India outclassed Ireland and secured top spot in pool B. Dhawan bagged a second World Cup 100, Rohit bagged a 50, Ashwin and Shami bowled nicely.

Ireland face a do a die game with Pakistan in their final group match.

Watching the highlights now and Gary Wilson got lucky! Dhawan ramped one straight into the grille of his helmet just in frobt of his ear. Was very nearly a nasty incident!

So why's Sangakarra retiring again? Complete opposite to blokes like anderson and bell who still haven't announced their retirement from odi cricket and are still arrogant enough to think they're good enough to continue.

One has integrity with a life while the other 2 are just seeking financial reward regardless of those around them who suffer.

Are they allowed to retire from one format?  A few years ago KP wasn't allowed to give up ODI's to just play Tests and T20.

He just wanted to make the most money the easiest way and the ECB weren't using him in the T20.

In fact, wasn't it that the ECB said if he gives up ODI, it includes T20s?  They never dropped him for this in tests.

KP wanted to play T20 as that is where the money is nowadays so no England T20, poor IPL money.

Taylor's knock must be up there with bell as one of the worst knocks.
No excuse batting with a SR of 57 chasing 288

If McCullum can slog a quick 50+, the rest of the Kiwis don't have that fear factor.

Nasir Hossian should've been in the Bangladesh side from the beginning. Very talented player.

NZ won but they are exposed. It came down to last over. BAN came close to defeating NZ.

Don't think nz would mind a close game. Tested under pressure with a chase, the players who needed runs got runs. The likes of guptil, Elliot etc
