Think there’s been a bit of an aggressive attitude with Morgan too - especially at his recent press conferences... confidence is one thing but arrogance will always come and bite you on the backside.

Still think on paper England are 2nd best to only India - they just need to pipe down and focus on the cricket.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Aussie are the best, they are less reliant on their main batsman , i.e Steve Smith as India are on Kohli , Aussie have greater depth and best bowling attack in the world.

I do get what Bairstow is saying here though. Vaughan, KP and others had all been talking about how this England side has already won the cup a few weeks ago, and now they're saying it could be our worst ever performance in a world cup.

Doesn't excuse the brainless batting but the media do love to big us up and then knock us down.

I agree that most pundits change like the wind, but the truth is it's a results game. You don't get the results, you will be criticised.

I still don't understand what is so hard about beating India and NZ at home. NZ have looked beatable for a while and whilst India are definitely the side of the tournament, they are beatable and have a couple of key injuries.

Great this is the issue. You shouldn’t be aiming for 320. Pitches are becoming more dry and are assisting spinners. You should assess and then post a decent total (which can range from 270-300) doesn’t have to be 320 or 350s.
