Are you the only one with nothing to hide?

It is, and I'm not quite getting it. Not the first player to have an exaggerated opinion on his own abilities, is he? In fact, cockiness is a desirable feature in a striker. There would be something wrong if he didn't think he should be starting every match. Probably all for the best though, his...

Rather disingenuous of you to put 'brown people' in quotes like that. Implies that is a quote from the Daily Mail.

Archer was chasing every ball down the leg side. Why don't they just let those ones go? Frustrating.

Arise, Sir Geoffrey. A much deserved accolade. Probably my all time favourite commentator, always very listenable and displays real knowledge and passion for the game he loves. :bowdown:

I'm not familiar with the rest of the album, but some blissed out hammond space rock that I often return to :bowdown:

So send Joe Bloggs from Sidcup down also! I'm sure it hurts just the same whether you get bowled over by a celebrity drunk driver or a normo drunk driver. Judges should treat each case equally harshly.

Me and Mr. Jones - Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine.

The judge has admitted to making an example of him, which does seem rather harsh to me. "Throughout these proceedings you have shown yourself to be arrogant, thinking you are someone whose previous and current role in the public eye entitles you to be above the law," District Judge Sanders...

It tastes great in the bottles. For some reason it tastes awful from the can.

True, I should have said tie.

I'm not arguing that England didn't win the match, they did, quite obviously! However, England were chasing a winning target of 242 and they failed to reach that total. Not ideal, is it? What I am saying is, the law is an ass. I would say exactly the same if the Black Caps benefited from the...

Agreed! Doesn't make it fair or right. Both teams strained every sinew in search of victory, it's not fair to either side that they are denied the chance of an outright victory based on RUNS SCORED. Have you been to an international recently? The lights come on at every match, even when the...

Some fair comment there, pulled apart by the usual suspects. Technically it was a draw, and an England win declared on count back. It seems clear to me a second super would have been the fairest way to produce an outright winner, it's a shame they didn't add that condition to the rules to begin...

I didn't say NZ were wronged, just England were lucky. No problem at all with England winning the World Cup. Overall, they were the best team in the tournament. However, I do feel they got very lucky in the final.

I'll trade you back your sundries for Jason Roy first ball :thumbsup:

That's unfair, it's perfectly reasonable to chew over the bones of the game like this. This thread is naturally partizan and not representative of the cricket community as a whole! England rode their luck big time on Sunday and a lot of key decisions went their way. To me, the celebrations were...

Quite an assumption! If he had been capable of that he would have won the game outright.

Only now I complain? It's never happened in an ODI before, right?! I'm not a great follower of Twenty20 cricket if that is what you are referring to. This competition has been my first exposure to the boundary count rule, and I am sure many other cricket fans are the same. Actively winning it...

No sour grapes at all.I would say the same if it was the other way around. To lose the world cup after a tied game and a tied super over is simply not FAIR. A team should be allowed to actively win it without a count back on something historic. In the league format, I totally agree. This way...
