It is basically a semi final tomorrow morning at the Gabba in Brisbane. It looks like Vaughan and Lewis will be back in the side probably instead off Loye and Mahmood. Hopefully a win tomorrow.

Well thats it ,you've cursed us now Ultra :wink: Spuddy should be starting this thread off,look what happened the last time he started one off :D

Yeah should be a good one,weird thing is i want us too win,only last week i was saying how i want the series to be over and us to come home asap,i'm so fickle :oops:

just 3 wins and weve won the whole thing! :beers:

never gonna happen of course!

 :nod:  Couldn't have put it better myself.

a defeat for us. all out for 90 probably  :-))(

Loye and Mahmood did alright, bit harsh to drop them.

Two wins in a row, maybe? Unthinkable!

It's an absolute farce really, this format. England or NZ could end up winning a tournament that the Australians have actually won by miles.

bit like the playoffs tho aint it ... Bury could still go up!

no they can't

it's not even beyond the realms of possibilty

dead cert 2-0 to aus whoever they play and that was done and dusted before a ball was bowled

Oh FFS how quick did the Kiwis take that wicket. Great start as usual for England  :groan1:

32-2 - absolutely joke. Vaughan and Bell gone.  :shrug:

 :soap:

270-7  :D

71-0 off 11 overs,we're going to lose  :(

Plunkett conceded 11 from his first over!

I knew i should have made a thread, damn you Ultra!  :evil:

84-1 off 17 overs.

120-2 at 25 overs going to be a close one

203-4 with 8 overs to go - pretty even, I guess England need to keep the momentum gained from nabbing a wicket and grad another one or two cheaply.  Fleming seems to be the key man in this match.  Come on! twon in a row miracles can happen.

I hate the English cricket team, full of foreigners and arrogant over paid pricks

233-8 even England can't blow it now can they?

England won by 14 runs and are in best of 3 finals against the Aussies.

Another hammering on the horizon

That was tense!! WELL DONE England - Virgil may have got 0 but his contribution as captain was immense today!

we are in the final! fucking hell i thought i was dreaming! world cup anyone?  :soapy tit wank:

and you thought we would be all out for 90.

it was looking quite likely at 52-3 tbh

they better bring lewie back for saj for the finals

Great comeback by the team,just thrilled by the fight back we put up today,and the fact we've got a small bit of pride back by qualifing.Of course we're going to be stuffed in the final games,i doubt very much if it'll go to the three games tbh,but what the hell  :D

Yeah it was but Colly and Strauss batted really well.

:beers:  that is all.

yup. for once they actually did something decent! it won't last we'll lose the final 2-0

I hope we don't get humilated on Friday for the first final. Plus Vaughany got absolute Jaffer from Bond an inswinging yorker that no one could of played

yeah wasn't Vaughan's fault that one! i would love it if we won but i just cant see it happening

We'll beat the Aussies 2-1.

I stayed up right till the end to watch this one!  Brilliant stuff!  Good bowling from Flintoff.

Did you see that huge Oxford United flag in the crowd?  Bastards  :evil:

]hahahahahahahahahahahha

sorry this is coming from a football fan

hahahahahahaha

tres amusant

if you haven't got the intelligence to enjoy cricket thats one thing (by this i don't mean you have to be academically outstanding) but your comment is completely non-sensical

unless you hate all the over paid pricks (all of them) in the swindon team

because if you listen to guys like joyce who don't come out with the same cliched bollocks as the rest of sportspeople, let alone dumb as fuck overrated footballers you'll start to realise

btw i love swindon, they are my team. but there is not a bigger collection of cocks in the world and utterly shite for what they are paid than the swindon town football team

at least cricketers are paid what they are worth

at least they know the definition of the word entertainment

instead of the word 'HOOF'

as i said swindon are still my team but you guys have no perspective whatsever and it makes me cringe

Hes clearly quite ignorant and misinformed. (Not you Boeta)

Despite what backgrounds they have they wear the 3 lions and represent our country.  Thats good enough for me, and as for overpaid, (as Boeta said) suprised you're a footy fan with that viewpoint.

Ignore him, he's "German".

P.S. I took a great deal of pleasure out of the fact an irishman helped beat the Aussies last week 8)

love joycie

Yeah saw it on the highlights last night,made me feel ill :chunder:

may I should have changed my statement to "over decorated"

Not being funny Boeta, I agree with your point, but how much exactly do you think the players are earning?! I'm sure it's not ridiculously high sums of money at this level

yes but then they are ridiculously untalented

wanker

hahahaha nice work

I can't believe that you jumped on the cricket bandwagon just because it became popular after England won the ashes, bet you bought all the Spice Girls albums after they became popular as well.

of course i did, didn't you?

No, I have always hated cricket, it is shite.

no i was talking about the spice girls

well in that case of course, didn't we all?
