i think after todays performance England have a great chance of winning this World cup.

I think they have a great all round side compared to the other teams. I also do not believe in the talk that they are tired due to the long Aussie series.

The only problem i see is if they can keep up the good batting performances.

i agree with Leo bar Strauss and Bell it just did not happen.
Lets be fair with some of the Indians on fire with the bat any bowler would have struggled today

I just enjoyed watching the game win or lose what a game and some great players some of the best around...

From what i've seen India do not look like world champs to me. The saffa's are looking like the team to go all the way.

Indian basics are very poor: running between wickets (and not just the short run) and ground fielding is of a club level sometimes.

They are relying on their skill levels with the bat to get them out of trouble I'm my view, carrying a few passengers in the field with the older players.

Personally I think Yuvraj cost India around 25 runs when he batted. He couldn't time a thing, yet he's never interested in singles to rotate strike. His ego is outweighing his productivity to the team. His living on passed glories.

and they have a high percentage use of runners too. i'd like to see how many they use in relation to other teams and I bet Sehwag has them the most.

Where is Rohit Sharma and Uthappa. . . .

If Zaheer gets injured, its game over for them i reckon. what a bowler, just shows u dont need to be express.

Rohit is a waster, domestic bully, International flop. Uthappa is a wild hacker of the ball.

Zaheer is the rudder of the side, when he plays he drags the rest of the bowlers along into performing well.
