Ran out of cider?

I don't know if he's still there, as I haven't been to a game for the best part of a decade at Taunton, but there used to be a fella that would spend the entire game pissed out of his mind singing "I am a cider drinker". During Championship games, with the attendance at around the 100 mark he was the only thing you could hear in about a five mile radius.

Thought we saw the best and worst of both teams today. Aussies probably used up a life in that game, Pakistan will look back at important moments where they threw wickets away to poor deliveries. 

Pakistan done and dusted alongside SA, Afghanistan and probably Bangladesh. 

Will Australia win the tournament? Not for me Bob, they just can't put a whole performance together. That could change mind, but I think they look to vulnerable. 

On a side note. Those Aus commentators just chat bollocks when they are doing their stint in comms. They change their views like the weather.

They're extremely talented but sadly, collectively, thick as fucking pig shit.

 

Seemingly have no interest in the absolute basics of the sport.

Couldn’t agree more, so frustrating, always had a soft spot for Pakistan from the days of Imran Khan so always root for them but Jesus the brainless cricket at times

Can never tell with Australia but they look a level below India and England for me and for the reason you allude to. Still dangerous though

I think all the so called top teams are dangerous on their day, I just can't see the Aussies winning this. Mind you, if they make the semi's anything can happen, especially with the weather and the toss handing either team in a match a huge advantage. You have to commend the groundsmen so far in this WC. Most of the pitches used have given something to both Batsmen and Bowlers.
