as many have said already, it was a shame that the Cricket World Cup, being held in England, wasnt, final apart, on terrestrial tv
I had a decent day out at Taunton watching one of the 'lesser' matches (West Indies V Bangladesh), as I was in South Somerset at the time, - lowest priced tickets for that one were £20 ... I got a pair of em n took me Dad, who was on hol in Minehead at the time
Shame that SA & WI never really got going
Afghanistan & Bangladesh bought something with them to the finals
Pakistan & SL were disappointing I thought
following England's fortunes was often more than bit like watching the mighty U's
Beating Aussies at cricket is always good ( bring on the ashes)... as was beating India - who's, as others have mentioned, massive support think they have some sort of divine right to basically turn up & theyll win
NZ may not be the most flamboyant side, but ( small wobble - like England - apart) were solid and did their job with no nonsense or frills. They fully contributed to what will be one of, if not the most exciting ( CWC ODI),final ever, and pushed England all the way yesterday.
decent competition all in all , with a final that bordered on unbelievable... topped off with an England win, that was very hard won
