2019 Cricket ODI WC
-
Game over indeed. 64 run win by the Bad Guys who were the good guys in this one, doing us a favour.
England starting down the barrel.
Not out of it yet (just as NZ aren't yet fully guaranteed). But for all the talk of an unstoppable ODI force scoring 400 at will they could repeat England's RWC performance.
I am amused by a couple of posters in the NZ v Windies thread who suggested Pommie media (and public?) were a little condescending to NZ and felt we've been "lucky". Rather be lucky than good ...

From the BBC website:
"Home captain Morgan said before the game that he would not discourage the crowd from booing Smith and Warner"
That worked out well then.

NZ got beat at home the next meeting after underarm at Eden Park. Chappell got a century.
You have a whole Ashes century to roast them. Enjoy it!

Errr. Not sure of your point. But NZ won that. Chappell did get ton though.
(got cleaned up in the next two though in rainy yucky weather in Dunners then Welly - all out 76 the latter, Wrighty a royal duck).

Have watched hardly any cricket for about 5 years - just too much of the bloody stuff on all the time.
But have to say this World Cup has been pretty damn good.

Excellent, ruthless performance by Australia today. England can't afford to lose again. They must beat India and Black Caps to make the semis.
They will certainly be looking over their shoulder that's for sure.

2015 RWC all over again..
Yup. Perhaps they should call Stuart Lancaster to ask who his therapist is? I think the Indians will be too ruthless and have too much quality for England provided they play their top team. The final match vs the BCs will be monumental

Although unlike their Rugby team i actually have a lot of time for their Cricket sides, would rather they won the CWC then Oz or our cricket overlords India
Not sure if the pressure of being at home is getting to them or they peaked prevously. -

The ball from Starc to take Bin was fucking unplayable.

Behrendorff was superb getting a Michelle

boo *that" you fluffy bunnies.
This post leaves me so confused and conflicted as to whether I can "like" it or not. In one sense you've done us a massive favour, but the flipside is that whilst I don't lower myself to Aussie hating for the sake of it like so many kiwis do you have Smith and Warner in the team.
I need another coffee.

@MN5 just remember mate: even tho you're a South Seas Pom, you're not actually a Pom.
Except when you're pretending to be Scottish git. Then you're definitely a Pom.
Scots didn't even make this WC. I blame the loss to Afghanistan last time round.
