You can't script this stuff

Where do you begin? First The Netherlands take an all mighty spanking, as expected against both South Africa and Australia - the highlight of course being Gibbs' 6 sixes off a van Bunge over, raising the obvious question of whether or not associate nations have any place being at the World Cup, only to have the Irish team convincing beat Pakistan!!

The Paki's can rig a loss with the best of them, but it is so unbelievable that the Irish could possibly beat Pakistan that it has to be true. What's more, if you take a look at the Group D point table, Ireland sit at the top!

Of course the loss came at an enormous cost. Inzamam quitting, and Bob Woolmer dying. It's been an absolutely crazy shocking weekend.

And that's without even mentioning the Bangers beating India.
