    Dont know why opposition players shake a batsman hand when he leaves the field. Save that for the dressing room or after the game.

    Can you imagine Maynard Brewer shaking Jay Stansfield hand if he scored a hat trick.

    325-7 off 50

    A magnificent innings of 177 (146) from Ibrahim. Should we win he won't even be given MOM because, for a reason that has always escaped me, someone on the losing side can never win that.

    Players sometimes get a pat on the back from opponents when being substituted if they've delivered a top performance and effectively decided a match.

    There are a lot of differences between football and cricket as there are between rugby and football. Can you imagine a rugby player talking to a Ref the way that footballers do? Or falling down as if they've been shot following zero contact. It's having respect for the game and opposition.

    There's another difference. Since the advent of franchise tournaments a lot of players from different nations have become good friends as a result of playing together in the past or the present.

    We are in deep do do here - need a few immense batting performances here - we can chase this down I believe, but a tough ask

    More injuries than an episode of casualty; fielding sloppy, body language hangdog, Afghanistan treating our bowling like rookies.

    Other than that our batsmen need to emulate Duckett from the last game.

    Win or England are toast.

    It's still a 360/370 par score on this surface imo. We also have the benefit of the dew which clearly aided Australia in our first game.

    Whether or not we bottle it is another question.

    Braindead shot by Smith. There are 44 overs to go, FFS.

    What a pathetic 50 over team we are.
    Brain dead batting.

    Play a defensive shot instead of that shite Brook. 
  • Karim_myBagheriKarim_myBagheri
    Really wish we would play in white. Our other national sides do.

    That couple with the kid should be chucked out. There's loads of seats and they're wandering around by the screen.

    Don’t think it's allowed?  Would give us an advantage as the fielding side would struggle to see the white ball against the batsmen?

    Ahh didn't think of that. Maybe a nice shade of magenta.

    Our squad needs to be IQ tested.

    Good game for the neutrals.

    Feel slightly apathetic as to whether we do it - we're getting nowhere near winning the tournament, side isn't anywhere near good enough.
