Very surprised that Wood has been brought back on the field. Surely England can beat Afghanistan without him and he could easily have to dive in the field and aggravate the injury. They will need him to beat S Africa.

By:
they reckoned Afghanistan would be looking to defend 250 with their spinners; well they're well over 300. Well done England going in to a game with 7 batters and 4 bowlers.

I deserve that....Just tuned in to PMQ's for entertainment and missed this onslaught. I am not in favour of what the Taliban is doing to women in Afghanistan but these boys are breaking down barriers and it is wonderful to watch them play with a smile. Any boycott would have been stupid and achieve nothing. This is compelling cricket.
I love this game Stan |

OK the straight 6 off Overton was officially a slog! But it deserved it!
|
|
By:
![]() Livingstone! OK well lets see, don't judge! |
|
By:
![]() Oh God I thought that was a six! 23 short of a double. A 6 would have left him 17 short with 5 balls to play! |

I don't see ENG doing it. Wood injured. Livingstone back problems. Team look demoralised after that.

By:
Great over!
Such a shame. To see Englund have to chase down 350 would have been fun and real pressure. This is good for England. We have been so poor a good win here will restore confidence and set it up nicely for an effective quarter final with SA. Oh and I think we are in a game! No foregone conclusions here! It is a good wicket and dew expected. |
|
By:
I don't know. See what attitude they have towards Rashid. Fast start needed and wickets intact but they bang so 30-3 is a well worn possibility. I don't know.

No dew expected

Not sure about Smifff at free.
He is a very good player but shirley Butler comes in at 3? Next game if we get out of jail he needs to open with Ducket and drop Salt. |
|
By:
more chance of getting out of Alcatraz !
|
|
By:
Except who do we bring in? Bethell gawn. Rehan Ahmed need for bowling imho but I don't know what sort of form and fitness these guys are in. I guess Salt stays and lets hope he comes off!
Atkinson for Wood. Carse for Overton? Ahmed? |
|
By:
Looks like it's getting slippy out there... maybe the dew has arrived??
|
|
By:
A lot of runs still needed. These two have to break the back of it. Livingstone may come good today who knows but the rest are biffers.
|
|
By:
I like Atherton. he is right about lack of bowling options for us.
|
|
By:
If these two can get the ask below 100 we have a chance otherwise it's Bob Hope and..
|
|
By:
Umpires call...will it be the hinge of battle today?
|
|
By:
England heavy odds on 1.44 and boom
I hate you Butler! Ok need a bit of magic from Livingstone. These are short boundaries too. |
|
By:
Still need 110 so i guess Root has to stay and let the others biff. I hope Livingstone gives himself an over at least before take off.

that's m'boy! Streaky edge! |

Root 66
Wot a shot, stupid but wonderful! |
|
By:
Miracle if they win now. They are the worst of the 8 teams in this and might not even qualify for the next one.
|
|
By:
This game is ridiculous. I have a nicker on England but absolutely no idea who wins this!
|
|
By:
Should have been a gimme for England but like the FA cup with Forest Green against Arsenal, strange things can happen.
|
|
By:
Could the bowlers get the runs that the batters could not?
|
|
By:
Another brainless shot. Just hit singles and 2s along the ground!!
