Siiiick game..its to much..
44 needed from 23 balls..
Pak should be able to pull it off..ahhhhh

That almost went down to the wire! Good game.

Good bowling by Afridi but by far the most sloppiest fielding I have ever seen.

Pheeeew..

Lovely match

Go Pakistan go!!! That exciting game was a real treat to watch till end! Imo, had Sri Lanka have an extra over, they would've rocked!

 

[ateekt]

Ind vs Eng; Another thriller we're having today yet again!! What a nail-biting game. Still anyone can win & anyone can lose!!

 

[Cashmere]

There's no better word to describe it, that game was EPIC! As mentioned earlier, England are the Dark Knight's in this tournament.

Damn i missed the game..i watched the start..and thought..this is a walk away for india with Tendulkars performance..

But when i read the score..i was like WHHHAAAAAT!!!

Damn WC is turning out to be kick ass so far

 

[Potential]

Can't believe England saved that game with a tie. India's lower order are to blame.

I don't know squat about cricket but why is this thread in the Garbage Bin?

 

[ateekt]

338 is a tremendous figure to chase! However, no matter how big of a score you post, you still need a tidy attack to defend it.

India, imo, needs a better bowling attack & today's game said it all. They should must update their side for remaining games!

Agree! When you're playing game like cricket, you can't afford to go beyond lines! Or else you may suffer severe consequences!!

Those pitches are full of surprise! You can be bowled out at 69 & you may also chase a mammoth total like 338! Beauty of cricket that.

True. Well, I hope they get their sh!t straight and stop underestimating other teams.

Hey guys, I didn't get to follow the game at all, but what did the Indians do/say/act that made them seem cocky? (Not a fan of India in the slightest, just curious and trying to keep up with the CWC)

Not that they did or say anything. It's just that it looked like they got overconfident against England and didn't play hard enough from the get go. So by the time they got serious, it was too late.

I dont know about the cockyness. Haven't seen anything out of the ordinary from my side. Indian fan's are definitely pumped up and feel they're unstoppable probably because they're currently number 1 according to the ODI rankings and have been in impeccable form.

They are strong contenders for the cup but the beauty of this sport lies in its unpredictability.
