[Cricket] ICC Cricket World Cup 2023- Final- India v Australia

[Pogue Mahone]

What was the 'soft' decision? Did the umpire suggest it was out?

If so, benefit of the doubt goes that way.

I thought it was clearly out.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Athers thought it was out.

Could cost us the World Cup that.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Start the car.......

Simply awful. Bring them home.

 

[MJsGhost]

It's about time the team went home. Nothing short of a disgrace.

They've definitely fallen short of performance expectations (so far), but disgrace might be a little OTT.

It's not like they've been caught out clubbing the night before, or abusing fans or anything like that.

I take it back!

 

[Pogue Mahone]

Score prediction? I think we'll get 142.

I underestimated them.

Sorry, England.

 

[Titanic]

England 156 all out (33.2 overs)

 

[dazzer6666]

Utterly brainless end to a brainless innings. Charging down the wicket with 17 overs left. ***t.

 

[Zebedee]

The players all looked utterly gormless, indiscriminately trying to hit everything that was bowled. An appalling display again by a bunch of overrated excuses for cricketers. Time to bring in some fresh blood, even if our bowlers can do the business. which is highly unlikely.

 

[ROSM]

Exactly 100 balls left....the irony!

I thought it was clearly out.

"Soft signal" was expunged from the process. Decision was entirely in the hands of the TV Umpire.

 

[KZNSeagull]

Well played.

 

[Pevenseagull]

Utterly feeble.

 

[Guinness Boy]

Exactly 100 balls left....the irony!

Yup. Giving over ALL of August to a competition literally no one else plays just to flog some crisps to the kiddies is criminal. Reaping the rewards in front of our eyes.

 

[Diablo]

Well played.

Well played Sri Lanka !!

 

[JamesAndTheGiantHead]

 

[Pogue Mahone]

Well, it was pretty close.

They only scored four more runs than we did.

 

[Pevenseagull]

Jesus wept.

 

[Audax]

Jesus wept.

Surely, given it's cricket, that should be "Jesus swept". Probably far better than any English batters would.
