my opinion is that it should go to australia, not only because it is our turn (i think...) but also because we have better facilities by an absoloute country mile. Compare the MCG to anything, we win
Exactly, India may have more support from fans, but we are cool.rickyp said:my opinion is that it should go to australia, not only because it is our turn (i think...) but also because we have better facilities by an absoloute country mile. Compare the MCG to anything, we win
Saying it is the Aussies turn is nothing but bias. There is no system in place where countries take turns in getting the world cup.aus5892 said:its the aussies turn, so we should get it! No bias

All four of those countries don't recognise Israel, but only two of them are bidding to host the World Cup. Pakistan voted against Israel's membership of the ICC back when they joined, so Israel may see this as a chance to retaliate.Iron-Haggis said:Which countries there don't recognise Israel? I presume it is out of UAE, Malaysia, Bangladesh and Pakistan. Since they are Muslim countries.
What do you mean by that mate?Iron-Haggis said:Which countries there don't recognise Israel? I presume it is out of UAE, Malaysia, Bangladesh and Pakistan. Since they are Muslim countries.
Most, if not all, of the countries that don't recognise Israel are predominately Muslim countries.usy said:What do you mean by that mate?
