Final - England v New Zealand

[Grasshopper]

Crowe would've done it. Just do it.

Yep, in the words of our Esteemed Leader St Jacinda of Stardust, "Let's do this!"

 

[Jezroy]

Less than 30 hours out. Weather looks good for Sunday.

It’s bloody exciting. Just hope if we’re outclassed, we scrap and make it hard for England. Don’t want to be a second Australia semi final for them. Want to be the Bangladesh to their NZ.

Kane should bowl himself first up imho.

 

[NZTailender]

besides cracking open broystow, will guptill come good? Earned himself a hell of a confidence booster if anything last game.

If he doesn't there really won't ever be a better time for him. In the last WC he basically peaked in one game. He hasn't in this one so far, so after that run out, you'd expect he'll come good here.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

Not asking for much from Guptill, but a repeat of that 189* in 2013 would be nice.

I definitely think the run out will have helped with his frame of mind, and could lead to a decent innings.

I want to be the SL of Eng lol

Only one day to go

Henry: 13 wickets at 27

Remarkable how he turned it around after tonning up in the warm up against WI

 

[Fuller Pilch]

I wonder if Roy was suffering from roid rage the other day? He hits it like a baseballer and it wouldn't make him the first drug using English opener.

I'm just kidding about the steroids , but he should've been banned for a couple of months for umpire abuse imo. One of the reasons I dislike football/soccer is the way the players talk to the refs. I'd hate to see that in cricket.

this will be a repeat of nz v england 2015 wc in spirit, as we will bat first this time not bowl first.

The real question here is; should I take Monday off work?

This match will start at 7:30pm my time and should finish around 3:30am.

Apparently scalpers are selling tickets for up to 15k GBP

Yes you should. I cleared/postponed all Monday morning meetings and advised my staff I won't be in until Monday arvo.

 

[James90]

Roy should have been banned for just being a knob.

Why put your final in jeopardy when England are cruising to victory chasing a low total? Bat**** crazy stuff.

 

[mr_mister]

Yes you should. I cleared/postponed all Monday morning meetings and advised my staff I won't be in until Monday arvo.

What do you do?

You've convinced me.

 

[Jezroy]

Dharmasena and Erasmus umpires.

Tucker 3rd and Alene Dar 4th.

Hopefully Dharmasena doesn’t give Roy out in dicey circumstances again.

 

[Flem274*]

dharmasena?

a wildcard enters the fray

chaotic neutral if there ever was one

You have to give credit to the selectors for sticking with him as well. Just like there's always a tendency to seek out the relative comfort of your ex, even though it's well confirmed shes let herself go and is slightly mad, it would have been easy to go back to Southee too.
