Every world cup, we see something that puts us off whether its the poor quality of certain pitches, rowdy fans, behaviour of certain player or players etc. and leaves us asking 'WHY??' Whats the one thing you would not want to see during this world cup?
For me, I do not want to see another South African heart-breaking exit from the world cup. 3 of their 4 world cup exits have been unconventional in one way or another. As an Indian, I wouldnt want them to win the world cup but you know what I mean.....

Moved to appropriate section. I hope we don't have any scandals that reflect badly on the game, be it match fixing, drug tests, ball tampering or anything else you care to think of |

| I don't want to see Mark Nicholas - in fact I don't want to hear him either but it looks like I am going to have no choice on that one |

Not sure he would quite make heavyweight, Ian smith on the other hand, I saw him on the coverage the other day, he looks like he has swallowed a sheep. ------------- Monkey see, Monkey do. |

Six sixes in an over, achieved by Gibbs yesterday, highest total could have been achieved , but lost due to a 40 overs match, otherwise would have seen 450 plus runs. My ask for the world cup 200 hundred by a batsman!
Well how often you get to play two matches against likes of netherlands and scotlands! ------------- so far so good! |

| Of course no one would have wanted such a tragic event as the passing of Bob Woolmer to happen. Right now the cricket matches seems really rather irrelevant. |

I'm sure he was the cause of it. I don't want to say anything too much for known reasons, however does cricket itself mean more than life for those living in Pakistan? ------------- Good one Graham! |
