ICC Cricket World Cup 2019

[DOTA]

Thinking more about the way the weather has affected this tournament and I think there's truth to it. This entire day should be replayed. It was not at all fair on England to delay the start.

 

[zing]

CDG has been excellent today. Has he been this good all tournament?

Getting your 5th bowler out by 25 overs is going to be incredible for them.. like @crappycraperson said, santner may be less effective with the two left handed players

 

[harshad]

England got this

 

[TheGame]

How are England struggling against this pub bowler

Did the same with Stoinis in the first Australia match. It is swinging but should be seeing him off really considering his lack of pace.

 

[TheGame]

England got this

Keep going with the jinxing.

 

[FlawlessThaw]

England got this

Struggling a dibby dobbler suggests otherwise

 

[TheGame]

NZ left handers did well so hopefully these two can get a partnership going.

 

[Samid]

Stokes is a fighter. Probably the best player to have out there in a situation like this.

 

[fergies coat]

This isn’t over yet. Chasing in a World Cup final is massive pressure. All it takes is a couple of early wickets.

I was right and everyone else was wrong.

 

[FlawlessThaw]

I was right and everyone else was wrong.

Heh I think most people who were saying it was over were the jinx experts.


All English fans have generally been here before.

 

[ha_rooney]

Huge moment this

 

[Samid]

Take a bow Fergie

 

[NinjaFletch]

Braindead batting.

 

[ha_rooney]

Brilliant catch!!

 

[crappycraperson]

Wow goner

 

[zing]

Fergie time

 

[Snowjoe]

Could really do with a Buttler special here. Not seen it yet.

 

[Ronaldo's ego]

You beauty

 

[Ether]

feck off Morgan

 

[Gandalf Greyhame]

When you're naming and shaming, put my name in. This is terrible from England and I genuinely didn't expect that score.

 

[crappycraperson]

Eng will have to bat exceptionally well to win this now.

 

[FlawlessThaw]

Yeah it’s over, 1 more wicket and NZ are into the tail

 

[Krovv]

If England lose today, the world really should stop calling Saffers chokers. England have been choking at the World Cup since 1975.

 

[Cloud7]

Stokes and Buttler. This is it right here. This partnership is the game.

 

[Patrick08]

Huge moment.

 

[Dan_F]

From all the knee jerk opinions I’ve seen today in this and the tennis threads...it’s fair to say this is very close to being done now.

 

[Ether]

Ian Ward must feel like a mug, trying to convince all the viewers during the break that this would be a simple chase

 

[fergies coat]

New Zealand are like a Jose Mourinho team.

 

[TheGame]

From all the knee jerk opinions I’ve seen today in this and the tennis threads...it’s fair to say this is very close to being done now.

Some knee jerk opinions are not from England fans and are not to be taken seriously.

 

[2mufc0]

Ffs

 

[Balljy]

Would love to see Buttler come in under a bit of pressure and play a blinder.

Well, this is the only way we're going to win now.

 

[TheGame]

This is going to be tough. The run rate is still fine though it’s about keeping the scoreboard ticking over.

 

[Utd heap]

Well, this is the only way we're going to win now.

I wanted him at 150, not now!

 

[rpitchfo]

This is a shambles. Next wicket decides the game

 

[Interval]

New Zealand have been incredible with the ball. Even better than the semis

 

[sammsky1]

Complete disbelief and bemusement amongst all here right now.

Am at mid wicket so can’t see ball movement.

Can someone please explain to me what voodoo NZ bowlers have over England today?

 

[Spoony]

New Zealand should win this.

 

[crappycraperson]

Williamson should bring on Santner against Butler.

 

[Grinner]

At least Indians can take comfort in the fact that they lost to the two best teams.

 

[zing]

Buttler looks in fine touch.
