ive traveled all over the west and once to bangkok (:D). i think people should support the country where they have grown up and enjoy all the benefits of that country. im too patriotic for most of the people!
If its any conciliation I was kinda' rooting for the England women's cricket team as they just about won against Australia in a tight match. They looked good. I reckon they could've given the India team a good test.

Turning to the final, it should be pretty good. Sri-Lanka already beat Pak by 17 runs but Pak have been getting better. Afridi seems to be gaining some form as well. With the bowling on show, and the scores likely to be close & low, a big knock might be the key difference.

Its funny how this game favours the batsmen and has been labelled as a sloggers game. Now here we are, with two teams in the final whose main strength comes from their bowling unit.

Come on Sri Lanka. Can't believe India cocked it up.
I can. Hyped batsmen, good bowlers but nowhere near the calibre of Sri Lanka or Pakistan and they peaked too early. The two best bowling sides have made the final.

If Pakistan don't make the most out of the first 6 when Mathews and Udana bowl, they could be in a bit of trouble.

Although some of their players have played Mendis in the past.

They clearly improved - they looked very rusty at the beginning due to a lack of cricket. But they're a formidable outfit when they click.

I lost £100 but won a lot over the tournament

The highlight was winning £280 when England beat India

im not even slightly concerned with pak winning this as ive rarely watched more than a couple of matched in the last 4 years.

utd dropping points hurts more and that debacle in rome still pisses me off.
