does england have any chance to win the cricket world cup?

Answer 1

I know it might be a long shot but of course they have a chance. Anyone team can beat another team in one day cricket on the day. England beat Australia in the cb series recently, if England decide on their best line up and resolve the problems with Vaughan's form then of course they have a chance. I reckon that South Africa, if they had a decent spinner have a good chance with their batting. At least England are performing better than they were though!

Answer 2

England do have some of the best players in international cricket. It is however not just the case of having individuals who play well they need to play as a team Here is the latest rankings from the ICC Batting (Test) 1 R.T.

Answer 3

When u ask the question chance then there is some probabality that england might win. Minscule as it might be but it can't be ruled out.
Plus cricket is a game of glorious uncertainaities so can't say.
I personally rate it 1 is to 10

Answer 4

If England is continuing this form , they will never win world cup.

Answer 5

No i don't think that they have any chances to win the cup I reckon the semifinalists will be India, Australia, West indies, Srilanka or south Africa.

Answer 6

Absolutely none at all. Australia are incredibly strong. West Indies have to be in with a good chance with home advantage, South Africa, India and perhaps Pakistan are also in with a shout.

Answer 7

Get real, they can't put two good runs together never mind win a cup, wooden spoon would be my money

Answer 8

Possible but not probable.

England should qualify for the next round, agree?

Then, If either Pieterson or Flintoff come to the party, you never know, do you?

,

Answer 9

The only chance they have is NO CHANCE ! Far too many ordinary one day players (and I'm a fan!)

Answer 10

they are 11 men like any team, but i think they will require devine help to beat any other team except Latvia. (did any know if Latvia will stay away because their super fast bowler fire-into-bail-off is still out due to a broken finger nail?)
