Re: Cricket WC 50overs version - India

It’s interesting India’s role in cricket. IMO IPL has ripped the heart out of one day cricket - fcuk me it’s boring. So then there is test cricket - which I love - but is only great when India-England-Aus are playing. NZ nip at the heals but don’t offer the spectacle/intensity. T20 cricket is ok - l...

If Borthwick intends on continuing with a kick-chase rugby gameplan, he could do worse than keeping Daly around given his ability to kick the ball long distances and chase/challenge in the air.
