So it’s looking like Australia will play the winner of Pakistan vs Ireland this Sunday at Adelaide oval. That’s some handy practice being able to play at Adelaide oval before the quarter final.

You reckon, Paki's made us look 2nd rate about 6 months ago, they are the most unpredictable team in the comp, it all depends on where they put their money.

When was the last time England were the undisputed best team in world cricket?

Probably when they scored 1 for a million against us a few years back over here.

2 years ago. Beating Australia 3-Nil to continue to hold the Ashes from 2009 till 2013 I think???? From Memory end of 2012 beat SA then start of 2013 beat Australia 3-nil (Could be the other way around tho I cant remember) But then they some got depressed, some Run a muck and some got to mouthy and its all fallen apart ever since.

Will be a long long time before England hold them again I think and be anywhere near the top 3 let alone ranked number 1.......

Basically thats it. The side fell apart and imploded. Now this is the implosion after period. Which is a bit messy.

Hey Jim,

"Absolutely pathetic shot by the hack!"

Does this quote sound familiar when it comes to talking about Maxwell?

I would have to say that he would have to be one of the most dangerous middle order batsman going around in the World Cup atm. So you call him a hack??? I call him "One of the best one day cricket players going around". GO MAXWELL

Im not sure what you mean, im just saying it will be handy practice to play a match at Adelaide oval 5 days before you play a quarter final against Australia at Adelaide oval. I agree Pakistan can be unpredictable they’ve shown that already with their win over South Africa . I just want a good match to watch at Adelaide oval next Friday.

Bangas a huge chance against the Kiwis, would change the quarters fairly drastically

Just got Taylor out after his failed reviewed.

NZ are 5 down needing 66 from 48.
Bangladesh need to get rid of Corey Anderson quickly.

Southee hits a six then 4 to win it. Streaky batting from Vettori guiding NZ home. Bangers tatics were outstanding until the last over, should of brought a quick back on and not bowl a spinner!

Well done Bangladesh, they've played extremely well this WC. For me, it proves that we need to keep the 'minnows' in the World cup to get exposure against better opposition for future world cups.

BTW, the Banga bloke that got 128 should've got MOTM for mine.

Hopefully, this is their turning point in world cricket. With their population they should be able to have sustained success.
