Are you Nostradamus?
14-3 
Handscomb looked like he was shitting himself the entire time.

Don't worry, they will. 50 over cricket is statistically his worst format...
feck off.
Carnage here. This is always why secretly I like bowling first. I know that you're more likely to win batting first, but its hard to win the game in the first hour batting, but you can get fecking close bowling.
Imagine him with a shiny red Duke moving all over the place.
This line/length discipline from England has been outstanding.
It's okay. After reading your posts in this thread and gauging your intelligence, it'd be wrong of me to take offence to your posts
I'm super intelligent but thanks for checking! I just like to give people back as good as they get and some of the absolute drivel I read yesterday about the India match and the team in general could not go unanswered.
Good start by England isn't it?
Bloody hell. the helmet just came off.
Jesus Christ... Archer is a machine.
Fancy being so cool when getting hit by a 90mph bouncer that you can catch your helmet when it gets ripped off.
Another low scoring semifinal.
I know what you mean. We just have to keep telling ourselves no matter how good the start is a. a couple of partnerships could get the Aussies to a decent score and b. Starc, Cummins and Behrendorff could also raise hell on this wicket.
Good job catching the helmet too.. could have hit the stumps
Getting a bit hairy this. Run rate creeping up towards 2.5 an over.
Stoinis hasn't shown he can turn games around by himself and Maxwell is in T20 mode this WC. Get Smith and Carey before 120, and Australia will be in deep deep trouble.
I just never trust anything with England... if we bowl them out for 100 I can imagine we'll be struggling too.
Exactly right.
Haven't really seen Australia struggle with chin music like this before.
yay a boundary
Though I hate their whining, I wouldn't mind England winning the WC, prefer NZ but then second is England.
England NZ final would be perfect.

You guys fecking need to chill ffs.
Also Carey for the breakout star of the tournament award?
Aus can be 10-5 and still reach 250.
And Starc with that new ball will be brutal.
England definitely on top here.. obviously.. but Aus are the best side to handle a situation like this.

that's quite Trumpian but given your posts here, not surprising.
It's not over until it over (Vs the Aussies)
DK fell early and we sent Pandya ahead of Dhoni. But after Handscomb's wicket, Carey walks out ahead of Maxwell.
That might just be the difference.

Big partnership now.
Smith is Smith and Carey looks a proper player.
Break it early please.

Despite the positive start, can still see the Aussies scoring about 220-250...
Then bowling us out for about 150

Empty seats because Indians bought up loads of tickets just in case. Could be a lot of empty seats in the final.
Carey looks like Ray Liotta
On the plus side, might be pretty easy to pick up resale tickets for the final
Ffs
Sangakkara could be the new Richie Benaud.
He's brilliant.

I'd be generally interested in knowing why you are having such a pop - I can only assume it's because I had the audacity to disagree with you or challenge what in my opinion (and remember that's what this forum is about) were some very arrogant and poor loser posts from some Indian fans.
England get slaughtered for being perceived as arrogant so why shouldn't we pick up on it with other nations?
Let me know if there's any words up there you're struggling with and I'll happily pop back and help out.
This is the only acceptable mood. I refuse to engage with any optimism.Despite the positive start, can still see the Aussies scoring about 220-250...

We are going to lose this match and be sufficiently mentally scarred that the rest of our summer is just crying as Australians dominate.
Now that we're out of the tournament, I can laugh at stuff like this.
Fearful hope. Afraid of believing because you don't want your hearts broken.
Tough ask to come in and perform straight away in a semi.14-3
Handscomb looked like he was shitting himself the entire time.
Maxwell to score a blinder today...he is due..
I thought it was madness yeah.
Asking a lad to make his debut in a WC semi final, at a ground where Aussies have generally struggled badly for a generation.
Asking for trouble.
Australia going to show us how it's done at 15 for 3..
