I feel rather sorry for the poor chaps in the England team. They can't really win - even if they are the best team on the day and go on to win the game and the World Cup. For a win will just be put down to the weather or boring tactics or whatever...........

And should England lose ( no matter how poorly Australia may play and should Australia win on kicks only ) - all the critics and 'told you so-ers' will have an absolute field day.
