I see SL beat Australia, that group is wide open between SL/Aus/WI. Crazy that that group had NZ in it as well before they pulled out. Bit unfair, then you look at England's group, which is a cakewalk for them!
I think it will be Sri Lanka followed by the Australians in the group. Highly doubt Sri Lanka losing to the Windies.

Tinah's shite English kids underperforming against the World Champions :lol:
They have a good team on their hands, I hope they go far and eventually replace the current batch of shite masquerading as the England national team that’s currently shite. You know your team is terrible when they put on their worst performance since the 1800s. With their own world class U19 coming through, they will be less inclined to poach South African, Zimbabwean and West Indian talent

Bethell, 17, son of former outstanding domestic and Barbados Under-19 batsman Graham Bethell, and the grandson of Arthur Bethell who played 16 matches for the senior Barbados side between 1963 and 1970 went to England three years ago on a scholarship and is currently on the books at Warwickshire.

Jacob represented Barbados at the regional Under-15 level and was recognised by many – including batting great Brian Lara – as one of the top junior prospects in the Caribbean.

Today, Bethell was offered congratulations by the president of the Barbados Cricket Association (BCA) Conde Riley, who described the former Harrison College student’s preference to play for England as “nothing new” and said there was nothing the local cricket governing body could do about it.

It's time these tin pot Third World countries who perpetually whine about racism actually practice what they preach.

PNG bundled out in the end. :D

Still pretty encouraging for us that Afghanistan only made 200 against that attack though. We've got to get maybe all three pacers in the team somehow if fit

Uganda did well to restrict SA to 230. Apparently they dropped Brevis three times! :x
