Re: The Official, one and only, Men's ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 thread

Well that's that. I was hoping against hope, stayed up all bloody night in a world cup..... again.

Have to say though it's a pleasure watching India. Team and a half, T20 has sure changed cricket their batsmen are unbelievable.

Sup fellas?

Shame to see Gill go off like that he was playing brilliantly. Surely can't just be cramp, must be a hammy, calf or knee or something.
