India - Australia will be a difficult watch.

Harder to miss when it’s in the International break too.

Not sure who to support. Hoping they both get disqualified and New Zealand get given the trophy.

What a crap tournament this has been.

It's gone on forever....two groups of five would have been much better.

Thursday will see the release of the 2024 County Championship fixtures. Will the World Cup be over by then? By then I mean next summer not next Thursday…

Don't put ideas in their heads. It's parky enough at the start of April.

Hope India win by 300 or 10 wickets

It's plenty warm enough in Spain. Use the Bullrings as stadiums.

They're the right size and have more than enough capacity for the average County game. Yes they're a bit (a lot) smaller but all those sixes will appear to the T20 crowd.

Probably more pensioners over there to go to a roses match too!

This for me — the World Cup final — is like watching a match between United and Liverpool and being asked who your favourite is.
I think I'll give it a miss.

Totally agree with you.
Way too many games resembling T20 matches, oh look another six.

Won't be allowed to happen but I can honestly say that I want Australia to win. About time the ICC grew some bollocks started doing what's best for the game rather than being the BCCI's bitch.

Aussies will be in the ear of the Indian batters few early wickets for the Aussies and pressure will be truly on India and be interesting how they respond!

They need to get there captain out and Kohli

Hate the convicts but that's some catch considering the circumstances
