They played on Thursday but I agree. The way the promotion of cricket is managed on a world stage is so stupid. They're gatekeeping a world cup which should actually be used to drive popularity and interest in the game.

Such a huge miss on their part. They own all the content. They could put it to such good use. It's fucking horrendous.
Close to 500 runs scored in the India vs Eng T20 WC semi with 14 wickets falling, two stunning innings from Samson / Bethell and the game going all the way to the final over...but...somehow...the official ICC YouTube channel highlights are only 64 seconds long. Way to promote the game! Dickheads.
Democracy is a nebulous concept to most people. "Stealing it" even more so. Talking more about it isn't going to help. You should talk about more tangible things like stealing money (e.g. $143m govt. contract going to a non existent company), being a paedo and a rapist, breaking the law etc.
And I mean real accountability for breaking the law. Not just moving to a different role. She's a twunt who needs to be put in prison. Like a lot of her colleagues and the big orange paedo.
I don't understand the point of the Senate hearings. We see loads of videos of these idiots being roasted for hours on end by various senators proven to be lying and also shown to be completely incompetent (and the videos obviously go viral)..but...we never actually see any accountability.
World Cup in a few months, co-hosted by a country bombing an enemy whose key aim is to cause it vast economic damage. Hope someoneβs doing a risk assessment on that.
By the way...the risk is multi-layered. USA is bombing Iran in a joint effort with Israel, a supposed ally that has killed multiple US citizens in the last year, with impunity. If they don't care about their own citizens being murdered, they ain't gonna give a shit about you lot visiting for the WC.
I got it but it took me so long. Really annoyed me.
Today's Wordle can do one.
Hopefully India can sort themselves out fully for the final. Every performance has had an area of weakness. There hasn't been one complete performance yet. At least we were much improved in the field today.
That was an incredible run chase from England. Just fell short but Bethell was outstanding. I was feeling the stress right up to the final over and I did not expect that at all! Oof. What a semi final.

The title is lost - but the 5 wins from Manchester United's amazing UFCC series made #MUFC climb into the Alltime Champions TOP10 with 66 wins! πͺ Great Achievement
They were waiting for just the right moment to strike at the heart of America. Now they definitely won't do anything. They won't even think about it for another 47 years, or even more.
I even refrained from mocking Liverpool last night cos I didn't want to jinx our result. Now I've missed out on the small pleasure of reminding everyone that they're the defending champions who spent 600m in the summer. Worst defending champions since Moyes' United.
Sesko has to be fuming as well. Didn't pick him out with a single cross tonight, I don't think. Service into him was terrible.
Agree. Even Heaven at left back would have been better.
The worst time to lose as well. Basically two weeks until our next game.
They haven't played cos they're shit.
ππ½
Newcastle fans will obviously celebrate the win but when they settle down they should be fuming. Why can't they lift themselves for other teams? And yes, I'm questioning the integrity of the players. 100%.
This doesn't excuse anything at all, but at the same time it's absolutely disgusting.
A very Amorim performance.
I have a deep dislike for these four as footballers. Yes, the starting XI weren't great but they have some credit in the bank. These four are an embarrassment. Do we not have any youngsters that can come in and play?
How many teams have scored absolute bangers against us?
The subs were: Dalot, Ugarte, Zirkzee, Malacia. The drop off is horrendous.
Look at how crap Ugarte is. He's so bad. Him, Zirkzee and Dalot coming on has not helped us in any way. Terrible footballers.
I think the ref has had an absolute 'mare tonight. Not in a biased way. He's been awful for both teams.
Dalot is so thick. Why's he grabbing his top? Amad was right there ffs.
Yep. So annoying. He's had hardly anything to work with.
Bruno is ridiculous. Not having his best game but he's still making chances. Made a great chance for Yoro after the corner and then a half chance for Ugarte a minute later. He's a machine.
