Cricket World Cup 2019

[Rip Van Fish]

Moeen

Aye the bottler when chasing yet again

 

[Boo]

Woakes did his bit/best.

 

[Rip Van Fish]

Australia class above England on today's showing.

Miles in front today mate

 

[The Great MES]

Shit. Hate losing to Australia, it's like losing to the mags

 

[Rustie Trombone]

Never threatened them. Losing the awful Vince so early gave the Aussies the scent of blood they needed and they've been devastating.

Gutted.

 

[Rip Van Fish]

An English wicket not prepared on how the English team want it.

India run that show.

Tidied

 

[Pepe]

Australia class above England on today's showing.

The statistics say quarterly the opposite.

They have played very well and deserve to win, the fact England didn’t put 300 on first is a huge factor.

In this type of game they are very effective, as are most teams.

An English wicket not prepared on how the English team want it.

ICC run that show.

It's a sporting wicket. It's natural and a Lord's pitch, curated by the Lord's staff.

They haven't dropped in a pitch from Kolkata or Perth. It's not the pitch, its the players, specifically their mindset.

 

[viccarlton]

Too many players below their best at the same time at the moment.

Too many players made out to be better than they really are.

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

Very poor. Not good enough, think they're better than what they are

 

[Pepe]

Tidied

Absolutely.

 

[willo]

ECB put all their eggs in one basket for this?

Absolutely shambolic

 

[scotch]

The NZ game tomorrow is huge. We are thoroughly dependent on other results and I think we will have to beat New Zealand.

We need new Zealand to beat Pakistan
Bangladesh to beat Pakistan on the last game
Oh and England HAVE to win at least 1 game ffs

It is prepared to ICC regulations. They didn’t hand them over last night. The pitch will have been inspected for weeks beforehand.

 

[Mainze]

Lost more games than Sri Lanka now

 

[Rip Van Fish]

Absolutely.

They even arranged the fixtures and ensured they got the most tickets in the “ballots”

Bet we are outnumbered 8 to 1 on Sunday

Completely in the minority.

 

[calmac]

Bugger!

 

[scotch]

Whatever happens we need to bat first against India as some of these players are bottling it chasing a score.
That Sri Lanka chase could be the terminal point of our campaign

 

[Boo]

We need new Zealand to beat Pakistan
Bangladesh to beat Pakistan on the last game

Our best bet is to get rained off twice!
