    Are Uruguay the hardest team to watch in these finals.
    All the talent they have up front but their football is awful, watch them go on and win it.
    Come on Saudi and cause an upset second half

    Just about, summed up well at half time as a team who always play to the same game plan, with two world class CD's they expect a clean sheet knowing one of the two strikers will nick a goal, awful to watch and to play against I would imagine.

    Not often Joe Root fails to come up with the goods but as was said, he was not quite the man to come on at the death, when two big hitters were still available, I think Plunket or Willey might have got us to the magical 500 who knows.

    Argentina are always worth a watch, there's always some sort of entertainment.

    Do we not need Croatia n Iceland to just play out a draw? That would put both of them on 5 points meaning the Argies cannot catch either.

    That works too but rather the Argies get turned over so they're embarrassed
