The Strongest Minnow

[watson11]

hi,
Ireland defeated Pakiastan recently.And they entered second level of world cup matches for the first time of their entry.

so now I feel Ireland is stronger than other list of countries(aiso including India and Pakistan)

Yes Ireland are strong, I Believe Scotland are too, they did good in that minnow comp thingy.

Aaagggh! In the associate competition, the World Cricket League, earlier this year Scotland finished as runners-up.

are Ireland just people made up from the republic of Ireland like in football or do they get players from Northern Ireland as well. I was thinking about this when wondering whether we need the Welsh players we've got (we do )

It's an all-Ireland team.

Just going with the topic, I felt that Netherlands were better, it was just that they were in the same group as Oz and Saf , poor guys. But they definitely had the Quality this time with Ryan ten Doeschate kinda players

Four players born overseas, the EXACT SAME NUMBER AS IN THE ENGLAND SQUAD!!!

And unlike England, they didn't steal any of them either.

My Opinion is Ireland is best than other teams because they are playing well.

in a way you are calling England Thiefs,robbers and you are calling them cheats

Personally I think Holland were a little unlucky to be in the group they were in, had they and Ireland's groups been switched, It's possible Holland, and not Ireland, would currently be the side in the super eights.

I'm not calling them cheats at all. They haven't broken any rules by stealing Ed Joyce from Ireland.

 

[puddleduck]

I notice Andrew that you haven't denied the other two

Windies are the biggest minnows at the moment!!
