Neither of the two qualifiers won a game yet. 4 big losses one close game, and it will be 5 big losses tomorrow.

They play each other on Sat though.
 
Just in from work. I see the Aussies living down to their reputation of moaners. And they call us whinging poms! How can two countries so close (as close as anything can be down there) be so different in character. The New Zealand lads come across as a decent bunch, whereas the Aussies... well, you make up your own mind about them!
 
Missed it. Had to nip out. Saw Warner’s tantrum before though.

Hopefully a 3rd Aussie defeat incoming.
To be fair, and I don't want to be towards David Warner as he is an odious individual, he didn't look out lbw. I'd have been pissed as well if it was me. Anyway fuck him.

To be fair you only have to look at us and having those Rag cunts as neighbours. Pretty easy to realise how to behave and act graciously when you've got the biggest set of horrible cheating bastards on your doorstep.

It was more out than Bairstow’s one yesterday. It looked less out because he’d wandered across too far.

"But the Netherlands have enough quality to upset any side in the competition. They are not just here to make up the numbers. They are here as one of the top ten sides in the world."

TMS employing someone who hasn't a clue.
 
Would be nice for England if this gets rained off as SA would have dropped a point then.

From a position of feeling like we are out following that dismal performance, I think we've still got a chance. It's between Australia, England and Pakistan for that final spot realistically. We've lost a game we really shouldn't have, but beat those two sides and we might still be okay.

That's pure optimism though. Based on how we've played, and Buttler's comments which suggest he'll stick with Woakes - I'm not sure we'll get the wins we need. Weather could play a part though...
 
It is like a National League match 20 years ago.

Ned scored almost double in the second half of their innings setting a viable 246 to defend.
