Gone! Game Over. England are out.

Some over to finish. Wicket. Dot Ball. Wicket.

Foreigners. I can think of one in particular who is going to get it in the neck. His "we knew what we had to do, we just didn't do it" post-match interview is going to be cringeworthy.

[AZOffaly]

The Irishman obviously!

Are England as crap at cricket as they look? Could we be in the QFs when they're at home watching on TV (having stolen our best players)?

And Cheltenham to come.

They really are that bad, at one day cricket anyway. They haven't done anything of note in the World Cup since the early 90's.

There really is nothing in world sport as entertaining as an England post mortem.

delusions of grandeur followed by harsh reality. Great stuff!

I could look this up, but I reckon I'll get a quicker answer here - if we finish level on points with W. Indies what decides who progresses to the QFs?

Net Run Rate - NRR on the table.

Thanks. I can't find odds for W. Ind. v. Zim. What are the chances of Zimbabwe winning?
