So what's the big deal? England's never won d world cup so y d sudden outcry? Have they ever threatned 2 win?


Question:
We must admit that their are fields of endeavour peculiar & particular to certain Races, Tribes, & even regions. Like football to the Latinos & the upcoming Africans, tennis to the East Europeans etc , etc. This does not mean that the necessary skills cannot be learnt & perfected; but it's an edge to have the gift. The USAs' cosmopolitan nature has afforded it the human resources & its boundless wealth combined with its entrepeneurship has allowed it to advance or try to advance itself in every sport. England has become cosmopolitan but is it harnessing its resources? Is the govt. giving enough incentives for sports? Are the businessmen interested in investing in sports? Look at the trend in football; the Americans & Russians are buying up faster than the English team is scoring goals! Lastly I believe English cricket needs a lot of oomph. They need to be spiked up by something. Look at the Aussies, they are on fire from the 1st ball no matter the loss of wickets. Belief is lacking

Answer:
Yes they were cheated out of a victory in 1992 by a ball tampering Pakistan team. Have lost another two finals too
yes
What a joke, only in America would teams declare themselves world champions in a sport that only they play. you're a bunch of losers, if you can't compete at it you buy into it, and then trade off of the skills of others, pull you're head out of your arss
I don't think there HAS been an outcry. We do threaten to win, until we start playing, then everyone says, "here we go again" and loses interest.
Yes, I agree that self belief, determination and mental toughness are lacking in the England Cricket Team.
yes
Huh??
It is not so much a case of belief is lacking, more of a case of skills and procedure. We are running the team almost 10years behind some of them in levels of fitness, style, agression, etc.
never
That's an interesting point about different races being more 'talented' at particular things. Particularly interesting in that Australia and England have many similarities fundamentally. I think, as you mentioned later, that resources have alot to do with potential success. There is certainly no shortage of resources devoted to sport (and cricket) in Australia.
