World Cup cricket

Another wicket for Ferguson. 217/9

India all out for 221 New Zealand win by 18 runs.

Great game. Cant see NZ having enough but you never know.

4.7 million beats 1.3 billion, ewans argument decimated

Doubt there is a country in any sport that has the weight of numbers and money that India has over all the rest. Ewan really does need to get on this job.

I thought there might be a sting in new Zealand. They are a really likeable side. The captain is a thoroughly decent sort and one of the greatest world cup performers in the history of the game given the context. He quietly shook bairstows hand in the last game when bairstow was out having made a century.
I wanted the Indians to win the WC, as they are also thoroughly likeable, but it’s advantage to those hateful aussie cheats and their sandpaper.

There will be a few final tickets up on eBay tonight.

I wonder are there Indian equivalents of the Munster fans who wear their Munster jerseys to finals they are not in.

Straya crumbling 10-2

Great start for England getting both openers out cheaply. Warner can head into town for a few hours with his sandpaper to the Walkabout Bar.

14/3 Hanscomb gone.

Scenes…

NZ name is on trophy now

Come on England, Wales and Ireland

Two quick wickets for England. Alex Carey to break a 100 run partnership and Marcus Stonis for a second ball duck. 117/5.

Pathetic stuff from the cheating bastards 166/7 with only smith offering resistance

166/7.

Watching a terrific spell by Archer here.

Outstanding spell from the barbadian

Lets see what total they get to. New Zealand successfully defended 239/8 yesterday. They’ll get to that if Smith survives.

They wont bat out 50

Plunkett’s just bowled a maiden to Starc. :joy:

We are going to score 213…Its a significant score in a wc semi final for us in England.
