Currently in a pub in Clapham and a group of about 10 sterotypical Aussies walked in, you know the type - loud, rude and obnoxious - I've got a T-shirt with the England cricket badge on, and one of them turned to me and went "so who's gonna win the World Cup then!?"
My reply: "well it won't be f*cking Australia, will it?"

Copping a lot of flack. And they call us whining poms! :lol:

Love a bit of irony ;)

And did those feet in ancient time,
Walk upon England's mountains green?
And was the holy lamb of god
On England's pleasant pastures seen?
And did the countenance divine,
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among these dark satanic mills?
Bring me my bow of burning gold!
Bring me my arrows of desire!
Bring me my spear, oh clouds unfold!
Bring me my chariot of fire!
I will not cease from mental fight,
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
Til we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land
 
It’s during the intervals, where sky used warne, rob key etc, will ch4 shoehorn their own staff into that period? Unless it’s just going to be completely just using skysports coverage with the icc commentators


Was talking to my other half about this yesterday (I did get a sense that she was thinking, you really are a boring fucker) If sky are letting C4 show it, it would be there logo, commentators and everything, its a huge advert for Sky, couldnt care less tbh, as long as we win

Putting that on the juke box at 10:25. Loud.
 
Proper bag of nerves here, massive day in my life anyway. 43 and never seen my team or country win anything, I really hope today is the day. That loss against Pakistan when I was 16 would be worth it for a win today.

Ha'way lads, do yourselves proud.
