Poms could win all 3 remaining games, but if the other 3 turn up with their best players performing, particularly their best bowlers, then could get ugly for the poms.

Expecting them to make it though, one more win might be enough

Can say like previous World Cups, the cream does rise to the top.

The teams who have been good the last few years will fight it out

England have 2 matches left against NZ and India. Just need those 2 to do the right thing and Pakistan or Sri Lanka can get into the top 4

If Pakistan beat both Bangladesh and Afghanistan, England would need to win both of them.

Their game vs India is almost a Quarter Final for them.

Never thought I'd ever say this but go Team India!

Not when Smith and Warner played.

Beware the kiwi I say.
Mainly Warner, I think... and Finch has found form - yet for us Guptill has lost his, and Munro is a clusterf**k (and I've been saying that for years)

India are easily the most complete/best team, and usually (but not always - although India beating the Windies is the only obvious occasion where that wasn't true) the best team wins the World Cup

I am on Ross Taylor, the time is now.

He is no Stacey, but the dude can bat.

Warner & Finch play the big innings, but Smith has played a vital role at 3 in the past.

The time is now - he's undoubtedly one of the very best ODI bats - but has done nothing... for the most part he and Kane have effectively been opening, but regardless he's been disappointing

They have to drop Munro...

Yeah, England v India is a big match. Massive. To be honest, I can't see England making the semis. I'd imagine the semis are shaping up as India v Pakistan and Australia v New Zealand.

Ask the Kiwi Rugby League team how this sort of rhetoric goes over Johnny.

Has Steve Waugh developed a drug habit??? Headline on Cricinfo says he thinks Carey is a hybrid of Bevan and Hussey

Never go full genius...

Would like to hear the context. Carey has found himself saving the innings a few times in a similar way to those guys but comparing ability is way off at this stage. He has played well though to basically have to save us from Stoinis.
