worthy of a thread I thought. 

The Saffers are goneski.
The windies looked pretty good against the Aussies last night but threw it away with some silly batting late... they look to be on the rise as a team again though. 
My money is still on the Indians to win it. 
+1 -1

    I reckon the Aussies with Smith&Warner back can give it a shake

    Got a lot more time for V.Kohli after his attempt at trying to get the crowd to stop booing Smith at the weekend. Good sportmanship

    The Pakis are having a real off night in the field or they have backed the Aussies

    Should have put up 350+ with that start.
    Won't do the job against the better teams.

    We've beat the world power that is Afghanistan, 1980's power West Indies, and Pakistan who are on a 20 match losing streak (or thereabouts).

    Pakistan beat England who started out favourites to win the WC last Monday

    and the windies should have beaten us if they played sensibly... which they didnt.

    Except for the Poms when I backed them for what I thought would be a very easy earn they had won 22 straight in UK chasing a target prior to that,
    Am on the Aussies to win need to find another cog but still think they can.

    Big game Aussies v England tonight...
    Poms have dropped a couple they shouldnt have, particularly against sri lanka.
  • spinkingspinking    3,738 posts
    Aussies flog the old enemy and should have really won by more , but I am sure they would be upbeat about the win

    How did Finch get POTM ?
    A pedestrian 100 taking up half an innings and getting out immediately to spark a collapse - vs Behrendorff 5 wickets in only 10 overs. Even Starc’s 4 arguably a better performance.

    can you believe england were $1.63 at the innings changeover... Aussies $2.25.....
    that was insanity. I know we should have scored 320... but you dont set your market based on the fact we didnt score as many as we should have.... we still had 285 on the board on a wicket that was doing plenty.. 
    madness.

    I said that to the missus and backed us accordingly. Fell asleep watching it, woke up, the poms were about 6/150 I think.... fell back to sleep grinning.

    So you loaded up on the $2.25 Diva ?

    The left arm quicks delivered a couple of Jaffas to Vince and Stokes and co....absolute quality fast bowling. Think the balance is better as Zampa and Coulter Nile are good shield players at this point in time.....Behrendorf as a new ball bowler is capable of delivering impossible to play balls, as does Starc, was a pleasure to watch.
