Cricket World Cup (50 Overs)

[MrB]

Ok, I'll let them off then. Thought it was a bit harsh!

 

[MrB]

Review.....

 

[Pubey]

yes Pollard out!!!!!!!!

 

[number11]

wicket. Now into the tail. Though we were also into Bangladesh's tail and they put on over 50......

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

wicket. Now into the tail. Though we were also into Bangladesh's tail and they put on over 50......

Exactly. Now is the time to attack.

Get the field up, cut off the singles and get people in catching positions.

 

[number11]

Maybe not attack with Tremlett though....he is being slaughtered, but then he was never really the type that you would think suited the sub-continent.....

 

[Jonny_Stokes]

Complete clusterf*** of a World Cup yet again. Ridiculous scheduling partly to blame, along with a lack of professionalism and ability.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

223/9, Swann with 2 wickets in 3 balls :happy:

 

[Jonny_Stokes]

If we win this, I'm claiming it :winking:

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

RUN OUT !!!!!!

We win by 18 runs

 

[number11]

WOW! Last 4 wickets for 3 runs! Well done Swann, Ravi and Tredwell!

 

[Pubey]

****ing outrageous, how the **** have we done that??!

 

[BLUEBLOOD]

Jeez that was nerve-shredding

Oh well we'll probably get the convicts next and they'll beat us by about 200 runs i imagine**


** though more likely is the Windies will beat India and Blangladesh South Africa and we'll be homeward bound after all

 

[Grayson]

Brilliant game. Supposed to be finishing this research study for tomorrow lunchtime and have been very unproductive in the last hour!

 

[number11]

So moving onwards, Shazad is out of the tournament.....hopefully we can call up someone else....so do we go for another seamer or bring in Rashid as leggies are doing well at this world cup.....

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Get in!

I suppose England should have been favourites in a close situation purely because we're that much more experienced than everyone else in world cricket at it - be it tight ODI games or hanging on with one wicket remaining in tests.

If it were down to me I'd go for Rashid, but I reckon they'll opt for Plunkett.

 

[number11]

I thought Woakes would be first in line seamer. Though neither he nor Plunkett will strike fear into the other sides.

I didn't realise we were so good at cricket we can get runs taken off:

BBC

The Windies were 226-6, chasing 243, but were remarkably bowled out for 225 as England kept alive their hopes of reaching the World Cup Super Eights.

We took the last 4 wickets for -1 run. Did we really do that, or did the Windies run backwards?

 

[BLUEBLOOD]

Good to see tenDo knock another century in against the potato chuckers, looks in vain though as Ireland appear to be cruising it
