[biased indian]

It starts in 10 days time

Schedule --> Link

Group A
England
Sri Lanka
Australia
New Zeland

Group A
South Africa
India
West Indies
Pakistan

Only 8 teams and they have super six !!!!!!

Why no games being played in SCG or MCG is it due to them being big grounds or not available at this point of time ??

Not worth opening up a huge ground like that when only 2 people will be watching.

I'm really hopeful of a good showing from the England team, we've been excellent this last couple of years. The main problem though is that we're in the middle of our off season.

Does anyone know if this is on sky in NZ?

There are 9 games being televised. Sky has the rights in the UK so I would imagine it would be the same in NZ.

all the games are being shown in India

Am planning on going to go to some of the games. Really like the Aussie team. Ellyse Perry is an awesome young talent.

Planning on going along to a few games too.

Looking forward to it.

AFAIK they will only have tv cameras at 9 games, so when you say 'all' I take it you mean those?

BI: only posts in threads that mention 'women' in the title.

How did arguably the three top teams (Aus, NZ and Eng) end up in the same group???

India is playing under BCCI for the first time i thing it could be that

I don't think they did. Eng is with Pak, Ind, SrL. Only one team goes out from each group and then there is a Super6.

Aussies suspend Gunn for chucking...

No way! She's been playing domestic cricket in Aus for at least the last couple of seasons, and suddenly two weeks before the world cup they decide she's throwing!

 

[Jungle Jumbo]

Thought she threw it when I saw her on TV over here a couple of years back. Actually, I thought quite a few of the England team threw the ball.

 

[Matt79]

heard she throws like a girl, tbh...

"However the Cricket Australia findings will not stop her from participating in the World Cup, an ICC spokesman said."

Meh.

If Holly Colvin doesn't take 4000 wickets I will be thoroughly disappointed.
