    42nd Match - Ireland v Pakistan (15th March)

    Look at SAs attack again AB/Duminy is their 5th bowling option. Thats easy runs for the opposition. Pak have decent bowlers and their team make up leads itself to not be so defensless in the middle and later overs. They are still the best team in the world at reverse swing. They have plenty of...

    42nd Match - Ireland v Pakistan (15th March)

    Do you understand its not their bowlers that let them down its their pathetic batting that cant post 250+. West Indies have a lot more fire power in their batting line up.

    42nd Match - Ireland v Pakistan (15th March)

    Ffs are you grouping India and Pakistan with the pathetic West Indies. I mean on their day they can be decent but only Taylor and Holder are good. India and Pakistan are so much more consistent it aint funny. West Indies are minnow level bowlers atm.

    42nd Match - Ireland v Pakistan (15th March)

    Tbf I never said Pak were favourites. Aussie are definitely clear favourites. I was just putting Paks strengths out there and just showing some rationale to how they could do it. Their batting is just to poor at the moment to give them more than a slight chance. Umar Akmal does like playing them...

    42nd Match - Ireland v Pakistan (15th March)

    5th bowling options are huge especially if a quality bowler like Starc has an off day Afridi is a miles better option than Maxwell/Watto

    42nd Match - Ireland v Pakistan (15th March)

    So do South Africa and look what happened to them. Maxwell has the ability to take a game away quickly getting him easily will be a good bonus. Aussie bat deep but they have a lot of stroke makers who go hard. They aren't the most reliable batsman around. Clarke and Watto aside that is or...

    5th bowling option is miles better

    42nd Match - Ireland v Pakistan (15th March)

    The thing with this Pak attack is they have legit bowlers with no freebies. Maxwell won't fire against pak I can't see it. He is a spin basher and Pakistan quick bowlers all hit 140+. I do think the batting may struggle but the bowlers wont lose the game if they can post a decent total.

    42nd Match - Ireland v Pakistan (15th March)

    A bloke hit a 6 and was given out. That is 100x worse

    42nd Match - Ireland v Pakistan (15th March)

    Ireland don't get a free ride, I reckon Zims got robbed against them and UAE to a lesser degree. Irelands bowling isn't worthy of a QF, Aussie will absolutely annihilate them. Prove me wrong Ireland but I want Pakistan to win and KOB to get a ton. He's been getting close almost every game. If...

    42nd Match - Ireland v Pakistan (15th March)

    Ireland have a pretty lame attack. Should be easy for even Pak

    Starc Boult Shami Probably Southee but very close with Morkel

    The Best Team from the Group Stage

    The Boult was for Athlai who can't go past his fanboyism The Shami part was for you. You said that a fair minded person couldn't argue for Shami over Southee. Southee is getting a bit too much love I reckon, he hasn't been consistent enough. 1 game can't put you in a tournament team. Shami...

    The Best Team from the Group Stage

    Only the most delusional Southee fans would put him above Boult. Southee has had 1 amazing game, 2 good games and 3 below par games. Shami has been better than good for 5 straight games. Statistics back it up as well, he has been the more consistent bowler. The eyes sometimes will only see...

    41st Match - United Arab Emirates v West Indies (15th March)

    Good to see my boy Javed back to business, didn't see the innings but he must have been awesome. The bloke doesn't have huge talent but he's got ice in his veins. He only bowls 125-130 usually but when the games on the line and he's deep in his final over he can push 138+ even in to the 140s...

    Shami is as quick as ever, moves the ball enough. He's improved.

    The Best Team from the Group Stage

    Take the Southee pjs off Athlai. The ball was not singing for Southee in that game at all. The ball he got Finch with was good apart from that nahh he was not good at all. His first over was the worst over in the history of cricket. I was thinking he had set the tone for one of our most...

    The Best Team from the Group Stage

    Boult would still be a good bowler without Southee he's class. It doesn't matter how good Southee can or could be. This world cup he started with a hiss and a roar and now he looks like he's trying to bowl the magic ball every ball and it hasn't been working for him, he's been average lately...

    The Best Team from the Group Stage

    We are talking about the world cup so far and Boult has been excellent every game. Southee if we are being honest has been below par the last 3 games. If we are talking best single game Southee's 7 is probably the best followed closely by Starc. The only game Boult wasn't excellent up front...
