Cricket World Cup 2019

Tbh mate...you need to have an IQ higher than a packet of Wotsits to get the game...let's just leave it at that

 

Good point.

 

^^Thinks you need an iq to hit a ball with a bat and run 20ft

For most of the day I was lamenting the slow pitch as it was ruining the spectacle for all the fly-by-night spectators who cricket was opening up to today. A 300+ game is not as entertaining to most proper fans but to people just watching as a one off match it's clearly more exciting to have the ball flying to the boundary. In the end the game turned into a belter that all could appreciate.

Williamson was the better captain though,overs 10-20 England allowed NZ to score too many easy runs whereas in the same period when England was batting NZ closed the scoring options beautifully. NZ deserved to win to day but we won so who cares. We are the best one day side in the world anyway so it's not like it's a total fluke.

 

3 Durham academy lads come through for England again (Stokes, Wood and Plunkett) - a special thanks to the ECB for shafting us as always.

 

stop wasting time and get sorting your new place out you lazy tosser

 

What DH said only with a couple of thundercunts thrown in

 

Whenever DH posts I have to have a little dig

 

You're a heathen mate, lets just leave it at that

 

A special thanks to Australia for injuring Dhawan for us and weakening our main opposition to win the world cup.

 

I think New Zealand were our main opposition mate

 

The only (incredibly minor) negative was that it had to be NZ losing. Imagine beating India or Aus on the last ball of a super over after the jammiest of jammy final overs to nick a tie. I’d probably have died.

 

All down to preference but the fact it was them makes me so much happier.

 

^^^^ had bad experience with kiwi fruit once

 

I’m sure there are far bigger fans of the sport on here than me but they seem a likeable side. Greater than the sum of the parts and all that.

 

Racist.

 

NZ in cricket (perhaps not rugby as I don't really follow the sport) must be the most likeable team for a neutral.

 

Sri Lanka!

Never had an issue with the Kiwi's though, at all. The only international team I've never actually seen in a test, it's just occured to me. (I'm not counting Bangladesh or Zimbabwe)

Watching the highlights again on C4!
