Friday, Saturday, Sunday could be the best chance of close game . Otherwise we have to rely only on upsets

Sunday would be an upset if England won, but it might just breathe a bit of life back into the group stage - can't see it though.

This World Cup starting to look as predictable as 2007. 4 semi finalists look nailed on and then India win!

All of the top 4 have to win 2 games to win WC. What difference does it make if they play India in semi or final when you're out to win it all
Yeah that’s right just try get your form up right before the semis. Get your line up right and coming in with no injuries don’t worry about who you face. Try come into the semis on a bit of a win streaks

There's a chance that someone else might knock India out in the semi and all of a sudden you get an easier Final than you were expecting (see 2019 Rugby World Cup).

Australia look good, but you’d expect them to beat SL and Netherlands, and Pakistan have been hugely disappointment. Not sure they’re home and hosed yet.
They look locked in as much because the other contenders-on-paper (England and Pakistan) have tanked as because they themselves look good. (Plus, Afghanistan losing to Bangladesh makes an upset from them unlikely.)

Would take some surprises for Oz not to make the semis from here.

We knocked India out in the semi of the 2019 Cricket World Cup but that didn't help us in the final, it nearly did though, we just needed 2 more fours.

The most important thing is just making the semis, once you get there to the knockout finals stage anything can happen with all the pressure it brings.

The Netherlands falling in a heap. they will be struggling just to bat out 30 overs let alone 50 overs.

In 2019, no one looked massively better than anyone else. That seems to be a bit different here.

Anyway, what's the biggest World Cup defeat by runs???

The Netherlands 9 down now, it might be time for Edwards to swing the bat if he gets another chance to bat.

What a silly way to end a game of cricket lol. Kind of fitting given how much of a non event this turned into.

Fair to say that England, NZ and Pakistan won't be thrilled with that "effort" by the Netherlands.
