    10th Match - Australia v West Indies

    World Cup Final ? Both these two feel like they've come to win the trophy . Pretty impressed by the Australia fightback , they might lack skills but they got some steel . So far as greatest playing batsman goes , it all boils down to Root , Smith or Kohli in my opinion . I reckon Kohli...

    10th Match - Australia v West Indies

    I reckon West Indies should ease off the short stuff for now , put that tactic in their back pockets and save it for crunch moments later in the tourny . If they keep at it at this tempo , by the time they really need it , the Umpires will be all over them . I dunno if it's a good look , I...

    6th Match - England v Pakistan

    I still think there's a bit more to it than what has been reported . I'd believe Jos and Joe over Morgan any day of the week and they aren't talking . It's not like England are strangers to the whole drama of looking for reverse etc. We're often spoken to about throwing it into the deck. From...

    7th Match - Afghanistan v Sri Lanka

    Cobblers , burning through my internet allowance so I'm gonna have to switch to DAB radio only for the rest of this match . Will have to look through the schedule and pick the key fixtures to watch . Right up for this game though . As an admiring neutral , I feel like a hippy teacher . I want...

    7th Match - Afghanistan v Sri Lanka

    This match is in Wales , which is famous for its rain . For people who haven't visited , it's like a mild monsoon ...but all year round ...with horrible light . Cardiff is down in the dry bit ,just under a metre of rain/per year for those softies . I get over 1.2 metres in an average year ..they...

    Injuries thread

    I was looking forward to seeing that lunatic running in . One of the World's greats in this generation of bowlers :( . I suppose there might be an outside chance he'll make the next World Cup . Plenty of older players have come into this CWC'19 tournament , some on one leg and carrying a bit of...

    6th Match - England v Pakistan

    Did anyone else on here wonder if there was a bit of funny business going on during Pakistans fielding ? Very early on , I got the distinct feeling that something odd was being done with the balls . There sure seemed a lot of hand bandages coming into contact with them .My spidey senses were...

    6th Match - England v Pakistan

    Poor performance by England , I know they give up bonus runs easily but today was especially bad. Even if we end up winning this game, we aint playing like the World Cup winners.

    6th Match - England v Pakistan

    Today I expect a brave Englishman to do his duty ....and break that horrible electric guitar . Looking forward to this game , was a bit underwhelmed by the short fixtures we had last few days but Bangladesh v SA cheered me right up :) .

    4th Match - Afghanistan v Australia

    I liked a lot of what Afghanistan tried to do . Some nice striking ; some lovely pace bowling . They were well beaten but not blown away by Australia .

    A question about IPL for non-India, non-India based fans

    Let's see , I'm a white Brit and have casually followed IPL since the early days ...only casually though . I tried following players but that didn't work out for me , Some of them spent most the season on the bench . :D Also the English International team and the County game is just revving up...

    2nd Match - West Indies v Pakistan at Trent Bridge

    Those big balloons are ridiculous . Surprised they made match two .

    2nd Match - West Indies v Pakistan at Trent Bridge

    I'd guess West Indies are coming in a bit part-baked as a team . Honestly it'll warm my cold dead heart seeing the old guard back for a final time . Got a lot of time for that Shimron Hetmyer fella too.

    1st Match - England v South Africa at The Oval

    You say that , but England had all kinds of good measured analysis , in 2007 and '11 and '15 ...and it didn't help us none .We were so far off the pace in '15 it was embarrassing . After the debacle of 2015 ,England had to tear up everything we thought we knew about one day cricket . One of the...

    1st Match - England v South Africa at The Oval

    So pleased for them . Now gimmee them points! . I want to feel like a big man at the top of the table for a night . Still pretty impressed with SA in the field , England have been barging through attacks and SA chilled them right out . Archer is a crazy bonus . Honestly , I thought he was a...

    1st Match - England v South Africa at The Oval

    Was that 'the Claw' ? Stokes has a messed up finger and has caught crazy catches before with it .

    1st Match - England v South Africa at The Oval

    Pretty impressed with South Africa , negated the English batsmens' proclivity for quick runs. England did try to push on but never got into that groove . Good fielding , nice captaincy , a good run out for them . Now England are in the position of having to bowl em out or hold them down...
