Australia win by 6 wickets. Good job by Watto to tough it out and see us to victory, 66 not out. Smith with 65 and Maxwell 44 not out.

Hate to say but yes great stuff from Shane, rode his luck, showed his experience and stood up when it counted. We've been needing him to do that.

Horrible fielding by Pakistan really let them down. Catches win matches!

Hazelwood named man of the match for his four wickets.

Of course they want to sanction them. The ICC is run by India. The next opponent, India.

Great hour of play last night. Livened up an otherwise dull game.

One of the best contests between a bowler and batsmen for sometime. This is what the game needs so it wont die and the ICC charge them......

How good was Riaz last night was great watching that, reminiscent of Johnson last year in the ashes! If only Riaz had some fielders that could catch he might have been able to win that for them as im not sure maxwell and co in the middle order would of been able to see of bowling like that. When Pakis get Irfan, Junaid Khan and young Amir back from his ban that's one hell of a fast bowling line up to go with Riaz.

Also hats off to Watto and smith, I thought Smith was a class above and the one that just looked really good against Riaz all the way through but Watson showed a lot of guts and batted beautifuly in the end.

The players both breached the code of conduct. Im not sure staring or blowing someone a kiss is an issue but apparently it is.

Amazing what is and isnt acceptable to the ICC.

If India spent just one one hundredth of there time and effort on the millions that live in poverty in their country and took some of their exorbitant expenditure and put it to better use than trying to dictate and control cricket the world would be a better place.

I can handle losing the World Cup to any opponent except that bunch of flogs.

New Zealand post a massive 6/393 from their 50 overs. Guptill carries his bat through the innings, scoring 237 off 163 balls. He blazed 24 boundaries and 11 sixes.

Most costly dropped catch for runs scored post drop in the history of one day cricket :shock:

A certain Saffer may have dropped a more important one though ;)

Most Boringest World Cup in history. All 4 Quarter Finals one sided affairs.
Australia will get beaten when they play a team that hold their catches.
Windies would be a decent team if they got a coach that could put a brain in the head of some of their players.
Also a decent spinner wouldn't go astray. What happened to Sunil Narine ?

Think Narine has some action issues.
