Anyone watching? Not really into it myself but great win for Ireland the other day!

The first week is wow and lots of interesting news!

Gibbs score 36 off one over

Flintoff get in trouble

Pakistian Coach dies (RIP)

Pakistian out!

World Cup Record Score by India today

and more!

Cricket has never really floated my boat, even though i have lived in yorkshire for fifteen years and had it rammed down my neck some pretty interesting headlines coming out of this world cup though. Do we know if the pakistan coach topped himself or natural causes?

Just found out that Bob Woolmer was murdered :eek:

Yeah, police are now looking for killers, might be 2 or more murderers!

Also another record by McCullum for scoring 50runs in 20 balls!

I think that this World Cup will always be associated with the murder of Woolmar, in the same way that that 1972 Olympics are associated with the murder of the Israeli athletes by Palestinian terrorists. :sad:

I hope the police find the killers.

Nonetheless, the show continues today with the Super 8s. My somewhat unimaginative points predictions for each match are as follows:

Hayden just scored 158! not bad!! West Indies have to win today! lol

England Vs Ireland

Neither side really got going, and Collingwood's 90 was the difference in the end. Nearly let Ireland back into it with his dodgy bowling though! Very respectable scoreline. I reckon if Ireland keep it up they'll claim at least one more big scalp in the tournament.

Australia, Sri Lanka, South Africa and New Zealand to go Semi-Finals

nah, Australia, NZ, England and West Indies!

I'm watching England play Sri Lanka now. Come on England. must win this game!!!

West Indies nah they more likely to eliminated the tournament

england was very poorly this world cup!! oh dear! Autralia to win!

hmm my prediction are right

I think Australia will beat Sri Lanka in the final.

Zealand v Sri Lanka - Sri Lanka to win

Australia v South Africa - South Africa to win :eek:

Go AUSSIE!!!!

Am so happy that AUSSIE won!

If wanna know why? BEC am from AUSSIE *big wink*

It looked like Woolmer wasn't murdered according to a Pakistani police officer who flew to investigate. Said there were "insufficent evidence of any murder"

Gonna be interesting to watch from now onwards!

Believe that if he was murderded the killer is long gone and the police in the caribean cannot do anything about it. RIP Woolmer

what a embrassing for jamician police!!! Woolmer died of natural causes! i feel sorry for his famnily.
