Official ICC 2015 CWC thread

Was very clever of Bangladesh to delay bringing in Sakib&Mushfiqur. But it's looking like an 80 run loss at best.
I see Cricinfo folk disagree... justifiable to some degree.

Ehsan: "Ridiculous!!! 2 best batsmen of the team come in to bat when the match is already lost."

Azi: "I have no idea, why Mushfiqur bats at 7th in this mega event. In his captaincy he mostly batted at 4 and his average is quite well and he played some match winning innings on that number."

In Tests most hearts sank when the sixth AUS wicket fell and Gilly walked in.
 
I should do well to stay clear of games involving PAK and PAKlite(Afghanistan). The former did it against WI, and the latter have somehow pulled it off against one of the best seam attacks of the tournament.

I was so certain Scotland would take this. #Gutted! :D

So I make a wrong pick yet go up one place in the table? :confused:

In my view the best opening seam attack belongs to Zimbabwe: Panyangara+Chatara. Absolutely unplayable in the first 10 overs (horrible at the death :D)

As a unit, I tink the Scots ar ethe best. I've been impressed by them.

Strangely enough I thought Afghanistan (i.e. PAK rejects in disguise) would be the ones to shootout most teams because they have some pacy bowlers with a decent amount of control.

You use the word very loosely, but what do I know, I'm scraping the barrel in Superbru :p.
 
But seriously, our guys play probably the least amount of cricket among top 8 nations, take the most rest during series, and pick up the most injuries...
As with rugby they are simply just not fit enough to international standards, we keep resting the buggers to "protect" them and then wonder why they aren't on form for big games
 
That is bad news indeed. They were reporting this morning on the radio that 'someone' was injured but for some reason wouldn't reveal who, which I found quite strange. Anyhoo...

So how would the team look now?
