Yup - clearly we don't have an earthly chance here.

Think we have a better chance against Windies than India. Even though the Windies beat us I fancy our improved bowling might make it a closer game.

India on what potentially might have been a spinners wicket sounded pretty tough to me.

Tough either way. Still prefer to play the Windies over India.

We're good enough to take it this time. A tough shout but there were never any easy ones.

^^ I thought Tango might be in there, not having this reverse jinx malarkey. I'm surprised at Insano. :-)

Yeah I get it. But we've got a good team. I think it is even on the day and just depends who plays best.

I'm not that bothered if we win or lose it, because the turnaround has been great and I think we finally understand 20 over cricket. No need for reverse jinxes, I'm just glad we're there.

Me too. I think our game management has been excellent - especially against NZ.

Was hoping Captain Morgan was finally going to put on a rum show.

Reckon anything below 180 on this is almost a foregone conclusion barring a massive Windies collapse.

See, I reckon 200 whereas Nasa (who obviously knows more about it than I do) said 180. Either way, we're not about to be anywhere near those numbers.

This has just become a bit shambolic. Though the Windies just seem to have their name on this trophy. Every little thing going their way.

Root gone with a ridiculous shot. Our only hope now gone. A disaster.
