2023 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Game 36 England v Australia 4/11 1900hrs @ Narendra Modhi Stadium

[BStaff17]

All I can say is, GO THE DUTCH on Wednesday night - if they beat the Poms, the winner of the spoon will be decided!!!

It would really be amazing if they did. Let's be honest if the Dutch win and England miss out on qualifying for the champions trophy.

It would be a bigger shambles then the West Indies not qualifying for the world cup.

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

The first ball golden gozza from Bunter Bairstow was cheered around Oz.

The Poms performance has been bloody hilarious.

Waking up to great news this morning

 

[smasha]

Go Aussies!

 

[chickenonachain]

Watched the highlights this morning my day has started well fat Johnny out first ball couldn’t ask for more

 

[Shifty1]

Nice to send the ****ing hypocrites out.

 

[dogs105]

Bairstow getting out first ball to a leg side Starc pie is by far the most embarrassing thing he’ll do in 2023.

It might make the top 10

 

[Andrew Mc]

If you had told me pre-tournament, that the Dutch would still be alive in the World Cup before England, I would have laughed in your face.

And now we're all just laughing.

England fans in 2103:

 

[The Passenger]

Even in the penultimate over when he was gesticulating wildly to a fielder on the boundary; the entitlement.

Was he giving out to Hazelwood after Haze saved a boundary?

I couldn't work it out but it was a bad look after getting hit for two fours in the balls prior.

 

[philreich]

Wonder how Piers Morgan is holding up?

I believe he sleeps permanently in the foetal position, while punching his Alex Carey doll.

 

[1989]

Australia basically in the semi finals. England officially out and remain on track for the worst ever World Cup defence.

 

[Foucault1989]

What a way to wake up. Went to bed after Stokes had just plastered two sixes thinking it was going to be another classic from the wounded Superman. But once again, the Aussies do enough to get the job done.

Horrible performance by England. Had the best of the conditions with ball and bat.

I guess "man for man" Australia are simply a better side.

 

[Santana]

Feels good man, feels good

I went to bed because of the wounded subman too. But not because I thought we'd lose, but because he was making me sick with his twitching and jerking, and limping requiring a wheel chair every time he hit a six, and then sprinting off for a quick single next ball. Fake ass prick needs a sound talking to, preferably in a back alley with six thugs like himself.

 

[franjon]

Wonder how Piers Morgan is holding up?

He's already looking for the next "...." he can hang shit on.

 

[Greenstar5]

Anyone else excited to see Bairstow get out for a golden duck, but then disappointed it was down leg and not clean bowled or nicked to the slips.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

A quality moral victory by England

I'm more disappointed he wasn't out of the crease

 

[Moonwatcher]

We've literally won 5 times as many matches as England and still haven't qualified for the semis.

 

[TazHawk15]

Dear England cricket team, piss off back home and take your moral participation ribbon with you.

 

[Nicho50]

My oh my how it has fallen apart for England has been glorious.

First they leave Roy out of the squad for Brook who hardly has played, Bairstow has been horrible. Their bowling line up outside of Rashid is probably the worst in the comp.

Livingston batting has been dreadful.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Very unsporting of Inglis to catch Bairstow first ball. If that's how the Australians want to play ..........

Seriously, there are two great teams playing today, India and South Africa. Even if Australia don't make the final of the World Cup, England humiliating themselves on the world stage is prize enough.

 

[Monocle]

Joe Root and the best team on paper comment.

 

[Tugga27]

There is always 1 under performer.

But there's underperforming and underperforming.

Missing the finals is underperforming.
Coming last at this stage is another level.
