Problem is being good isn't necessarily good enough. England fixate ( in white ball in particular) on the need for something different. Not always a good policy. Don't tell me Willey & Jordan are better options than Woakes in any form of the game. I suppose Archer and Stokes walk back in but...

Always thought the cricketers kicking a football around pre-match was a bit daft. Curran shows there was method behind the madness 😀

Hungary exceeded everyone's expectations.pre- tournament odds on for zero points. Locals here thrilled with effort and competitiveness. It's a really thin player pool here ATM. National team huge but League football really weak. End sums up the passion for the national side. Hajrá!!

My house will be unbearable (possibly even divorce) if somehow we end up playing and losing to Hungary :)

Been a few players come out after they've finished playing. A couple of players that were thought to be good enough to be drafted weren't after coming out before the draft. Maybe that's why college players aren't coming out still. Does Nassib make a difference there - probably going to take a...

Sounds strange after recent seasons but also hats off to Honda for a good engine that doesn't breakdown all the time

Perez. Big plus for Red Bull. More experienced than their recent 2nd drivers. Great tyre manager which is massive in terms of strategy Vs Mercedes in that he may not win races but can severely disrupt Mercedes race plans.

It's "off-track" stuff where Red Bull have made a big jump on Mercedes as well plus having a better car. Pit stops better, strategy better (although helps having the better car). Possibly the number of staff Red Bull have been recruiting (and still are) from Mercedes making an impact. Over 50...

Budapest in party mood. They're loving that result. They know they're not a good side but they admire the fighting spirit.

Traffic stopped on one of the main streets as people jumping out of their cars, engines running, going mental 🤣

Hajrá! Hajrá! This place just gone ballistic

Who is commentating this for BBC? Still can't get hardly any of the Hungarian names right :) Another note it's boiling hot here (33 and heavy) today so players going to tire.

All in all pretty pathetic. Don't seem to have a goal threat if Kane isn;t right on it. (and he gets pretty little support in the right areas).We're set up as a 1-0 team and it's too negative.

Not committing enough forward. Keep getting Kane on his own in the box with 4/5 Scottish defenders. Then 3 Vs 3 around the edge of the box. This is Scotland we're playing not one of the top sides.. Way too passive

Having watched his red ball bowling earlier in the season hard to see why he wasn't getting more at previous counties. Thought he's looked threatening in all forms

That's a kick in the proverbial. Deflection off a miscue

Went ballistic around me then.

Lot of talk about who will win this group - France, Portugal or Germany. Watch out for the mighty Magyars - real party atmosphere in the City this afternoon. Hajra Magyarorsag !!! :)

Watch some of the "great" white ball batsmen and they still build an innings (even if they are in early during the powerplay). Accelerate through their innings. England have so many coaches (may be too many) some obviously not doing their job properly. Other issue is Root really the right...

Village does sum up some of the batting. Honestly thought for some of the dismissals I could have been watching a T20 run chase.
