    Could be all over in 5 overs if Bairstow and Roy get going but obviously as it's England we might end up 53 all out if they don't :D:D:D:D:D

    Don’t usually have a good ending when you have two batsmen at the same end!

    Usually involves a dog and a bit of whistling

    Thought the last angle of the catch showed he grassed it.
    Excellent catch though.
    Right decision.

    Yep, but that catch though amazing shouldn't have been given. The ball was on the ground, most corkscrew catches usually results in it being grounded. In my youth I had a few like that chalked off.

    Morgan should stop pissing around. All rounders batting at 4 and 5. The best ranked batter in the world coming in no higher than seven. The out of form captain needing runs only bringing himself in at six.

    I thought it was always in his hand. They looked hard enough through all the angles. Out to me.

    Scotland bowled poorly but Afghans bludgeoned their way to 190.
    Longest six of the tournament so far.

    I fear that Scotland may not be up to it, but we can hope.

    The spin twins took Scotland apart and they will take apart a better quality of opposition in future matches.

    think it was Bangladesh who shocked us in a world cup a few years back, can see Afghanistan beating a few of the top dogs in the coming years, a very good team to watch even if today was just against the minnows

    Not a good look for De Kock. Wonder how he feels about the term Rainbow Nation.

    Is it definitely to do with taking the knee that he's not playing?

    Him not playing for personal reasons got announced straight after the South Africa board tried to force the entire team to take the knee even if they didn't want to. Here's an article from June where he won't answer why he won't take the knee......

    Its a strange one isnt it - I am not sure I agree with the idea of forcing all players to take the knee but given SA history I can see why they have
    I dont understand why De Lock wont do it - unless he is really a racist
    Stranger still why he wont give his reasons unless its because he cant stand up and say Black lives dont really matter to him

    Pakistan have impressed so far, battered India and look like doing the same to NZ
    plenty of noise for them which helps but looking good on the field
