Really enjoyed SA beating India today. I can’t stand India as a cricketing nation.

They’re very scouse-like and have several high profile tossers in their side, Kohli being the ring leader.

Was a very decent game and Miller saw it through in style.

Sure I've read more than once that Kohli is an okay fella, away from the cricket pitch. Totally different once he steps across the boundary rope, though.
 
England will go out and that loss to Ireland will be haunt them. Don't think we'll beat NZ, but even if we do, it'll come down to run rate and with the Aussies playing Ireland and Afghanistan they'll get there.
DLS is outdated because I think England would've beat Ireland had it reached a conclusion with Livi and Mo at the crease.
However, to be behind on DLS when we knew there was weather about is seriously unprofessional.
 
Aussies going to get a score here that Ireland won’t reach they’ll also getting there run rate in the + England need to win our next two games well
 
Australia can consider themselves fortunate that they probably won’t have any washouts against the lesser ranked sides.

England could do with Ireland making this respectable.
 
England still have a decent NRR advantage,

In what fantasy world does the MCG have a roof?
 
NRR not massively boosted in the end. Weather could still play a part but ultimately we just need to beat NZ regardless now. Their run rate is worth an extra point at the moment, so a huge win to drag them back into the equation would be nice but they should be fine from their current position.

England have the advantage of knowing what we need against Sri Lanka if we do beat NZ. We play Saturday after the Aussies play Afghanistan. The Aussies would have preferred to bowl first then obliterate the target, but it doesn't always work out that way. I still think England will get through from here, but I don't think we'll win it. South Africa are looking very good on the other side of the draw. I wouldn't be surprised to see a SA v India final.
