Bob Woolmers was murdered according to the police. They have turned the inquiry into a murder investigation.

All of the pakistani team have been fingerprinted but none have been arrested yet.

Apparently it could have required more then one man to kill him. All very worrying really. Cricket isn't worth murdering over.

Poor fielding is gonna cost India. Thats like 40 runs in the last 4 overs

Psycho Ned · 23 Mar 2007 at 18:43

Might be time to push the panic button for India here! Tendulkar out.

44-3 needing another 211.

Rosbif · 23 Mar 2007 at 19:54

Oh dear what a comedy of errors for India here ..

Psycho Ned · 23 Mar 2007 at 19:55

Looks like India following Pakistan on the next plane home :eek:

112-5 now still needing another 143 to win.

If Dravid gets out then they've had it.

Make that 6, dhoni goes 1st ball for a plum lbw

Dravid needs to up his RR. Its not Test cricket FFS. Anyhows, game over. Totally dismal performance from these idiots. Play for themselves rather than the team.

Tendulkar probably fantisizing about his red Ferrari back in India.

Unfortunately if some reports are to believed, some bookmakers believed money was worth murdering over

As for indias performance, dont get me started, same old problems for the indian side. Looks like its only a matter of time. Problems all round, same throughout this world cup, sloppy in the field, batsmen arent running well etc.

5ingh · 23 Mar 2007 at 21:09

All out for 185. They deserve everything they get when they return to India. :mad:

Rosbif · 23 Mar 2007 at 21:37

David Lloyd taking the absolute piddle during the commentary. I bet the odd hundred million viewers back in India didnt find it so funny.

Yas786 · 23 Mar 2007 at 23:38

Hmmm so india and pakistan both out, what a shocker :eek:

. Looks like we will all have to get behind the Bangladeshi's or Sri Lankans...would dearly love to see an asian team win and i dont mind the Sri Lankans as they look to be a very good team all round.

Although my money is still on the Aussies to win it though.

Yep same here. Rooting for Sri Lanka and England now!

CMON SOUTH AFRICA
Really hoping for a good game against the Aussies today!

cymatty · 24 Mar 2007 at 15:14

Hayden 100 from 66 balls, fastest ever in the world cup. :eek:

Psycho Ned · 24 Mar 2007 at 15:16

They're giving South Africa a right pasting atm! Anyone in any doubt that the Aussies are struggling after a few meaningless losses against us think again!

Kenya have won the toss against England and are batting first.

Freddies got off the pedalo and is back in the side along with Saj Mahmood replacing Dalrymple and Plunkett.

Mahmood better bowl better than his usual 6 runs an over crap.

Im hoping for a repeat of THAT legendary game between us and the aussies. God, Gibbs with 6 6'es in an over, I thought I was going to have a heart attack that last over!

Needed a six to make the record, and one ball left. And he only manages to go and do it. :eek:

Darg · 24 Mar 2007 at 16:31

Ireland f.t.w.!! :rolleyes:

Can anyone tell me who we'll be playing first when we get into the next stage? Or is that still being decided at this point?

Supercow · 24 Mar 2007 at 18:47

CMON, we've got a game on our hands!
