Australia won their sixth world cup, beating hosts India in final.

India 240 all out (50 overs)

Australia 241 - 4 (43 overs)

Poor Netherlands is going to be slaughtered I'm afraid.

should make a bot for this or smth

That is all.

_DECIDING TO MAKE A TOURNAMENT THE QUALIFIER FOR ANOTHER TOURNAMENT BUT NOT TELLING ANYONE FOR TWO YEARS AND HALFWAY THROUGH THE TOURNAMENT IS SO PERFECTLY ON-BRAND FOR THE ICC IT FEELS LIKE SELF-PARODY.__

That last thread was a little late

The #Dutch national anthem sure sounds a lot like the 12 days of #Christmas. #cricket #CWC2023 #nederlands #SAvNED #sports

Does anyone know why the paid PREMIUM TV channel for #cricket in the USA & Canada is called "Willow" it just seems like a really weird choice, one in the long string that really makes it feel like they are actively against growing in the game in Nortb America

India win by 7 wickets chasing a score of 192 and go on top of the CWC table. Bumrah MOTM for his bowling figures of 7-1-19-2.
