    But I really do have to go along with the 'experts' at the moment, who are saying we're favourites to win this!.

    And if we don't win it this time, on home soil - in our own back gardens, and in the current form we're in, then we'll never win it to be honest. No pressure though eh lads lol.
    The format as it is should see the four best teams make the semi final but once you get down to one off one day contests in cricket anything can happen .

    That's the danger of course , a bad 10 overs with either bat or ball could take the world cup away from you .

    One day cricket has got its critics of course, but it can be some of the most exciting set of minutes in sport when it comes down to a run chase, and its a run a ball etc and the wickets are falling.

    If we blow it again this year, I hope its not in the Final again!.
