Edit: My bad, didn't see the other replies. Carry on.

Hmm maybe. I feel like England's bowling is going to let them down massively.

Hopefully NZ and India! :biggrin:

That's very true. They were lucky the batsmen woke up on the right side of the bed today!

NZ are certs to go through their group now in my view. They've faced their two toughest tests, and claimed the scalps of both. We'll definitely see one of India and Australia head home early, and NZ only have Pakistan left that will cause them problems.

Despite Bangladesh's growth, NZ should have enough to see them off.

I expect we'll see a final four of NZ, India, and then two from the Windies, England and SA.
Cracking set of games today - not sure how Aussies messed that chase up but Khawaja seems to have found an aggressive streak in him but Warner down the order? Seems odd not to have him open where he normally plays.

England-SA - Credit to the former's batters, thought it was going to be an embarrassing defeat but Root plays each format effortlessly hence why he's become such a top batsman.

For India-Pakistan - head says India as always in these games will handle the pressure better so will win. In theory, Pakistan should be capitalising on India's nerves but they just can't seem to beat India in a WC game. Battle between Amir and India's top order, following on from his Asia Cup perfomance, should be a gripping watch.
Proud of England today! :h:

Australia have chopped and changed their side, order and lineup far too much. They played three players today who, up until a month ago, had never represented Australia in a T20. They have not given enough credence to this format of the game, and they have struggled to reap benefits that a decent preparation allows you.

Definitely not suggesting it's you because I know you're a proud Indian :smile: your comment just reminded me of this guy I know irl


But does anyone else have that one Asian British classmate who will switch teams depending on who's winning? E.g. India win 2011 wc "yeah come on India #proud2beindian.... But then India out for 79 and England chase down 229 "yeah it's fine i dont care I'm british anyway"

Like wtf xD
