Probably, Howard, but they still managed to beat England.

Maybe Geoff could tell us how popular cricket is over there.

That's shaken things up a bit .
If England don't beat Pakistan on Sunday they could be out in the group stage .

Why is everyone surprised ? England have an average team not only in cricket but mostly everything else we play - when we come up against a fighting team we shit it big time!!

Hey, even a spliffed out on Moroccan team could see off the English cricket team - AND probably the footie team at the same time....Whilst blindfolded! Not surprised, at all!

I will however, be hoping against hope for an Ashes win...!

Watched this game last night. Some of the best power hitting by Chris Gayle since Viv Richards or Adam Gilchrist in their prime.

Brett Lee was a joke.

Well done Windies.

much cheered by the Windies impressive win - obviously means we're going to win the Ashes

Interesting watching the program on West Indies cricket last night on the Beeb . If only they had their team from the late Seventies / early Eighties .
