2023 Cricket World Cup - Other Matches

Not a real world cup without a good upset. Glad we're not on the receiving end of it (yet).
Everyone has played three games now, and us and India are the only unbeaten sides left. We play Afghanistan tonight, should be another win but we need to be wary of both their top order and their spinners.

It looks like theres a split with the teams, 4 are likely to be bottom (even allowing for the odd upset) SL, Ban, Neth and Afg.
That leaves the other 6 teams fighting for 4 spots which makes these upsets so important. England and now SA losing to teams they should have beaten gives the likes of us a bigger breakAlso its misleading to see OZ as off the pace, they started with a much tougher draw then us.
After tonights game it gets real for us and we can easily end up outside the top 4. -
As bad as England are, the organising of this tournament is a disgrace. Heard on Wisden Cricket Pod that England vs India is in 12 days and it is STILL not possible to buy a ticket! Official website says ‘they’re coming soon’. No wonder there are no travelling fans (and almost no fans at other games not involving India)
No opening ceremony before the first game of the tournament, but one before the India vs Pakistan game that they realise they don’t have the song rights to broadcast so only show it for the fans in the stadium. Joke

Cricket will not miss David Warner, at all. And if he gets a commentary gig, it will result in me switching the channel i watch (fuck i hope he ends up on Fox Sports and not Ch7). It's bad enough i have to hear from his vapid wife.
Look at his latest "outburst". Gets given out on an LBW, reviews, and stays out because it's clipping the wickets. Not the one you should be kicking off over David, that's hardly a howler. This whole 12-month retirement party you've planned for yourself isn't going well is it?
His big idea is umpire stats being shown on the screen. I'm battling to follow his point actually, but i guess he wants the public to know who has given him out the most? I dunno, it's a barely coherent point.
In short, fuck off David.

Least with how shit his form is we wont have to watch him jumping up waving his bat like hes just scored the winning runs in a WC Final every time he scores a 100.

He’s bad but he’s no Shane Watson….

I'm not saying it was a bad review, the fact it was back to umpire's call means it was 1cm from being a good review.
but the bitching and moaning about a ball that would have hit the stumps just screams of a bloke under pressure

Australia getting the moon out

Quite the slaughter but obviously need to see the other side bat.
Where the fuck was this team in the first 2 games?

I was just about to write that 400 was on for the Aussies and then Marsh goes out to an excellent catch and then Big Show goes next ball.
Afridi on a hat trick

yeah but 367 looks solid, just depends on how much of a road the pitch really is..Pakistan doing ok in the chase but way too early to suggest they can stay in this fight. 94/0 15ov
the beauty of this tournament as we all said earlier..is that it is so long you can play your into form..perhaps a turning point for Australia

yep even getting a mention in the match thread
Nayam: "@Dave H, completely agree with you. The ticketing system for this wc has been a complete shambles. And due to this the lack of travelling fans has really robbed this wc of the carnival atmosphere a tournament of a magnitude of a wc deserves."
