hat-trick from Finn but isn't it too little too late?
ICC Cricket World Cup 2015
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
World cup 2011, 300 breached 15 times, only thrice in games between the top 8 nations.
World cup 2015, 300 breached twice in 3 innings of 2 games between 4 of the top 8 nations.
Indian subcontinent flat pitches >> flat pitches in the Australian continent.

Great batting by maxy, finch and bailey
Who goes out when Clarke comes back? Bailey? Marsh?
On current form, Watson.
Tbf we knew that already, based on the test series pitches!World cup 2011, 300 breached 15 times, only thrice in games between the top 8 nations.

@Samid you can have threadmarks as 'day 1', 'day 2' maybe instead of separate match with 2 matches in a day on so many days. Except India-Pak which can have its own threadmark
Yeah I can fix that.
Argh. This match times are going to be problem.
Ali is like any other subcontinent batsman, clueless against the short ball.
Mitchell Johnson should really be taking new ball.
Is this the worst English team ever?
Hasn't every England team after the '92 WC been the worst English team ever?
Forgot about him. He should be out, looks disinterested with things these days.
I know. It's just that the subcontinental pitches get blamed for high scores and destroying cricket when it is the same almost everywhere now. No one bothers when SA scores 400+ against the Windies, but it is ridiculed when India does it at home.

England 
Horrible batting.
Horrible batting.If only they had a player like Kevin Pietersen.England
Or Ben Stokes or there was the guy who did great in the big bash.
Australia are great. With their lineup they basically have the license to go for broke all the way through and that's without Faulkner playing.
There isn't much between Stokes and Woakes tbf
England should had batted first after winning the toss,poor decision i would say.
Even Harry Kane would struggle to save us today
Very poor. They should have taken the initiative and tried to put Australia under pressure.
Australia are world class though, always have someone to step up to the plate.
Just a couple of letters.
Brad Haddin turns into a beast against England.
There are few greater joys then cricket at the g
England doesn't have batsmen to chase the game against Australia,its simple as that.
Batting first would've gave them respectable total and chasing under light,first match of world cup would have put Aussie under some pressure.
Another duck for Morgan.Such a poor attempt.
They do, he just wasn't selected.
I hate to say it but that "Mauka" commercial is just tempting fate. Will bite us in the arse
Will England make 100?
Oh boy, at this rate England will ve hard pressed to reach two hundred.
Please don't Evanize this thread with your KP nonsense. Sincere request.
Why did England make Morgan Captin he was in no form at the time and gone from Shit to OMFG how is he even a cricketer
They just keep getting worse and worse. Didn't think they could top the last World T20 with Bresnan, Bopara, Jordan, Lumb and fecking Dernbach but somehow they've proved me wrong.
That's a fair point actually.
Taylor is class. He's impressive every time I see him.
Shame the speedometer isn't on show after every delivery. I'm a big speed watcher.
BBC news app had a news article on the hat-trick! Has to be one of the most pointless hat-tricks ever.
What a shambles. We'll still get through to the quarter-finals though having beat none of the big teams. The quarter's are our forte, no matter which sport.
Just saw a stat on the BBC website about the highest scores England have chased in ODIs.. Reading that you get a feeling they would have been better off batting first than chasing a total..
Australia vs South Africa final with SA winning it would be awesome.. NZ would be the dark horses for sure in this world cup.
