Just thought you should know that the world cup has begun & NZ's doin' ok.

I think the whole nature of the ODI game is being changed by this tournament-for the better. That is good too, 20/20 lacks the depth and ebb and flow and for me and ODI a more interesting format by far. Test cricket will always be the best though.

 

The disappointing thing  is it is happening almost totally off the radar for me-and that is at as a cricket fan. No terrestrial TV coverage and games overnight mean I have just kept up with the news and not seen a single ball struck.

 

NZ to beat SA? Here is hoping.

Thanks for letting us know Komet. Its hard to get involved when its all happening overnight, but I hear England are doing well. Apparently they finished first.

Afghanistan and Scotland share a few things. Both peopled by rebellious and largely ungovernable tribes. and both worse than England at cricket. Just.

I'd like to see New Zealand win the tournament. 

 

Couldn't believe just how bad England were.  Afghanistan were probably embarrassed to have lost to them.

Bad wasn't the word I would have used for England Tony, crap was more like it. Like you I would like to see NZ winning it.
