    ************Official IPL 2020******

    Defending 150 with Siraj as your strike bowler. Good luck with that. Kohli and his below par strike rate jeopardizing the team yet again. This strategy of having a below par run rate in the middle overs only to burdenize AB to play a blinder every game was always doomed to fail. It's going to...

    ************Official IPL 2020******

    Gosh RCB have got to be the most frustrating team on the planet. Don't know why I decided to watch IPL this year. Totally ruined my mood. Same old same old every year. Top heavy, poor middle order, relying on AB to play a blinder every game and a weak bowling attack.

    2nd Semi Final - Australia v England

    I deliberately left that out. But the 50 over World Cup certainly has more prestige compared to the T20 format atleast for now. My question is how this would compare to their victories in other big sporting tournaments or rather how important would this victory be considering England are...

    2nd Semi Final - Australia v England

    Curious to hear from English posters, how big of a deal would this be if England were to go on and win it ? England haven't won that many 'mass sports' international tournaments in recent history... If I remember correctly, you won a Rugby world cup in 2004 but nothing since then ?

    Roy, Bairstow or Williamson Depends on who out of these three produce a match winning performance in the final

    2nd Semi Final - Australia v England

    England's win percentage in ICC tournament finals is rather poor They have just one won one final out of 8 final appearances in ICC tournaments Off the of my head ODI WC '75, '79, '87, '92 T20 WC 2016 CT 2004, 2013 That is a lot of finals lost

    2nd Semi Final - Australia v England

    I know football world cup is the holy grail for England But potentially, World Cup and Ashes in one of the summer.... How big of a deal would that be ?

    This is some of the finest batting I've seen from an England team Treat to watch

    Michael Clarke even with his thick Australian accent is far more tolerable than the Australian Manjrekar

    Doing the same stuff to Lyon as they did to India's spinners Hope it sustains

    2nd Semi Final - Australia v England

    Roy probably is the most aesthetically pleasing England(South African) batsmen I have watched tbh

    2nd Semi Final - Australia v England

    Damn, how good South Africa would have been if they had Roy and De Kock up top (random comment I know)

    2nd Semi Final - Australia v England

    Neat start from England Don't lose any wickets in the first 10 and this is game over

    2nd Semi Final - Australia v England

    Behrendoff got a 5-fer at Lord's. Starc is Starc and Cummins can be handy too. Won't be easy but if England can't chase 224 with that batting lineup, they'll probably never win a world cup tbh. Won't get a better chance than this to finally win the entire thing.
