Verdict

Hoggard leaves an echoing void

All the while that Lord's was shrouded by this afternoon's persistent drizzle, the television monitors in the press box were showing replays of a rather more classic encounter between these two sides

21-May-2007•Andrew Miller at Lord's

England look to the odd couple for victory

In any ordinary circumstances, you'd expect a side to canter to victory in a match where half the team registers either a hundred or a five-wicket haul

20-May-2007•Andrew Miller at Lord's

Harmison a midget among minnows

This was a day that nobody had quite anticipated, as West Indies fought back from a dire position of 187 for 5 with the sort of ease and poise that would have shocked even their most ardent supporters

19-May-2007•Andrew Miller at Lord's

Forget wrist positions: just let them bowl

Increasingly, modern bowlers' natural instincts are constrained by the coaching books, and two of England's, Liam Plunkett and Steve Harmison, fluffed their lines with robotic predictability on the third day at Lord's

19-May-2007•Will Luke

Punishing Prior seizes his chance

Matt Prior always professed that batting was his first love. Today he demonstrated a voracious technique and a showman's love for the centre stage, to captivate a capacity Lord's crowd

18-May-2007•Andrew Miller at Lord's

'Big Daddies' toy with the world

The thing about Australia is that you don't know what hits you and nothing can prepare you for it

29-Apr-2007•Rahul Bhattacharya

The Murali and Mahela show

Few will write off Sri Lanka's chances of emulating the heroes of a decade ago

25-Apr-2007•The Verdict by Dileep Premachandran in Jamaica

Some loud thunder

It's a pity that the World Cup had to wait for 47 days for a match like this one, but the stage demanded nothing less

22-Apr-2007•Sambit Bal in Barbados

Watson prayers answered as Australia eye finish line

The finals finally start next week but the increased importance of the affairs will not change Australian moods

20-Apr-2007•Peter English

Hit-and-miss Tigers leave with strong reputation

Bangladesh's schizophrenic tournament came to a whimpering end on a pacy Kensington Oval pitch, but it would be unjust to remember this merry lot for their last match

20-Apr-2007•Sambit Bal in Barbados

A gulf too brutally wide

And so England's World Cup campaign ended with an embarrassment that was perhaps appropriate. Indeed, it would have been a travesty if they had gone any further for they had furnished no evidence so far that they belonged

17-Apr-2007•Sambit Bal in Barbados

Sri Lanka hide their cards for bigger hands

Only an ambush will be able to stop Australia from winning the World Cup

16-Apr-2007•Andrew Miller in Grenada

Bashar upset by inconsistent campaign

Bangladesh hope to get more consistent in their performances

16-Apr-2007•Dileep Premachandran at Bridgetown

A floundering campaign

Another day brings another defeat in a South African World Cup campaign fraught - like all four before it - with the sort of pitfalls and predicaments that would have been subbed out of Homer's first draft of the Odyssey

15-Apr-2007•The Verdict by Andrew Miller in Grenada

An inevitable and ruthless display

Dileep Premachandran's verdict on Australia's crushing of Ireland

13-Apr-2007•Dileep Premachandran in Barbados

England search for back-door entry

England crawled to a paltry target with six wickets down, five overs left and plenty to fret about

11-Apr-2007•Paul Coupar in Barbados

Saqibul stands tall but can't stop the fall

Bangladesh will look back on this game as one that got away

11-Apr-2007•Dileep Premachandran in Barbados

Lara in limbo as World Cup party pops

Statistically it ain't over till it's over, but to all intents and purposes West Indies have bowed out of their own World Cup

11-Apr-2007•Andrew Miller in Grenada

Ireland wilt against below-par contenders

At some point during this World Cup, Ireland were bound to get a hiding

09-Apr-2007•Dileep Premachandran in Guyana

England challenge the status quo

This was the game that the World Cup so desperately needed
