I f*cking hate India.

Anyway, the final has two of the strongest teams int the tournament, can't argue with that really.

I didn't have a problem with them at all until one unfortunate event at The Oval in the ICC Trophy.

Surprise package of the tournament for me is Afghanistan. To get to a semi is amazing (that’s what she said).

Special mention to the USA team also, they do have a good set of Indians playing for them though.

Player of the the tournament will be decided for me after the final.

India were my pick to win the Final, never once thought Australia would as my thoughts on a few off them is they too sure of themselves ,it was always going to back fire ,and it did when they chose to let AFGHANISTAN bat first after winning the toss on a wicket no one has won on after batting second this tournament . WAS it Afghanistan or Indias neighbours.

Yes India look the part, disappointed as ever with Pakistan in tournament
Did not realise Afghan coach is Trott, wonder if he will be head hunted after the expected cull
Was not sure Rob Key was the right man, too safe a chance to run the game in all formats
Loved him as commentator but different ball game selector
Still hindsight wonderful thing to possess for us fans

Half baked hit and run tournament is nearly over, can’t wait for some real Test cricket.

Brings in much needed funding to the sport
Alas only a few of us appreciate the long game and unless it’s Australia hardly anyone shows an interest
India, Pakistan, Bangladesh bring in support otherwise it would be dead against those countries for crowds

England v Australia is all that matters DS, but seriously walking into Lords on Test match day against any country is just magic,long live Test cricket.

The attendances out here have been poor, even for the semi-final. That said whoever decided on choosing the BLCA in Trinidad needs their head looking at.

Looked good under lights though

Good call about Trott. He has done great work with them tbh.

I may not have many agree with me but Arshdeep Singh (think that’s right spelling) was player for the tournament for me. Great bowling stats for this type of format and was strong in every match.

Decent tournament and June in whole this year greta month for sports. We have this T20 , Tennis at queens, World Cup of darts and players championship, grand prix and the euros and also snooker has starred again. :)

Going to be a great read then you mentioned snooker

You are you right but Afghan Farooqi for me,top wicket taker in a side still finding their feet on the big stage
Felt for them in semi final, wicket appalling and I read if five day game it would have been called off.
