What a day so far for Ireland! They have South Africa on the ropes at 62/5 - Would love to see them pull off a win! I always was a keen England fan but I really have to support my home country when they are in the competition. Usually they don't get this far! Come on lads

Shame these games don't actually count cos they've got them 63/7 now!
Meanwhile England are 123-3 against Bermuda Pietersen and collingwood in atm.

Sky coverage is pretty good. England games would be on in most pubs.

Def not a bad display from the Irish lads but it kind of got away from them in the end with a big partnership. They still can do it as long as their top few batsmen hang around which is unlikely. 32-1 in reply so far!

I dont like watching cricket in the pub either ... 6hour games = no money left at the end of the Cup
Why on earth would a massive event like this not be on the Normo channels !

Because our Government has decided that Cricket isn't important enough to be classed as a Catagory A sport and so doesn't have to be shown live on terrestial.

Yep, SA recovered well at the end and I think they will probably win it from here. Ireland will take away some confidence though, especially Langford-Smith who bowled both de Villiers and Kallis! They are not out of it yet though, currently 57/2 (14.0 ov) and well in the game. If they win this it will be a massive boost for them.
Bermuda struggling at 40-7. Game was over along time ago.

Aye the cricket world cup is a category B event meaning that live coverage can be on Pay TV as long as they allow terrestrial to screen highlights.Alibaba99 said:
Seems odd when the Football world cup is a category A event and cricket is meant to be our second sport.
Then again those lists don't mean a lot the ECB got England test matches taken off the category A to category B list then flogged them to Sky!!
Soldato
Bermuda 45 all out, unable to put up any sort of a game really.
Ireland however are still in there with a chance against SA, 70/3 at the moment. Come on Ireland!
