guptil makes 200 for nz great showing

That spell from Wahab last night was as good as any ever bowled in Australia in a ODI. Stoked we won since I'm flying down for the final. The game against India will be an epic though, just hope we can make it through.

Tensions escalating

lol Sri Lanka destroyed.

South Africa have made a great start. Sri Lanka made a bad call opening with a slogger. Kumar and Mahela now up against the new ball. Disaster for them.

Still a great player. Not as good as those listed but just on the next level down.

No just no.

Mccullum.

:lol:

Don't shoot the messenger :)

We'll play Pakistan or Ireland, West Indies can't finish third.

South Africa vs Sri Lanka will be a cracking quarter. Tipping the Lankans to knock them out.

Tipping Bangers for the upset.

Two of the QFs have basically been sorted. India will play Bangladesh at the MCG.

Australia will play either Pakistan or the West Indies in Adelaide depending on results today.

Winners of both games will play the SF in Sydney. So it could be an AUSvIND game.

Kumar Sangakarra. As good as Tendulkar, Lara and Ponting. True legend. Would take him over any other batsmen at the World Cup any day of the week.

Honestly how good is Sangakkara? One of the greats.

Yeah but nothing would make him happier than proving those who kicked him out wrong, so if he does get told he's a chance to be picked again, he'll definitely play it for a season. England wouldn't have fucked that chase last night with him in the middle order.

Soooooo he wont be aying.

He doesnt want to play county. Theres no crowds and its dull as fuck. He loved the big bash.

If he does play county cricket, he'll be there. Apart from maybe Joe Root, he's still comfortably better than any other English batsmen. If any player feels that strongly about it that they can't play with him, then that's their problem and they can piss off. He shouldn't have been dropped to start with. You can't drop Pietersen for being toxic and keep Prior, Broad or Anderson in the team FFS.

It's still highly unlikely. For that to happen he needs to first find a county that'll have him, and then Moores needs to get the chop, and then he actually needs to play well enough to actually warrant selection ahead of one of Ballance, Root and Bell. He doesn't just walk into the fucking team FFS, Root and Ballance had excellent summers last year and Bell's never going to be dropped in a million years. The petulant little child's far more trouble than he's worth and if we're talking about batsmen making a comeback then I'm far more enthused about a potential return for Trott. There aren't even that many problems with the test side other than who opens with Cook, and will Cook himself ever find any sort of form ever again. Now just watch them lose the test series to the Windies in April.

Yup, it was all the other losses that make it worse than the one last night.

Any team can have a bad day, or a minnow play the game of their lives. That can be excused.

But this failure to qualify for the QFs has gotta be a new low for english cricket.

Does he want to come back? Is this as certain as you think?

It was far worse when they lost to Ireland in 2011. Bangladesh are a good side and could give India a problem in the quarters. To think this time 2 years England were clearly a far superior team to ours, and the difference between then and now is amazing.

Could help them come Ashes time though. Some dead wood will be gone, they'll have favourable conditions and most importantly for them KP is almost a certainty to be back.

I don't watch a lot of cricket like I used to, but damn I wish I had seen this game:lol:

My god this is a new low for English cricket.

That was a much better game of cricket, there's been a few of them, but too many where the team batting first has a massive total, which is great to watch and all, but much less exciting to watch the chasing teams get no where near it. As for England, I'd be mildly frustrated if it weren't for the fact that A. I find it impossible to give a shit any more, and B. it's pretty fucking funny :lol:
