The Ceylon v Rhodesia match is a foregone conclusion although the run rate isn't exactly racking up at record rates. 5.8 an over at the moment although they haven't lost a single wicket after 40 overs.

 

281 for nought down to 302 for 5!

Have they ever played for England

 

Not a bad stand though was it

 

They had wickets available to throw away didn't they but I still say that it wasn't a great total against the bowling "attack" of Zimbabwe.

Inda can't defend a good total against us, South Africa have mental issues in the world cup like they always do and Sri Lanka struggle to get enough runs. Pakistan aren't a threat so that leaves.....Ireland....d'oh.... Australia

 

Well done Ding Dong

Another Topsy Turvy game for the potential winners of this tournament

 

Bell. In the team. Why? Discuss.

 

He's Andy Flowers love interest

 

Its the only logical explanation isn't it.

 

A very getable target for Bangladesh...

 

Do you think? I've not been watching anything other than the BBC scorecard (working...on a Friday!) but it would seem that it's a difficult wicket and that the score doesn't tell the full story? Or are we really just that bad?

 

looking like england are playing to there usual standard and are falloing out of the toruney like a lead ballon

 

I'm in the same boat as you, they've now blocked the iplayer at work so not even a commentary

I thought it was a low score, the pitch seems to be getting damper which affects the ball, and looking at the present run rate it's going to be another tight one

 

This is getting a bit close for comfort now isn't it? Never a dull game when you support England

 

23 wides!

 

OMG

I can't believe it

 

As I was saying, getable

Good old England entertaining again

 

tbh i think its all over for them now

 

You may have a point.

Anderson's last over was a joke.

 

What an amazing India v South Africa game

Tendulkar is the equivalent of Senna or Rossi

Bur WHAT a collapse

This could mean that qualifying is easier for us now.

The night just got better with France losing to Italy of all people

 

Oh god!! not got a good feeling about this match... 127-3 at the moment.

 

Another shocker

Bopara has wasted his chances of pushing Colly out for good, I mean he only needed a nudge FFS.

Bored of the one day game need a Test

 

I use veetle.com on iphone/android.

If any team in our group are capable of performing badly its the West Indies. There is still hope I tell you.....

 

243 isn't an awful total and we only fell 2 overs short.

down to our bowlers now, come on boys..

 

46 without loss after 5

I may as well turn the commentary off now

 

I've just come back from lunch and wished I hadn't. This is bad.

 

It's improving, hardly the conventional scorecard with Tredwell and Bopara plastered all over it

 

you love him, just admit it

 

7 overs remaining. 21 runs required. 1 wicket remaining.

Who's feeling the most pressure
