LOLptimist!
I think itās gonna be bloody tight tomorrow. And probably come down to who bats first.
Itās weird, England have made their reputation over the last couple of years by being great at chasing. But this just hasnāt been a tournament for successful chases.
Because the wickets have been prepared by the ICC and not by the ECB, that said the wickets havenāt just been slow theyāve resulted in some poor games, shit is another word.
They have denied that. Throughout the tournament.
Which bit my good man?
The ICC.
Are you saying the ICC are denying preparing the pitches?
Thatās what was said a week or two ago
I think Iād check that, they have responsibility for the wickets and advise how they should be prepared, in short theyāre responsible, have English wickets been prepared for the England team like this in say the last 4 years?
Then I think the ICC might just be guilty of failing memory.
ICC groundsmen help prepare the wickets, they always do for ICC competitions.
Saying that the umpires actually choose which wicket to useā¦
Why donāt you try speaking to one of the Groundsmen?
I did earlier but he was having a beer and didnāt want to be disturbedā¦
Fred fuck off
Itās a semi final. Itās an England team.
Canāt move for the hype all over the internet. We all know the story, #gallantlosers. Why do we bother?
#itsthehopethatkillsyou
Iāve booked Monday off because I KNOW that Iāll be watching England in the final on Sunday.
Australia win toss and will bat.
No excuses.
Finch gone LBW bowled Archer. Golden duck.
Great delivery and a great decision by the umpire.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Warner gone!
Great start. Get Smith and weāre looking good.
