Cricket ODI World Cup

Did india win?

Yes India won. Wasn't a bad effort from Pakistan but to big a chase.

[Mick Pattaya]

India and South Africa won today, Zimbabwe did give S Africa a bit of a scare.

Ireland chased down 304 to beat the West Indies today

 

A shock say some , but the Windies have been second rate for many a year .

Easy RCon 2 on Soi Buakhao are playing the cricket everyday. Opposite the Soi Buakhao market at the S-bend on Soi Buakhao behind the RCon Residence hotel.

 

Five large screen televisions and plenty of seating.

 

Andy is up early everymorning to make sure everything is running smoothly.

Its 2015 and therefor time for the next instalment of the cricket ODI world cup in Australia and New Zealand.

 

As an England fan I am not really looking forward to this tournament as it could potentially be a disaster. Our biggest problem will be scoring over 330 runs as this is almost the norm with the top tier teams.

 

I’m really hoping that the Kiwis and Aussies turn up in good numbers to give us TV fans a fantastic viewing experience. .

 

My predictions are as follows:

 

Winners: South Africa

Runners up: Australia

Dark Horse: New Zealand

Biggest failure: India

Player of the tournament: AB De Villers or Mitchell Johnson.

 

After watching South Africa totally destroy the West Indies with some MASSIVE scores, they have the potential to out bat everyone.

 

If only the ICC could get their act together and look to hold a test world cup…. I live to dream………..

You might just end up eating your words on India mate.

Pakistan are such a poor side that I'd even expect England to beat them, so it's too early to judge India yet.

 

Don't think they'll reach the final. They'll probably get to the semi-final as England don't have a good side. However, IF England manage to qualify, the MCG pitch may be quick enough for the English bowlers to worry India.

Finally got our new Minix box with a local server in BKK. Full HD with no buffering. Bloody brilliant.

What ridiculous scheduling of a World Cup, only one game today, that too Bangladesh vs Afghanistan. Who would want to watch a game like this, except the ardent supporters, nothing for the neutrals. Can't believe teams like Australia, England, S Africa just sitting in the wings.

Actually it hasn't been a bad game so far but the Afghanistan batsmen are off to a shaky start.

aussies v bangladash from brisbane but aussie news reckon it might be rained off as tropical rain forcast for queensland for four days

I agree. Not so much that these games aren't interesting but the whole schedule is miles too slow. They could have had double the number of games that they have had so far. Everyone will be sick of it after 6 weeks.

The next ODI World Cup will involve less teams and should hopefully be faster moving.

Lets see on Sunday...

[studboybkk]

Lets see on Sunday...

Well let's see. If India win Sun, they will probably make semis for sure

[Dr MA]

Don't know about semi's but they sure will make history on Sunday if they win.

They have never beaten SA in a world cup.

 

I see SA has recruited Mike Hussey as a team consultant - TOP move as he can assist with knowledge of local conditions.

More importantly he can help with their mental resilience and fighting spirit.

 

Go SA!

Upto semis 

[sexy man]

nz v poms now on. poms 46/2 after 11 overs

 

looks like the aussie game in brisbane tomorrow may be called off due to cyclonic rain in brisbane

[sexy man]

england now 57/3 after 13 overs. bell just out

[SpankTheLing]

English looking shaky. Hope they come back and make a game of it.

[SpankTheLing]

5/104 England in deep sh#t.

[DazzaDownUnder]

Morgan looked horribly out of touch from the start.

 

Taylor played well the other night and looks like a real talent but he just got a ripper of a delivery.

 

England in disarray again.

[DazzaDownUnder]

Well let's see. If India win Sun, they will probably make semis for sure

 

I'd be very surprised if India got anywhere near SA.

 

SA, Australia and NZ are a fair way ahead of the rest IMO.
