    Those last two overs really screwed India after an amazing spell from Zaheer Khan.

    Yep. 13 runs in the last over.

    What a great match. Can't get any closer.

    Assuming India wins their group, that means Pakistan would have made the semi-finals or finals. Considering everything going on in Pakistan cricket, that would actually be a good result for us...

    their is no way pakistan is not making quarters. no matter how bad, they will always be better then zimbabwe, canada and kenya. they already have four points and are a shoe in for the quarters. i think they will finish second behind Australia and be ranked A2 which means they will play B3 which I think will be England.

    Obviously they are making the quarters. I was pointing out that if they got in a match with India, it would have to be in the semi-final or the final. Even a semifinal appearance would be a great improvement over what they have done the past three world cups...

    Btw, did anyone else see the Kemar Roach hat-trick?! Great stuff...

    A hat trick in cricket probably has to be the hardest out of all the sports. What a beast.

    I don't mean to take away from his hat rick, but he was bowling to the bottom batsmen of the Netherlands...

    Most insane wicket taker I've seen this World Cup. I don't see how he's not called for chucking with his 'pitching' style form. Isn't that how he manages to get that late swing in his yorkers?

    I wouldn't allow that type of motion playing with my friends..much less in the WC. However, it seems like it's allowed. Anyone know the rule on this?

    LOL @ the India media's poor attempts to try and bring down Australia. I mean match fixing because they started slow? The whinge fest about Ponting breaking a tv was also laughable, remember Hayden breaking a window with his bat got about 1/10000 of the coverage here as the Indians carried on with the Ponting incident.

    Did anybody see what O'Brian did? 50 ball hundred from a guy on the Irish team is just awesome.

    Yes, that was a very good game. If England loses to South Africa, they will be in a tough situation trying to make the Super 8. This World Cup so far has been very exciting!

    Ireland whipped England. Nice. I'm gonna laugh so hard if Canada beats Pakistan tomorrow.

    Ireland is actually a somewhat decent team (they beat Pakistan and Bangladesh last world cup). Canada is not even close to upsetting anybody...
