Australia are our bogey team. Let's play England
I'd be happier to play England rather than Aus. Their tourney, they've been dominant the last four years, and they're more likley to choke on the big stage
-
Dying at work but reliving the magic!!
Hoping that bit of spice from Guppy will be what he needs to break out of his funk. If we can bowl like that to India's awesome line up then we should have confidence against Oz/Eng.
Would like to play Oz for a 2015 redo, but taking on England at home would also be super cool.
Holy shit. We made it!!

fucking bat fucking first

@dogmeat It would be classic craps fan stuff. They build you up to tear you down.
nah, it's different this time, i don't reckon there is any expectation. It'll be like last night, where we expect to lose, and are astounded we win.
There will be zero pressure of expectation on Sunday. Celebrate bitches! Play with freedom!! Guppy with 148 off 117 to set us up
-
@mariner4life Well there is the expectation that we will lose, regardless of who we play. I think it is called experience.
It is fun just being at the big dance though.

Let's be Pakistan c1992. Sneak into 4th spot, beat the no.1 team in the SF and then England in the final.
on paper that 1992 Pakistan team is fucking fantastic.

I would take a Cricket World Cup win this year over an AB's World Cup win
No bloody way would I take a Cricket world cup over a rugby world cup. I hate the feeling of not winning the rugby. I feel shit for days on end.
-
@Crazy-Horse plus, we can have both...
-
@taniwharugby yes that's the dream. Has it been done before? Aus would be the only ones if so.
-
@Crazy-Horse Aus won CWC in 1999....
-
@taniwharugby bastards.

The Aussies did it in 99. There wasn't a (cricket) world cup in 91 (it was 92). If you count the 91/92 as a double it doesn't help since Pakistan won that year.

If we win a CWC I will still be celebrating long after the RWC ends.

Be careful what you wish for. 1999 looms like a dark cloud over everything we do, a glorious period which we will never match, but we constantly yearn for.
It gave a young me the taste of victory so sweet I've been chasing it ever since, like a junkie craving a hit. Yet deep down I know the sensation can never be replicated.
It's the same reason I've never bedded a supermodel or been to the summit of Everest. Obviously I could do both if I wanted, but it would ruin my future.

Yeah I hear you bro! Same reason I never tried Heroin! Just be all over it!
Good strength on your part resisting the Supermodel temptation! Big Ups!
