Cricket World Cup thread

What a day!! Cheering on Ireland here and thought the match was gone! Totally amazing performance - the win was so close but tie will do nicely! Nice knock from Bray too. Amazing finish and definitely finish of the series for sure!
 
LOL what a result for the Irish, have to say Zimbabwe threw it away...the game was theirs for the taking but they completely blew it.

Will be interesting to see the Taliban cricketers aka Pakistan:p fare against a pretty decent Irish team. More stupidity comes from the Pakistan camp with rumours that they are to only give conferences in Urdu lol. I swear the PCB are a bunch of ****'ing idiots at the best of times, its no wonder Pakistan cricket is in a whole heap of trouble...seems like if you have a beard like a taliban and have more religious skills rather than cricketing skills than your dead cert to get in the Pak team. In that case, best i grow my beard and pretend im really religious...perhaps i can get into the Pak team:p.

Sri Lanka are per usual steamrolled the Bermudans, but at least Leverock gave a nice jig/dance after getting a wicket:p. Looks like that fella is well on his way to becoming the star of this years WC:p.

Oh dear England already lose a wicket with the 2nd ball bowled in the match...12/1...not the best of starts but still early in the game.
 
Batsmen not sure of the swing at first but starting to look a bit more settled. Vaughans been careful, had a look and now seems to showing intent with 2 class shots. See how he goes,has a tendancy to get to 20 odd and get out.
 
Oh dear oh dear another one gone:(, this time Bell...looks like its another typical English batting collapse. Mind you dont know how the Kiwis will fare but doesnt look too good with Bell and Joyce already gone.

30/2 with Oram taking the 2nd wicket, that guy is on fire at the moment.
 
And there goes Vaughan with his usual 20 odd and out. 52/3. Was looking good with Pietersen too. Pietersens just played a great shot on the leg side.

58/3 with Vaughan playing an absolutely silly shot, no way he should have even went for that the way he did:p. Oh well now left to Pietersen and Collingwood to pile some runs on the board.
 
Daft shot that by Collingwood. I hate that shot so much, the amount of times England players get out to it. In comes Flintoff.

Now Pietersen just gives catching practice to them. Why did Collingwood have to give them a break through just before the drink break.

kiss the world cup goodbye more like - they may as well go home if they are gonna keep playing like this! Flintoff needs to sort out his batting. Is this the same guy that the world used to be scared of??
