England should win this but they have a habit of bottling when it matters.

There are fixtures in the first link in the OP but I'll try to update as well, if I can.
Australia or India to win.
Pakistan the dark horses.
West Indies outside chance.
England, South Africa & NZ usually bottle it.
England is by far the superior team, they have thrashed every one at their back yard of late, and will start as hot favourties
I will do live World Cup thread if people want me

No
Popularity of cricket is decreasing, t-20 seems to be primary reason, ever since cricket was shown globally, this one will be least watched. Additionally, quality of cricketers compared to 80's and 90's is very low.
World cup favourites in action right now. Not going well against the Irish.
England won in the end though it was tougher than they probably expected. If Ireland had reviewed an lbw decision about Foakes he'd have been out and then....
Pakistan are not considered by many as favourites, but any one betting on Pakistan winning this WC will make lot of money
Blue, shall we make this thread as the match thread for the Pakistan series world cup build up (starting today)?
I'd rather start a different one for that. If you or anyone else wants to start one, please go ahead. Otherwise, I'll start one soon.
Go for it Blue. Dont want to be responsible for the whitewash England will give us

Pakistan’s final squad.
Mohammad Amir, Asif Ali and Wahab Riaz are in. Junaid Khan, Abid Ali and Faheem Ashraf are out.

Not sure I’m going to be able to update all the squads!
England's final squad. Archer, Dawson and Curran are in. Willey and Denly are out:

Pakistan will win this world cup. they have always won big tournament when they have been written off.
England's squad looks about the best it can be. Denly being picked as a back up spinner to bat at 7/8 was ridiculous. Dawson is a dependable player to be called upon if Moeen or Rashid miss a game.
Willey being dropped seems harsh but think we've got the right quintet of seam bowlers. Willey offers swing and left arm variation and is capable of big hitting but unfortunately the other 5 are all half decent batsmen and/or capable of late lusty blows down the order.
