Losing 4 games and qualifying still you need results like this ending with with an Aussie win, teams taking points of good teams to cancel each other out! Aussies got no chance wining this now!

India and New Zealand for me will qualify south Africa are on there way too! Pakistan the wild card! It's going to be good to watch when everyone played 5/6 games

ODIs are unpredictable though. Anyone can beat anyone else on the day.

India look very strong. The rest have stronger and weaker points. Let’s see what the table looks like after 6 games. We’ll have a clearer picture then.

The Aussies have played 2 of the hardest games first up. They still have SL, Bangladesh, NL and AFG to play, which they should win.

Their results in the games against ENG, PKN and NZ will seal their fate. Win 2 out of 3 of those and they will be close to qualifying.

Few gym holdalls full of cash for Aussie batsman.

Hard to tell at this stage. Our performance against NZ isn't reflective of either team. NZ certainly aren't miles better than us. We'll grow into the tournament. Australia certainly look too lightweight with the bat though.

I'd guess India, SA, NZ and England as the final 4 - but pre-tournament I had Australia and Pakistan in there so that could change again in a week!

Not sure that should have given out, but unlucky!

Give your head a wobble, it's Australia therefore it's out!

Can't believe that less than 20 overs in Australia have had to go into NRR territory.

Absolutely plumb.

Whilst you’d still expect Australia to win, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh might be tough games if they’re playing on slow surfaces.

I think it will be India, New Zealand, South Africa and one from England, Pakistan and Australia in the top four.
