    Khawaja has done his hamstring and has retired hurt.  Are the wheels beginning to come off?

    Khawaja retires hurt. Looking more and more likely we'll face them

    Glenn Maxwell is one of the most overrated cricketers ever.

    If they win this, they really will feel that they are invincible.

    Think India may be the better semi for us

    Bring on the Aussies! 

    It also means that both India and Australia will have to swap venues rather than staying where they are now

    SA played like a relegated West Ham denying Utd the Prem. Shame on them.

    Must admit, after having flown all night the previous night, I fell asleep about over 40.But sounds like a fantastic game by looking at the ESPN over by over. 
    Even though I am in SA, and the game involved SA, the resto I was in switched the channel from the cricket to local footy about the start of the Aus innings - never experienced that before in SA where cricket is a religion - shows the general apathy about the SA cricket team after their showing in this WC.

    Agree! It was great. We left to get food from the nursery 5 overs before end of Pakistan innings. It was empty. Sat on the seats opposite the nets as we usually do and could actually see the picnic benches and grass and the verve clique tent in the food court was empty!! brilliant to see the Pakistan and Bangladesh fans gathering together to pray in the break.

    Quite an interesting scenario now, as everyone was expecting a IND v ENG semi. Never know, maybe B72's comment could happen with an ENG v NZ final. An interesting scenario also in that Wednesday (back up day) looks like rain all day in Manchester, whereas Tuesday also has some rain.Could be a D/L decision.
    In the other semi, Birmingham is also looking like a washout on Friday (spare day) with also some rain predicted for Thursday.
    Maybe one of those situations where batting second might be best?!

    Khawaja and probably Stoinis out

    Bit of a shame really as they are both not very good.

    Is the rest day only used if the previous day is washed out?

    ie if they can make a late start on day one with time for 30 overs each, do they play that, or do the team batting first just have their full 50 over innings with second team batting on day two ?

    Shame for us as they're probably the 2 worst out of their top 6 batsmen. Gutted it wasn't Finch and Warner.

    I see the ECB & sky have announced that if England make the final,  it will be shown free to air. Not sure how that'll work, but I assume it'll be on the sky sports website rather than terrestrial TV

    I read It will be on a sky channel and also on more 4 (Channel 4 are showing the British Grand Prix that day so can’t show it on there)
