Yesterday's game was one that a lot of people were watching due to it deciding the last place in the semi's, but once South Africa held down England for such a low score I just turned off the tv as I knew what the result would have been.

Looking forward to the New Zealand vs Australia match in a few days.. that will be a matter of pride for that one.

And now Lara decides to retire. The Windes are going down the tube.

Do you think that the Windies can beat England today?

Or will Lara's last game be a loss for the Windies...?

yeah WI can beat England. And I hope they do, mainly cos I want Lara to go out on a high and for England's sake I want them to lose. They only way they can truly go forward is without any success for their administrators to cling on to (eg CB series after the Ashes shellacking)

They've started pretty well too.




Lara in at number 3, good to see. Was really hoping he'd do that rather than number 6.

Thanks Channel 9.

Cos no one would be interested in the Semi of the World Cup would they? No, lets put on the crappy late night quizshow instead, a sure fire winner


Especially considering that Australia has the biggest Sri Lankan and New Zealander populations outside of those countries (or so i've been told)

poor form

What do you guys think after SL made 289 ?

my prediction is NZ will fall short, probably about 207-209ish

Shame, would have liked to see them in the final, but to be honest they probably aren't good enough, I think Sri Lanka are a worthy adversary

I really cant wait to see the next two games ..........

big one tonight!

Australia have won the toss and will bat.

All signs point to a good match

Watch out for McGrath, last match ever, end of an era for sure


Ricky Ponting: "We're going to have a bat first. The wicket, ah, looks nice with a bit on top. The team's up and ready. We've been looking forward to this moment for a long time. Aw, there will be a few nerves, but we've got a lot of experienced guys there. It's a big day for them."


Mahela Jayawardene. "Ah, it looks pretty flat for me. We were thinking of batting first but after seeing the conditions we were unsure what to do. I am happy losing the toss, basically! It's a brilliant atmosphere for us and we're here to have some fun."
