ODI World Cup

Here’s to hoping that the T20 World Cup next year will be a better tournament than this. Low bar, I know, but for me it’s one of the very few occasions that I won’t be a neutral in an ICC tournament

Groups / super8 / semis is not the greatest format would prefer more knockouts but I guess we have to make sure india gets tons of games, so there we are

I would be rather give credit for good sporting performance than someone like you who hates this team or that team be it football or cricket.

Would hate to have your outlook on things

Yes, imagine being emotionally invested in a team sport.

You carry on with your homogenised T20, clapping wildly as the same batsman hits the same bowler for 6 for the 5th different combination of franchises.

That’s not what’s it was about at all.

My own team (England) where my emotions are invested were out.

So I see no problem accepting any good cricket on show after that from whichever team produces it.

Rather than having a wanking competition about who hates Australia or India more

Or the poster I quoted who spends 50% of his posts saying who he f***ing hates all the time.

I hate the Aussie cricket team. A hatred built up over many many years of being battered by them and even more years of putting up with their shithousary, cheating, bullshit and arrogance. Bollocks to every single last one of them.

Still f***ing hilarious watching them destroy the dreams of India's cretinous fans though.

As has been stated, you're better then us unevolved simpletons who dare to have a passion for the sport. We get it.

Well totally get passion for your own team as stated.

Can’t be bothered hating others when result makes no difference in the slightest to my team.

Is it passion hating teams when your team not playing??

Can you not be passionate like for your team but still appreciate good cricket from others?
