England should have won this one.. this result will do a world of good to the confidence still..

India prob has the best batting and worst balling lineup out of all the teams that will get to the quarter final...

Agreed on both counts, I still think making 338 batting second was a pretty exceptional achievement however. At least there are signs for England that we do indeed have the armoury to mix it with the very best teams in this cup.

In the subcontinent, specially India its not very hard to chase a total in day-night games coz the dew in the evening makes it hard to grip the ball and also makes it soft and the pitches are all batting tracks.. still you have to keep your head and keep going in the heat and humidity..

well, it works the other way to there's reverse swing that comes into play making batting a bit harder.

England has Strauss. That's it. He's the most exceptional player on the side. England lost because the rest of the team was mediocre.

Strauss batted for the whole team.

India is not going to win the world cup with the bowling they have. They need up pull up their socks and be decent at bowling and in the field.

Exactly what i've been worried about. Sometimes they just can't keep it tight and give runs away far too easily.

I disagree. Strauss was star man this time, but we have people like Bell, Pietersen, Prior, Collingwood (admittedly not in great form ATM) all with a lot of talent.

Also, Chrome gave me a message about a malware site in this thread

Wow!!! What a win for Ireland :D thats cricket for you.. you are over the moon one day and back down to earth the next.. I think England felt they had won the match after scoring 300+ and then getting 5 quick wickets complacency crept in. Credit to Ireland though for not giving up and exposing the holes in England's bowling and fielding.. I think this is a better win than the one over Pakistan in 2007 WC... great innings from O' Brien and Mooney at the end..

On another note... did anyone else catch this story?

so i went to sleep last night when it was 4-110 thought dam bad collapse on the way. Woke up to this......****. England now seem to have the opposite problem they had in Aus. Both aus and england have been playing on different pitches so it will take time BUT this loss will set them wayback.

England probably has the worst bowling lineup in this WC ( among test playing nations).. What are they in doing in subcontinent with so many pacers?.. Its hard to win a game here without decent spinner and england only got one..

Not the case, we have been using Yardy as well.

uh what... broad and anderson by stats over the past two years are some of the best in the world. swann is one of the best spinners. Australia is the only team with a full pace attack. Every other team have a full-time spinner. Only the subcontinent teams have two frontline spinner every other team have a frontline and lesser known newer spinner.

did you miss this part at the end of the article?

This article is a work of fiction.

I am talking about current form.. England gave up most run compared to any other country in their last 5 ODI's (333 OZ, 279 OZ, 292 NET, 338 IND, 327 IRE)..

Yeh by form they are rubbish.... by stats they are decent. i hope they get knocked out first round or go to the end so other teams have an easy path but they are well on their way.

I am not sure about the malware, i have copy pasted the ICC Cricket Logo and Time-Table from wwwdotfulllytimepassdotcom..

It's my mistake if that site has a malware...

On the topic, this world cup is getting interesting, some good matches, one fantastic tie game and one or two unexpected result i.e Bangladesh bowled out for 58 runs by West Indies..

Zimbabwe are the only team in this world cup with 5 genuine spinners in the playing 11..

Ray Price opened the bowling for them in the last 2 games and has been brilliant..

Not surprisingly, their bowling rate is impressive, 18 overs an hour!

    • OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in February, OpenAI first announced Lockdown Mode for users who want the most comprehensive protection from potential attacks. At the time of the announcement, the company mentioned that this feature was available to a small set of highly security-conscious users, including executives or security teams at leading organizations. Today, OpenAI announced that Lockdown Mode is now rolling out to all personal ChatGPT accounts, including Free, Go, Plus, and Pro, and also self-serve ChatGPT Business accounts. Users can enable the feature from ChatGPT Settings > Security when it is available for their account. When Lockdown Mode is enabled, ChatGPT limits or disables several features that connect to the web or external services. These include live web browsing, Deep Research, Agent Mode, and more. Here is the complete list of services that will be disabled in Lockdown Mode: Live web browsing: Web browsing is limited to accessing only cached content. Search results may be limited, unavailable, or stale. Image support: ChatGPT may not display images in regular responses or retrieve images from the web. Users can still upload image files, and image generation remains available where it is otherwise available. Deep research: Deep research is disabled. Agent mode: Agent mode is disabled. Canvas networking: Users cannot approve Canvas-generated code to access the network. File downloads: ChatGPT cannot download files for data analysis. ChatGPT can still operate on your manually uploaded files. It is important to note that Lockdown Mode does not completely block prompt injections from appearing in content that ChatGPT processes. For example, a malicious instruction could still be present in an uploaded file or cached web content. However, the mode is designed to reduce the ways such an attack could send sensitive information outside the conversation. Along with Lockdown Mode, OpenAI today also announced that the Active sessions feature is now available across ChatGPT accounts and workspace types. This feature allows users to review where their account is signed in across devices and end sessions if required. A session will have the following information displayed: Device or browser information. First-party app context, such as ChatGPT, Codex, or API Platform. Approximate location. Sign-in date and time. Whether the device is a trusted device. Whether it is your current session. OpenAI highlighted that the Active sessions feature will not be available for accounts linked to an organization’s single sign-on setup, including SAML or OIDC.
    • with LSTC and ESU, moving to w11 or linux because w10 suddenly will not work when in reality it works and its a better choice, of course there are also developers that only test in 11 or force you to have TPM and Secure boot for the sake of "better security" in games. or most likely people is buying new PC that only ship with 11
    • with LTSC and ESU there are still viable as a stable platform not that they care and let people deal with w11 crashing and burning every month support mean shet if the platform is trash
    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.
