An amazing way to respond to a compliment. This English side is one of the best ODI units ever. All Indian fans grant you that.

Apologies, I only read the first line of your comment .

Atherton, Ian Smith, Nicholas, Ian Bishop Best commentators imo.

On another note, I want to know when India and England are clashing after the World Cup? India has a vengeance due for sure.[DOUBLEPOST=1562863745][/DOUBLEPOST]

Because they are the lovers of the Game in the truest sense. They have lived that Gold Cricket era and they have been with best of the best commentators of those times who used to commentate beyond the fact that their home side is playing.

I believed that the other users were a bit harsh, but now I see that you really do have an unhealthy obsession over the India-England fixture for no reason.

So many great games in this WC. I`m surprised people called it boring. We had more close games than 2011+2015. I enjoyed it more than 2011 personally despite India winning that one. Lets list the good games--
BAN-SA, PAK-ENG, IND-AUS (high quality and close enough), ENG-SL, AUS-WI, AUS-PAK, NZ-BAN, BAN-IND, IND-AFG, SA-NZ, SA-AUS, AFG-PAK, WI-NZ, WI-SL, WI-AFG, AFG-SL, SF1 (IND-NZ)

That is a lot more than close games between the top-ranked sides in 2015. Hope the final is not a damp squib like it is usually.

I have loved this World Cup. The pitches have been fantastic. Thank god those snooze fest roads which had 400 in them have been avoided.

Take the rain away and I would give the World Cup a 9/10. My fav format for sure.

Improvements in umpiring and the coverage is required for sure. We get the sky feed during the Ashes and in my opinion, that's the best cricket telecast to watch.

And now?????

Haha, fair enough. England crushed Australia much to my surprise. They go into the Final with one hand on the cup. You did get the over count wrong though

I think you are taking things negatively due to the loss yesterday. Clearly, I had no such intentions. Instead of getting emotional, take it in a positive way because it was meant to say in positive gesture.[DOUBLEPOST=1562864590][/DOUBLEPOST]The Englishmen should calm down a bit, surely their team rightfully in the finals but there is no need to take a dig at each other for no reason.

Poor way to end a not so poor but not perfect World Cup, good luck to England and New Zealand in the Final. Would love to see our Trans Tasman rivals lift the trophy, winning a World Cup feels amazing, especially as a fan. Attention moves to the Ashes now, hope I will see some of you guys over in that thread next month

WOW! 5 times WC winner are steamrolled by this amazing English team.
I hope final will provide a more equal contest similar to the first semifinal, but for that New Zealand will need to take this superb opening pair from England.

I'm really torn about who to support in the final, both great and very likeable teams from a neutral perspective.
