Group 1 (Afghanistan, Australia, England, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, Ireland)

Bugger, if it comes down to NRR then Aus and England will have the benefit of playing their last games after NZ. Kane and co will need to be pretty ruthless v SL and Ireland to secure their place.

Or just beat England preferably.

 

[Burgey]

England dodged a massive bullet there

Same question - but Finch.

Ignore that. Weather dominating this tournament.

No games at this ground for next 8 days. Get a ****ing grip on weather by then Melbourne.

 

[Athlai]

Upsets weather and upsetting weather

 

[Heboric]

Awful

Is it impossible to move all the games in Melbourne to brisbane. Refund the tickets no big deal

We should be able to wallop Ireland (should, not will) but I doubt we'll be able to score fast enough against Afghanistan's spinners. The fact Finch is obsessed with chasing when the lineup is rubbish at it doesn't help.

Playing double headers in Melbourne in October is unbelievably stupid

It’s actually unbelievably stupid to play them anywhere in Australia at present

England robbed by awful Australian weather as usual.

The irony of all the panic about weather in 2019. What a load of ****.

Why are Australia acting like they have three grounds in the whole country ? Absolutely no need to have double headers on the same ground..A couple of matches could have been saved had they started early .

The two shittest cities in Aus. No one would notice the difference

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Can't wait until climate change makes this the usual state of affairs in every country.

 

[Starfighter]

If you want a more general measure of how moronic the scheduling is, after having three games yesterday (mid-week) they're only having one tomorrow, a Saturday.

We have to beat New Zealand and Sri Lanka. The rain screwed in the last 2 games. We will reach the Semi Finals
