    RTB, have you considered making a thread to settle all discussions on this topic?

    Semi-Final #1- India v Australia- Tuesday, March 4th- Dubai

    Good choice to get Pandya to bowl that last over!

    I guess we're going to find out!

    Semi-Final #1- India v Australia- Tuesday, March 4th- Dubai

    Can any of the Aus bowlers bat? Obviously Maxwell is still to come but if he fails will the others be able to do anything? Edit: particularly relevant now, that came from nowhere.

    Australia on track for an intimidating target of around 80.

    Semi-Final #1- India v Australia- Tuesday, March 4th- Dubai

    This is outrageous, and frankly insulting to the BCCI! They should move all the remaining matches to Mumbai imo.

    England players and selection discussion thread

    Agree with all this. I just think "they" are madmen who want completely the wrong thing. They still think this is 8 years ago and we're scoring 400 on highways every game, in which case yeah, you want a #7 to come in and slog from the off. We're in 2025 and we get bowled out almost every single...

    England players and selection discussion thread

    The problem is: nobody does the job domestically because noone close to playing 50 over cricket for England actually plays 50 over cricket. So either the ODI side gets their allrounders from the Test side (worked with Stokes) or we back a T20 player. I guess they could be trying to do the...

    England players and selection discussion thread

    Dawson should have played far more for England the past few years for sure. A lot better player now than when he got his brief Test run. But seems the selectors aren't interested in him and given his age I'd be surprised if they went there now. He's doing well on the T20 circuit now and deserves...

    Semi-Final #1- India v Australia- Tuesday, March 4th- Dubai

    Hmmm, who to cheer for here? I want Pakistan to get to host the final but if all else were equal I'd prefer India advancing to Australia. Kif, we have a conundrum.

    It was Microsoft Copilot. (ChatGPT was a coward and wouldn't name names.)

    11th Match - South Africa v England

    And current expectation is that we're gonna try and fix it by making one of those players who doesn't understand the 50 over format the captain...

    11th Match - South Africa v England

    That would be unfortunate. It's a good format.

    4th Match - Australia v England

    Update: they did not randomly get good for the tournament.

    11th Match - South Africa v England

    We're going to give them half the score in wides it seems.

    11th Match - South Africa v England

    Hey, we competed in 2 of our 3 games. That's honestly better than we could've done. We're dire right now.
