Rain.

 

[Socerer 01]

England on course to claim another world cup without winning it again

Hmm, still think we've basically got about 70% of our batting in the openers, Shaheen against those two probably going to be where the match is won or lost Pakistan to make about 150-170, but we will either piss it or struggle going on how B&H do, hopefully it'll be Gold rather than Blue.

If the match gets rained out half-way on the first day, does the match continue into the reserve day or will it be a fresh match on the reserve day?

 

[slippy888]

just rain out both days lol

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

A fine day for cricket.

England in June May strike again

Can they move the final to docklands stadium if forecast does not get better?

 

[Xuhaib]

Another option is to move it to Adelaide or SCG.

 

[Lillian Thomson]

Sharing a trophy should never happen. It should go to the team that lost fewer wickets in the semi-final.

continued. You should know.. its how we lost the 2019 semi.

 

[White Ball]

Looks like it will be a shared trophy given the forecasts real shame for the tournament

Whatever happens, I hope the weather doesn't dictate the winner.

If both days are rained off, that's better than some 5 over slog or a rain affected game that massively favours one team.

Not so sure about this. We've only got one Jos Buttler sure, but the batting line up just goes on and on. Curran and Woakes at 8 & 9 is full #batdeep meme.

It's deep in theory, but hasn't done so in reality, a lot of the times we collapse in a heap. We'll see, hopefully they won't be needed.

the collapse is because everyone else down the order shirks responsibility and doesn’t stand up. instead they continue trying to hit which is the worst thing to do in a collapse. someone needs to put a price on their wicket in a situation like that. Stokes was the man in 19 world cup, who will that be now?

When we beat Pakistan in the final. I hope we bat first and score 200
