That’s Malan, Stokes and Rashid. Just need another 8for the rebuild.

Fucking Root is becoming a village idiot - play your fancy shots when you’re in form, not when you’re playing shit. He used to be a very intelligent cricketer

Need to snuff these out soon as possible for NRR to give a decent top 8 chance.

7th in the table on -0.88 NRR now. All eyes on Sri Lanka (v NZ) and Bangladesh (v Aus) to see what we need to do against Pakistan.

I fully expect Sri Lanka and Bangladesh to lose their games quite comfortably.

The Ceylon massive loss makes it look almost impossible not to finish top 8 now.

Yeah what a boring way to finish the tournament.

Afghan's did well to recover but the score won't be enough to catch NZ even if SA are bowled out for zero. There needs to be a lot of no balls and sixes to keep in mathematically at the interval.

Not only are we coming home, so is the Champions’ Trophy in a couple of years time.

The ECB inquest will be interesting.

"What can we do to improve the one day game?"

"Pay more than the IPL?"

"Can't afford that..."

Playing some domestic 50 over cricket would help.
