T20 Australia v England 28/10/2022

[Jap Stammer]

Can’t get over how shit this tournament has been. Life has been completely sucked out of it.

Cricket doesn’t help itself at times.

^This!

I haven't hardly seen any of the games on TV because of work - what I have seen was crap.

There seems to be little or no atmosphere at the games and the whole thing feels like a 'filler' for better games to come.

Don't think it's helped that it's pretty much exactly 12 months since the last T20 WC. Feels like an absolute overkill

Agree with this, would have been better next year, maybe not during the country’s wet season.

While double headers might represent good value for the ticket holders, there was always the chance that a wet day would rule out both games.

This has happened today and reduces the league to a farce. Ireland's great win the other day can't be built on and the much anticipated Ashes clash falls foul of the weather at the same time.

Playing a 'world' tournament at this time of year is crazy - worse than the 1999 World Cup when it was in May. That time they got lucky

Forecast for an absolute load of rain on Tuesday at Brisbane too, that will end up called off and we will be out.

Yep 100 per cent chance of heavy rain

What's the weather like for Australia's match on Monday does anyone know

Fine and dry, annoyingly

Well done to Australia for progressing to the semis then. England can't be judged by fans on this world Cup mind.

No matter what anyone says, we would've beaten Ireland, chances are we'd beat Australia on recent form.
