    Shame Bennett couldn't get his century but that knock and his previous against Australia show that he is a real asset for Zimbabwe. 

    Worth a punt by a county team...

    He doesn’t have any English heritage by chance? :-)

    Good luck chasing down 250
    Called it.

    All good Surrey supporters seem to suffer a certain delusion regarding their success i.e. if their side needed 256 to win against Kent and lost by 6 runs, they would still claim it as a win.

    India win by 72 runs

    All credit to Brian Bennett, a name that is in complete contradiction with his 22 years of age, not just for his superb 97* (59) in this game but for now averaging 277 in this World Cup!!! 
    Hopefully someone gets Bennett a British passport so he can play for England county deal , looks a real talent.

    England make one change - Rehan in for Overton

    NZ have the same side

    I reckon Rehan will get smashed. 
    Hopefully I'm  wrong

    Bethell has been bowling in the nets by all accounts so might be able to do so in the game too. It's probably going to be a tale of Rashid, Dawson, Jacks, Rehan and Bethell vs Santner, Sodhi. McConchie, Ravindra and Phillips.

    Excellent first over from Archer that had Seifert in all sorts of trouble. A maiden.

    54-0 (6) 

    Not what one expected after that first over from Archer. By the time he bowled a third over, Allen and Seifert had got the pace of the track.

    He should retire now, it'll never get any better.

    Think England will probably slightly happier of the two sides albeit this isn't an easy track to bat on. The key will be to have a decent power play.

    Be interesting how we take on their spin attack on this pitch.

    England 1.88
    NZ 2.12

    Funnily enough, those were the prices the teams were shortly before the start.
