ICC Cricket World Cup - May/July 2019

[NILAYSHAH60]

Want South Africa to win ofcourse

But England will definitely start favorites, unless Rabada, Ngidi can bowl a fiery opening spell and snuff out the top 2-3 English batsmen

England will come out as winner for the opening match. This is going to be a bit of on/off tournament for the Proteas.

Can we please keep away from throwing insults/attacks on one another. If you feel something is wrong, report the post and action will be taken wherever deemed necessary.

Keep continuing with the WC discussions and have healthy debates.

It is just poor planning. When holding such a prime tournament in countries like England or Sri Lanka, reserve days are mandatory even for group games. We have already seen 2 warm ups washed out. In a tournament where the top 4 qualification might come down to net run rate, not having reserve days is just poor stuff

Also the recently concluded CT where the Aussies suffered because of rain.

Drizzling now ... India's warm up might well get washed out

It's just a short drizzle

My word Gayle has gone beserk today. Just look at the shot that he hit for a boundary in the first over. A big innings is coming from him today

Gayle's gone Expected him to score atleast a 100. But certainly we've seen the trailer of a bigger picture right now. Come the WC Gayle will be all fired up !!

Already not liking this world cup. I mean literally, why they have to choose England as host nation just when it's season of rain?

Windies 125/1 in 15 against New Zealand and thanks to their Fielding

Very impressed with bangladesh bowling... They are keeping it so tight and not giving any room whatsoever. And despite the rain, the wicket is not offering much movement either. Impressive stuff to snuff out genuine edges from kohli and Rohit

They need to get rohit though. If he sticks around for another few overs, he might end up scoring big. Since its a fairly good wicket for batting

If that is the case we might not even have matches in England as it rains throughout the year in England

To be fair it's the early English summers over there.

And I'm afraid he's out. Was a fairly good delivery though. Some decent bounce out there for Rubel. He is a major threat for Indian batting line-up from how much I've seen since 2015 WC Quarter-final

Jeez. They could rather ban major ICC events in England then. They only get Ashes.

Haha

Shai Hope is in Prime form. Send in brathwaite after 5 down and then Russell and you can aim for 400.
