Addick Addict

202 all out. S A were matched at 1.04 so a massive turn round in the match.

Great game

Zimbabwe 47-3 from 12 overs. #BackingGreen

TelMc32

Looking good for the boys in green at the moment. Another wicket down, leaving Zimbabwe needing 73 from 44.

TelMc32

Huge mistake from O'Brien. Very costly leg byes there.

guinnessaddick

Dot balls needed.

TelMc32

And a wicket helps too!!

TelMc32

O'Brien has probably cost Ireland the game with that poor over.

TelMc32

Bloody hell...wicket first ball of the over. This is a cracking climax to the game!

TelMc32

WooHoo!!!!!!! What a game...Ireland by 5 runs.

Absurdistan

Disgusting if Zimbabwe lost by 5 but the out on the boundary was a 6 as surmised by rope movement on TV.
Would show that cricket doesn't follow the sportsmanship of snooker.
So sad for Zimbabwe anyway. So close.

Saffers are choking even in 2015 I see. Pleased for Ireland, they've got a proper chance of making the quarters.

NZ vs Afghanistan tonight followed by the battle for second place between Australia and Sri Lanka starting a few hours later in Sydney.

flyingkiwiDK

Afghanistan now 49-4. Daniel Vetori becomes the first New Zealander to reach 300 ODI wickets.

Take a bow son!

Super_horns

Bit long winded this tournament.

Might prolong the agony from an England POV!

Some good games and big hitting generally..

Callumcafc

Weather problems in Adelaide looked to have passed according to locals.

England vs Bangladesh starts at 3:30am and should be 50 overs a side.

MrOneLung

Any news on team changes?

Callumcafc

Nothing official yet but there are rumours.

Covered End

I'm hoping Treadwell for Broad & Hales for Ballance.

Absurdistan

How does Broad always get picked?

PeanutsMolloy

I would just like to say at the outset that it's all Bell's fault.

RD is clearly still selecting the team

Can't believe tredwell is missing out again. If I was him I would retire from playing for england. Gets treated like absolute shit!

Callumcafc

England win the toss and bowl first. The rumours were spot on. Ballance and Finn out, Hales and Jordan in. Hales will bat at 3.
