i hope england win . because england is no match for pakistan if aussies win then pakistan may have a 50/50 chance if england win pakistan will have a 100% chance of wining you have seen in the past how pakistan played agiants england.

What do you mean England is no match for Pakistan? You can never be 100% sure.. I still think it's 50/50...and if Aussies go to the final I think its 60/40 to australia...but enland are looking good right now..!! I am going to watch the last 3 overs of the innings...hehe...I saw the tv a coiple of minutes ago and 6 our for 213 or something.. thats good fielding and bowling by england..first game I am ever cheerin england..or I cheered them under the natwest series..but not as much as this..I hate australia!!!!

 

[The_gas]

if england can beat the aussies then they will thrash pakistan, simple as lol

 

[brad352]

We only set England 260

 

[Briggsey]

C'mon England!! and also dont write off West Indies, they have the batters capable to knock up scores of 300+ on any day, i myself fancy West Indies to beat Pakistan tomorrow....

 

[Briggsey]

YESSSSSSSSSS!!!! GET IN ENGLAND!!!! :cheer :cheer

 

[jonah]

Engerland, Engerland Engerland.....!! :cheer
Superb win by the boys, what a fantastic run chase. Some of Vaughan's cover drives off Lee were magnificent, text-book stuff (the look on Lee's face... ). Also great knocks by Tres and Strauss.
Well played boys! :drinks

PS, get the razor out Gas, my son .....

Take a look and enjoy some great pics of the match...here

 

[h-mAin]

YES!!! Finally Aussies lost!! I was really charing england for this game, but maybe England will win the tournament..cause Sri Lanka won the asia cup..they were host..England can win this tournament, they are the hosts...Portugal came to the final in the Euro games..China came to the final, can't remember if they won..but they did came to the final in asia games...so I think that England will win......because they are the home team...no offence..but I hope Pakistan clinches it...we need a trphy!!
