Cricket

tbh I just want someone called Gubbins to play for England, that and Stokes-Foakes-Woakes in the same team

Moeen!!!! What a catch!! Wow!!!

Taking Stokes off at 48no feels wrong

This could be all over today

10-3

I think that's probably innings of the century so far?

Perera? Extraordinary - against, Steyn, Rabada and Philander, too.

Well, not the injured Philander, but yes

Some incredible batting happening here. England going to get a gigantic total if these 2 can keep going.

Going to be fun watching Chris Gayle in reply for sure.

Buttler 100 in 60 balls.

Morgan 100 in 86 balls

World Record for most sixes in an innings goes to England.

Buttler out for an amazing 150

418 - 6.

what a game

Windies not being v respectful here

Awesome.

Thought Gayle was trying to finish it inside 10 overs, i'm sure the sponsors will have a word

So glad they cut down the number of nations, the telly people just would not like all the one sided results.

Seems like teams are getting nosebleeds having to bat beyond 20 overs.

Bangladesh bucking the trend by building a useful total against SA.

Excellent from Bangladesh.

Pakistan at over 6 an over for first 12 against England.

Moeen's just got a wicket though.

Great over from Ali.

Zindabad!

Not sure if that was more 'lol england' than it was 'lol pakistan'

england can't field that badly again, surely

sri lanka bringing the bad

Duckworth-Lewis to the rescue?

these guys tried to run a cricket world cup in ENGLAND?? hello?? i dont know if you noticed, but theres rain there? U gotta use your heads folks

Just the 386 runs for England.

Plunkett gets 27 off 9 balls at the end

afghanistan just can't keep a good thing going with the bat

Windies at 55-3 in the 14th over

Bangladesh smashed it v. Windies today.

When City stick 9 past Burton it's 'vulgar'; when Morgan hits 17 sixes off Afghanistan, it's a thing of majesty. Discuss.

In both instances it's gotta be done tbf

Tho run rate, etc

Afghanistan have a credible international spin-bowling attack, is the difference

Rashid went for 110 off 9 overs. Oof.

He finished on 3-66 after 10

I was meaning the Afghan spinner, Rashid Khan - got carted all over the place. He's been a brilliant bowler for the last couple of years but it's not happening at all this World Cup. I can only assume it's the conditions.

No patronise intended but Afghanistan have at least had a go every match

The Afghanistan cricket team is on a different level to Thailand's women's football team.

Our first thriller here

that was great, Williamson hitting that six to tie the scores and reach his hundred

that was a great moment as I kept thinking to myself that he's more like Root, a touch player, doesn't hit many sixes then BANG.

Turned into a game this

Turned into a Sri Lanka win this

England needed being taken down a peg or two tbh.

Took themselves down imo. Malinga was good tho.

Two NZ ducks in the first over vs. Windies. India labouring somewhat vs. Afghanistan.

surely this cannot happen

Needs a spectacular last over.
