    Final - England v New Zealand

    He hasn't been completely ****; but apart from one game, he was either distinctly underwhelming or actually pretty bad.

    Man of the tournament?

    > Has anyone ever actually wanted to do that? There were two profs of mine (of German origin) who became Indian citizens by naturalisation. And a third one who applied and was rejected, for no apparent reason. No sportsman would be foolish enough to attempt it, even if they wanted to do it...

    Rank the World Cups from best to worst

    This has been the best World Cup in a long long time.

    2nd Semi Final - Australia v England

    England now has metamorphosed into a very good bowling side; completely out-bowled Australia.

    1st Semi Final - India v New Zealand

    All in all, this has been the best World Cup in ages. Capped now with a great semi final game.

    Will the Kiwis choke against Australia in the final again?

    I would expect the Kiwis to have a close game against England in an exciting final. The English would be high on confidence, after trouncing Australia in the semi final; hopefully the Kiwis would still edge it on the big day.

    1st Semi Final - India v New Zealand

    I think they realised quite early that 250 was going to be a challenging target on this pitch. They read it perfectly.

    1st Semi Final - India v New Zealand

    That is the game then! Well done, Kiwis! Now dish out more of the same stuff to England in the final!

    1st Semi Final - India v New Zealand

    Excellent six balls. C'mon, New Zealand; just keep your heads now and you have this.

    1st Semi Final - India v New Zealand

    Don't get a climate; please. The Kiwis must surely be ahead on D/L at this stage.

    CdG! CdG!! We want CdG!

    1st Semi Final - India v New Zealand

    It does not matter really; eleven an over required. Just bowl fast and straight and a shade short at MS Dhoni..

    1st Semi Final - India v New Zealand

    C'mon. All you need is one wicket now. Give the ball to Lord Colin; he will deliver.

    1st Semi Final - India v New Zealand

    250 or more has been successfully chased only twice in this World Cup. Though those two chases did look easy when they came off. To put things in perspective, the Sri Lankan attack defended 232 against England. Ps. I'm not ghambhiringh; I do want to see a New Zealand vs England final. EDIT...

    1st Semi Final - India v New Zealand

    250 would be about par. With 23 balls remaining, five wickets in hand, New Zealand should be able to get well above that. Just go full IPL mode.
