WHO the fuck cares about rugby and especially cricket? And don’t come at me with Indians. You don’t see me spamming how Germany is the greatest sports nation for being the only country with world championships in football, field hockey, and handball
England obviously is good overall

Boasting about success in sports played exclusively in the commonwealth is practically baitposting. It’s like us bragging that we’re the only country with Super Bowl wins. Nobody else plays, so who cares?

Who cares about soccer when the biggest sporting nation doesn't play it?

We’re on a heater against South American teams atm, drawing Brazil and smashing Uruguay. Englands never beaten us when it counted and we’re somehow undefeated against Portugal. Spain we beat in the confederation cup and France had to equalize against us the last time we played them

>b-but those are friendlies
When else do we play them?

>>153711931
nothing he's a seething kiwi who'd be celebrating if they won in the same way

the final was technically a draw and england won on a tiebreaker (most boundaries scored) which was the rule going into the game
>>
>>153690127
as you can see from the map, other non-paki nations have won the cricket world cup. it's a global sport no matter how much you seethe about it.
