England in the finals. Hmm!!

Australia is still rotating their players. Watson in for the finals. It would be interesting. If a team takes a 2-0 lead will the third match be played??

At-Last England made it Possible. I also Thought Newzealand will be the Oponant of Australia in Final. But They Failed. Nothing can be Estimated in Cricket. Always a Game of Glorious Uncertainity.

Well Done England. Actually I Surprised that Steven Flemming Scored a Century but Newzealand Lost. English were just Fired after Beating Australia. Is it Possible for England to Beat Australia in Final?

GOOD LUCK Australia and England for the Final.

Can England rise from the Ashes? (pun intended!)

Beating Australia in the best-of-three decider is just the potion England needs ahead of the WC. Their chances in WI is open to debate, but gaining revenge from Australia should be a huge boost to their confidence. I hope that happens.

great job england.

Hatebreed · #57 February 9, 2007, 12:56 PM

Looks like England ain't coming home without a fight. Where are all the Aussie fans?

Well done England, especially Collingwood for his second successive ton. C'mon boys, just one more win!

England Team is Not Bad. Unfortunately They Faced the Strongest Test Team in the History of World Cricket. But In ODI Australians are Not Unbeatable. It has been Proved.

It doesn't Mean Australian Kingdom Has Finished or Australian Played Bad. On the 1st Final Australian Played Their Game. England Played Better Than Them. That's Why They Won. Australian Kingdom May Finish If They Loose The WC. Otherwise Their System will Help Them to Continue. So, It is Possible to Play Better than Australia in ODI. Hope Australia Can Come back in The Second Final. I am Sure They will. We can See One More Match. If They Cannot, Nothing to Say.................

Finaly, Congratulation to England (Specially Collingwood) and Best of Luck to Both of The Team for the Next Two Game.

it won't be easy for england to win the CB series. aussies will win next 2

Hatebreed · #60 February 11, 2007, 05:01 AM

England 246/8 (50 ov)
Australia 63/5 (11.6/41 ov)

Australia require another 164 runs with 5 wickets and 29 overs remaining

This is going to be very close!

Sovik · #61 February 11, 2007, 05:08 AM

what a turnaround for england

10.50pm England's dressing erupts into celebration as the announcement comes through confirming that they have won this match by 34 runs and with it the CB Series 2-0.

Congrats England for bringing back your pride.

Miraz · #63 February 11, 2007, 07:19 AM

This is the funniest result I have ever seen in a cricket tournament.

I bet, if England play another 10 match series with Ausiies they will lose 9 out of 10 times.

Anyway, many congrats to England for the win and for providing the fuel to British press to write 10,000 article about England's chances of winning the world cup.

Sovik · #64 February 11, 2007, 07:46 AM

great come back. they needed this.

Xavier · #65 February 11, 2007, 07:48 AM

How is the D/L method calculated?
England had 4.92 run rate, Australia had a much higher 5.62... and England won?!

Alien · #66 February 11, 2007, 08:17 AM

This sucks. Australia got rattled up like they are some club team. And Brett Lee was shocking. I just wonder why on earth they dropped Shaun Tait. He was doing brilliant.

Australia may have the world's best team but they sure have the worlds worst selectors.

Wickets my friend. Wickets.

At once stage the D/L method was in Australia's advantage, when they were 64/5 after 12ov, but needed 164 from 29ov.

Xavier · #69 February 11, 2007, 08:57 AM

Thanks for clearing to all. Still I don't like the D/L and I hope no-match of the next world cup will be decided this way.

just shows hitting the form at the right time is all that matters. england will take a lot of confidence from this and will be a side to reckoned with in the WC.

ialbd · #72 February 11, 2007, 03:36 PM

Imteaz · #74 February 12, 2007, 04:51 AM

Nothing to Say. It is Proved again "Cricket is Glorrious Game of Uncertainity".............................Actually England Played Very Well. Somehow They Made it Possible.Collingwood Played Beautifully.

Finally Congratulation to England. Never Mind Australia and Good Luck to Both of Them for WC.
