Cricket world cup discussion thread

Perhaps from a nostalgic point of view but imagine they capitulate in the quarters like they did against the west indies? I suppose the counter argument would be imagine they play like they did to beat England? Still I'm not convinced that they worthy of a final 8 spot on merit alone. If they win on Saturday that'll change my pov.

I agree with you. My feelings are purely sentiment for a host nation and the passion of their people.
 
George Dockrell seems to have fine himself a mischief fielding one in a dive off his own bowling :(
 
264/5 44.3overs

Hup Hup Holland.


The Dutch seem to be heading for over 300.

Maybe their first win too.


Good 100 by Ten Doeschate
 
Borren barreling along just got mooned :o

Great innings by the Dutch skipper.
 
Good show by the Dutch so far. Hope the Irish make a game of it.


Big game coming up.... SL v NZ

SA could be playing one of 'em.
 
Fantastic effort by the Dutch. Not the best bowling effort by the Irish. Should be an interesting chase. Not sure who I'd like to see win this.
 
Check out this move by Russell from yesterdays match. He runs up and then slows down - the umpire looked like he was going to call a dead ball, but Russell went through with the delivery :D Pure win. Watch from about 1:10

The Fantasy IX gods are against me :mad:

Dilshan & Tharanga both failed today. And Dilshan was my captain... :cry:
 
Ireland win pretty comfortably in the end. Hoping to see them get ODI status soon.

Now it's time to root for SL so we get either NZ or Pakistan in the quarters :D

Slinga has the potential to destroy our middle order-tail. Plus they have Mendis and Murali who we may struggle against.
