Agreed.
Let me tell you a little story about this. Theres a local radio station down here in Bournemouth, run by amature (sp) enthusiasts, gets on average 1000 listeners. One of my good mates DJs in 4 of the local night clubs and had a show on this radio station. He asked another mate if he wanted to do a Sunday evening sports show, who in turn asked me if I wanted to do it with him. I said I would. I did one show and wasnt allowed back on because apparently 'you cant view your opinions about womans sport and Africans on a radio station'
True story

My bets are looking OK at the moment.
I am thinking about smashing £20 on either Pakistan or South Africa to win the whole thing. Both looking solid although I would say South Africa not had a proper test yet.....

pakistan have only had sri lanka, who obviously they did well against, i dont think they're good enough batting to be a threat tbh.
South Africa are looking good, be interesting to see if they destroy us on sunday or not

Pakistan, when they are good, they are bloody good. When they are poor, they are dog shit
I just feel they could go far. Cant keep relying on Afridi to bowl the way he has been though.

I 've always asked, why doesnt a spin bowler stroll in and properly fire it at a batsman, and then Afridi did it to one of the kenyans the other day and bowled him first ball. Suprised no-one else has really thought of doing it

Only worked because the Kenyans are shit.
Any half-decent batsman would have the wits to block a quicker ball.

1 wicket needed, 8 runs needed, did not think it'd get this far
England win! Can't beat Ireland but can get past South Africa! Great game of cricket. I could of got england at 9/1 as well, but chickened out again, was waiting for 10/1.

Pietersen home, Morgan in...
I reckon that his surgery could of waited till after the world cup, but he's not been great so far, and we've been lacking in the middle order, bet they jumped at the chance of getting morgan in, on his day he's probably the best englishman around at limited overs cricket

Commentary from the NZ vs Pakistan game:
'The last five overs have gone for 95 runs. The last three for 73...quite, quite unbelievable.'

Yeah, amazing innings from Taylor, at the start he couldn't hit the ball at all, he then ended up knocking them out of the ground.
3rd hundred was from 29 balls, from the last 5 overs
