Nice to win it with 6

Well done Scotland.

 

[Corky]

Ireland only made 125 but defending it well, and restricting them to 5 an over off first 7.

Only just realised World Cup 20/20 starts tomorrow with to bangers of games.

Great fight back by south Africa … common england

West Indies collapse

 

[waspish]

England looking good here but one good innings can change it 37/5 West Indies

Fan with City shirt getting a lot of tv coverage.

WI - West Indies playing more like Women`s Institute

How dare you. England are never common, dear boy.

Looks tough for any team to qualify out the groups when only top two go through.

WI are always a famine or feast side. They’ve gone for famine today.

They‘re up with the best physically, but are mentally prone. A bit like Pakistan.

 

[zandvoort blue]

at least this won`t over run into the 5.30pm kick off

 

[Citizen of Legoland]

55ao -- shocking. Mind you we've not batted yet.

 

[waspish]

Rahid 4 wickets for 2 runs fantastic figures! Looking at out bowling we have a great chance to regain the 20/20

Great bowling and fielding perfomance, hit the ground running, hopefully England can keep this standard up. I do think Morgan is a superb captain and can adapt to teams playing agaainst as well as wicket.

Let's hope the batters match the bowlers' performance

Morgan should of been giving the test match captaincy and played at 6 very rare you a captain comes around as good as him and ecb pass on him

His back wouldn’t be up to test cricket. He’d have retired from cricket if he carried on playing tests.

Yep. Same situation as Tymal Mills. Can't play the long format game. Even the 50 over game is probably beyond him.

 

[bigstanhibbert]

Only player I think is too miss than hit is Jason Roy, hope this is his tournament

 

[jimharri]

30-2. They couldn't, could they?
