World Cup - games that don't include Australia

[CoverKing]

Just seen the hattrick drop catch.

Firstly, the second wicket was an absolute perler by Jaywardene at first slip, one hander going to his left and catching it behind the keeper.

The hattrick ball, an edge to jaywardene at first again, absolute dolly and dropped. only thing it was a touch low, no other excuses

[RoosterMarty]

Still haven't seen it but how do you take a pearlier one ball and drop an easy one the next?

Would have been the 3rd hatty of the Cup thus far, I doubt that has been done before.

[CoverKing]

Wait to you see the perler! Bloody difficult considering it was so fine and pretty much behind sangakkarra.

I reckon the Aussies are going to win this cup. Indias fielding/bowling are crap, Sri Lanka are a danger, as is Pakistan (on one day but are just as bad as Kenya the next day)... Can't see many other sides getting close to winning the world cup. Maybe south Africa?

[Media Park]

And peoplen wonder why Pakistan are always involved in Match Fixing claims. I read this morning that the top level contracted players are only earning 2900 a month! What a disgrace.

I am not condoning what these players do but surely something has to be done about that if it is correct?

To make a fair comparison, I'd love to be earning that kinda money.

What around 725 a week to be one of the best in your country?

And this is the upper echelon.. Its not much at all.

[Media Park]

[Jim05]

Ireland 5/191(40)
Thought ireland was a real chance a few overs ago but a couple of quick wickets including joyce for 87 has set them back a bit

[Brucetiki]

Ireland 6/199 after what could only be described as a piece of absolute arrogance from Asoka De Silva

Gary Wilson had every right to go off at De Silva

[Jim05]

Ireland 6/199
Pathetic umpiring decision cost ireland a wicket. The DRS just cocked up big time

[CoverKing]

Ireland just lose a wicket
Lbw
Referred
Not a no ball
Pitches outside off
HITS OUTSIDE OFF
Clearly playing a shot
Not given out
Ireland fella Wilson argues
Umpire rechecks with third umpire
Still given out
What a ******* disgrace

[jackpot jim]

What a total F**KING joke the Review system is if that LBW wasn't overturned.
Hitting outside the off stump yet is still given out.
Commentator is saying Asoka De Silva thought Wilson WASN'T playing a shot.

Oh of course he wasn't, Why would he ? They only need 9 rpo.

[Jim05]

Ireland crumbling.
Whoever gets the Windies in the quarter finals woukd be rubbing their hands together, they are absolute rubbish and just making up the numbers

Yep spot on. Absolute disgrace

it wasnt the drs that stuffed up, that worked perfectly showing him to be not out - the problem is the arrogance of some umpires who refuse to listen to the technology, there was a similar incidenct in the kenya vs canada game when tikolo hit the ball was still given out lbw despite referring it

[Media Park]

Pollard has shown what he can do on his day, and we already know about Gayle.

With solid batsmen like Sarwan, Chanderpaul, Smith, they have the ability to score 280-300.

Kemar Roach is the lynchpin leader with the ball, and Sulieman Benn needs to have a good day too, and they can do a number on anyone.

[Thiele]

Eng 6/195 during the 45th over against the Bangers
