Reply to comment by GamerA_S in Zimbabwe defeats Pakistan by the barest of margin this world cup has been the world cup of upsets by GamerA_S

Ireland defeating England wasn't that a big upset really. England never won a T20 international against another European team (lost twice to Netherlands, lost to Ireland, and there is also a no result with Ireland)

That means nothing except for memes. England is a world cup favourite with their white ball team.

Most Irish dont even believe cricket is a real sport. So if they are beating England, its because they thought it would be fun to do.

Irish India final?
