Milano, I eat humble pie mate, he bowled brilliant yesterday, especially that pip to Vince. Not overly quick but I guess I’m getting too wrapped up in pace because of the speeds of Starc and Cummins. His swing was almost unplayable at times. Any got a knife and fork 🍽

Behrendorff is a very good bowler he has just had a shocking injury problem. I assumed he was older than 29.

Aj Tye is another good bowler.

Hahah you’re a good man Sloan . Yeh I agree on a flat deck he can be up and down but 9 times out of 10 he is brilliant with the new ball . He’s a bit like Nathan bracken , plays his role , supports the super quicks and keeps it tight. I believe Australia have found their best attack now and the only change I would have is moving smith to 3 , dropping uzman and bringing in Shaun marsh at 4 . Other than that this team is looking pretty dam good .

India NZ and Aus will make it, and then it’s a free for all. I’m saying England

Boy is it tight now India, NZ and AUS could all finish in any combination of 1,2,3. PAK and BD are going to be neck and neck, with even SL fancying their chances with games against SA and WI remaining.

That was my favourite game of the World Cup so far. NZ are a serious side and the way Babar Azam and Harris Sohail easily progressed to that total was great value for money. I love this! Pakistan is a side which needs to succeed in order for the world of cricket to be tangible, much like the West Indies.
Their younger players are really leading the way with both bat and ball. Shaheen and Shadab Khan with the ball today, and Sohail and Babar with the bat. They’ve done away with Malik it seems...

Also, big comment here, but I think young Imam Ul Haq is going to be the best opener Pakistan have had since Saeed Anwar

He was at house gathering I was at with my girlfriend and a few of my friends .Extremely arrogant didn’t want to know anybody , on his phone the whole time . Telling people how much he was getting payed in the ipl ect , just not my sort of guy . Loved talking about himself but made no effort with anyone else.
