Mens ICC Cricket World Cup, India 2023.

[Brodlach]

That result really helps the aussies out and probably makes them favorites for that fourth spot with a chance of taking third as well.

They need to somehow get to 3rd to avoid semi final against India, be a potentially easier semi against NZ.

Does it really matter? We’ll need to beat the Indians to win the cup regardless of when we play them.

The shaggers have had a very soft draw and the Saffers are incredibly inconsistent, no one else is making the 4, India are head and shoulders above any of the other 3.

I love ODI’s, they have a great mixture of tactics, patience and the game can ebb and flow continuously throughout, obviously loved it when it came on after the news as a kid but how it has revolutionised through the likes of Kaluwitharana in the early stages to what we see now is very entertaining.

Not if we play NZ and India lose their SF

The Aussies need as much as they can get plus bowling first hasn't been working and although its not real hot in Delhi today you still don't want to field in the hottest part of the day (eg England).

Smith to tonne up.

Australian media tomorrow ‘Smith is back’ ‘Smudge should be captain’ blah blah blah.

He’s playing against the Netherlands.

With respect to the Dutch he should be scoring runs against them and he needs to because he's been struggling for runs.

And yeah I hate the 'Smith should be captain' narrative being rolled out when he performs or when Cummins is struggling a bit.

[carey]

Well he just did his best to run Warmer out.

I’d love a double play here, I can’t stand either of these pricks

[Armchair expert]

Correct decision

Clearly out

Umpire not 100% sure because it went quick and was a sharp catch? Nice grab
