surely they can’t mess this one up

England: Can't mess this up!

Also England: Hold my beer.

Harry Brook: Drank the beer sorry.

Sometimes the selection policy rationale seems to border on the absurd. Brook (on why Crawley was picked having not played a 50 over game for over 2 years) "we like the height difference between Crawley and Duckett"

I think they've missed a trick not opening with Richard Osman & Warwick Davis

Great start, 5-1 against the mighty Nepal

My Sunday plan, get up and have a nice relaxing morning watching England get an easy win against Nepal.

That was way way closer than it should have been.

Never in doubt

Great last over by Curran

So close for Afghanistan, 2 super overs needed for South Africa to win.

Been some great close games from the underdogs so far. Hope this puts to bed the constant 'should only be the test sides at the world cup' rubbish.

IMO we need smaller groups so that a loss for one of the big teams really puts them in trouble.

England weii and truly messing this one up.

Few overs ago Finn was talking about how they just need to keep ticking over and can get there without taking any risks then they implode again.

We were lucky to beat Nepal and now we've lost to the Windies who aren't exactly the hot favourites for the tournament.

McCullum stealing a living at this point

English batsmen seem to have a low cricketing IQ, Jacks and Buttler both got out trying to hit sixes when they were well ahead of the required rate & there was no need. West Indies did bowl well and deserved to win but at 74/1 in the 7th over England should have got closer and probably won.
