And Australia are the world champions!
After a closely fought tournament, the semi-final and final were one-sided affairs for Australia.  Smiley

The finals are here.
Will it be Australia or New Zealand?
Australia seem to be favourites, in spite of the loss to New Zealand earlier.

Cracker of a match - Australia vs, New Zealand.
New Zealand just scraping through.

As expected, UAE are not putting up a fight against India.
Tame collapse.

How are people in the US watching the matches? It's on ESPN for $99 and that seems to be the only option



Real cricket fans don't mind paying that much.
Some of them are even ready to travel to Australia.  Wink

Ireland managed to get past UAE.
They are right now joint toppers in Group B, with 4 points.  Grin

Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh coming up.
After surviving a scare against Afghanistan, Sri Lanka would definitely want to win comprehensively tomorrow.

I am excited, great game between India and SA
India again wasted the last 5 overs but 307 is at very least competitive, good contest

Another comprehensive victory.
India is looking good to top this group now.
very poor performance by South Africa, i am really disappointed today,
Indian team team won their awesome performance.

Yes, it was surprising to see South Africa collapse like this while chasing.
Since it was a league match, there must have been no additional pressure on South Africa.
Yet they collapsed like a pack of cards.

People in US really dont give a crap about Cricket lol even the Indians there are concerned with baseball & ice hockey & basketball & what not.

And those people that have money to fly out of India and go & settle / work in USA can probably afford $99 I think; its not a permanent thing either just a few weeks or a few days of important matches at the most.

why cricket is only popular in British commonwealth country?
i rarely see my friend talk about cricket
I only know India & Pakistan are strong team Cheesy

On the contrary actually, India were considered a weak team until the last world cup, before that we only won 1 full overs world cup and that was in 1983. India's win in the 2011 world cup in my book was all because of the momentum we had going into the tournament. Unlike in 2007 where we were simply embarrassed by our 1st round exit; that time we were prepared.

But coming into the 2015 World Cup I feel our players are VERY exhausted, with all the domestic tournaments and the T20's taking a toll on the player's fitness. So far our side has shown little weakness but only time will tell if we have enough gas to see this one through the end.

And about Pakistan... they have 1 World Cup under their belt and a T20 world cup under their belt, their players perform well in many tournaments but they generally arent really 'dangerous' but they certainly do have their moments. I am sure a Pakistani would tell you a completely different story about their team.

Didnt have time to follow the matches so far but have seen the highlights of Afghanistan vs Sri Lanka & Kiwi killers vs Tea drinkers. (Newzealand vs England)

Have to say the Srilanka match was a total flop for lankan fans, if it werent for dumb luck they would have had their asses handed to them by the Afghanis - who by the way put up a gallant performance and an exciting match.

On the other hand England were an utter disappointment they toppled over each other at a total run with only 120+ on the board. The kiwis responded with McCullum's awesome 77 runs in 25 balls (correct me if I am wrong) he really used his Indian T20 experience and poured it all out on the field. There were moments of awesomeness in the match by the English but like the commentator said 'too little too late'.
