are like that.
South Africa 1/118. 39 balls to go. |

That comment only has validity if you posted it BEFORE the game started. _________________ Donny.

Well, only if you are beset by a particularly entrenched kind of literalism.
How about "This one never really got off the ground"? Or "This one never reached any real level of excitement as a contest"? Etc etc. |

One doesn't need 'literalism' to understand what "This one was over before it started." means.
Oh, by the way, same with "Sometimes 20/20 games are like that." They are rarely to never 'like that'. T20 cricket is the most unpredictable of the 3 International forms of the game - being able to be swung dramatically, one way or another, by one or two of the (up to) 40 overs).

Second match is on Friday at the G.
7.35 pm start. _________________ Donny.
