England, India, Pakistan, Zimbabwe, and some new teams such as China (if they are willing to play of course against these oldies) should play in new world cup. Then we may have chance of winning and some of our players may score centuries too. Of course there is no guarantee that we will win and we may get beaten by China too.
) England score was 115 for 3 in 27 overs against South Africa.Then they collapsed within 7 overs.
2) England was 169 in 29 overs against Australia. Then they reached 247 in 50 overs.Only 78 runs in last 21 overs!! and an artificial collapse. Here we can SMELL A BRIBE !! Am i right?

Coaches have little experience. Tell me who played more than Sachin and Saurav to coach them. Nobody played more than 18 years of cricket. So, if at all they need any help sachin will help them
Mike Atherton should help England team to find out what went wrong. England is missing Mike's service very badly as he is more engaged and is more interested in Indian Cricket and its future. Mike should also sit with Ian in helping the inventors of Cricket to win the world cup atleast once instead of commenting on Sachin's future.
Mr. Speed, also will realise the matter of fact that england has not won world cup till date, instead of commenting on India's performance world wide
make steve waugh as a coach.give him all the power in selecting the team and building the strategy.change the entire team.build a agressive caption under steve waugh.limits the endorement of the players.make them pay for losing the match.
England lost because of out of form Vaughan and Flintoff, two of thier ey players. Also, bowling lacked teeth, and feilding was done obligatory. The couldnt have succeded in going more far...it was fair enough result.

England never showed desire to win. The key players Trescothik, Simon Jones, Ashley Giles were not in the team. What heppened to them? Harmisson too is not there after he retired. Bowlers like Sajid Mahmood, panesar are pathetic.

True, Infact Flintoff was a total failure. ENG Need / expect a lot from Flinty. Anyway, as usual, 4 very best teams are in SEMIs
