Win win for me either way.
ICC Cricket World Cup 2019

What’s pathetic about it? They didn’t think it was out so they didn’t review.
We won't chase 300 imo. 270 I agree, will be hard.
Ok, but it's still not a flat road, regardless of the bowling.
Just because its a 300 wicket doesn't mean bowlers get nothing, its more of batsman pitch than bowlers.
Run giver giving runs
The way Hardik appealed he looked quite confident, furthermore India desperately need a wicket it’s worth reviewing even if it’s 50/50
Looked like it was actually Dhoni who talked them out of the review
England have an excellent start here. Don't know how we can keep them below 320 on this pitch.
Brilliant viewing from Bairstow and Roy thus far. Destruction.
When does Yadav get a shot, mystery spin isn’t exactly England’s forte!
It looks a very easy wicket, actually. Might slow down over time but with the short boundary theres not a whole lot we could have done better. Thought we bowled well.
Roy being back is not good news for the rest of the teams, vince was the perfect opener for them
This easily looks like a 300+ wicket.
And we might lose this, but I dont think 270+ is a difficult chase. Not even 300..
There will be the added pressure of chasing.. but we are pretty safe, so not sure how much that pressure of the 300+ total will actually affect the batsmen..
The pitch should be fine to score on even in the second innings.

If India win today it won’t probably matter to be honest.Roy being back is not good news for the rest of the teams, vince was the perfect opener for them
Very good start from England. Wicket looks to be a great one for batting. Should make 300+
I can’t tell you how much better it is waking up and not seeing fecking Vince’s name on the team sheetRoy being back is not good news for the rest of the teams, vince was the perfect opener for them
You’re looking at chasing 350 here
Boy have we missed Roy, explosive player.
Yesterday English fans must have been pissed with Afghanistan and now Pakistan fans must be cursing india so far.
IMO Most used line from them ....... India are doing this on purpose.

Brilliant batting from England, pummelling the best attack in the tournament isn’t easy.
Easy pitch or not this is a very good batting by Roy and Bairstow.
Can't see England scoring anything below 320-350 going by the start. They have been lucky though. As I said,they will target Pandya
Likely.. England have started very well and are probably favorites at this stage..
My post was about the posts in the previous page saying 270+ would be difficult to chase on this pitch.
Yeah, but 270 is a sub par score on this pitch.
I don't think new zealand are beating england if they win today. Momentum boost, roy being back and new zealand are a bit shit.

I know that feeling. fecking malik.Even if India can put the choke on and restrict England to another 100 off the next 25, England would still be set for 300+ if they dont lose wickets.. they have some big hitters to come.
The way they are going, there seems to be no signs of slowing down.. It'll be closer to 400 than 300.

Easily a 330 plus game with this pitch and the short boundary.
Dear lord.. this is brutal.
I think we could get 500 here, raininggggg sixes.
There goes top spot.. and we'll probably play England again in the semis.
Honestly, all England need is three more flat wickets and they can win this world cup. They're the best when conditions are super easy. They'll be regretting not having flat conditions in the last few matches.
What a shot.
On this pitch? Should be pretty easy tbh.
There is nothing in this pitch. The ball doesn't stop, not much in terms of swing, the turn is predictable. Even if you bowl the right length, power hitters will clear the short boundaries.
England won the game with the toss, just like the Test series when India toured.

England will score 400 here
Imagine the fireworks if Rohit and Pant are on form. Dont care about the result.. bring out the fireworks.
Need that auto play feature from cricket 2004 - fast foward to 50 overs.
The pitch is the pitch, I'm just glad to see our openers sticking in to take advantage. Between Bairstow's ducks and James Vince we've flattered to deceive at the top in this tournament, so I'm happy to see us blasting along.
