    Utterly brilliant and bonkers game.

    Could be a feast of entertainment over the next few weeks. So glad I'm now retired to enjoy it all.

    What time is it on?
    One of my favourite bits of lockdown was setting my alarm to watch the cricket in the early hours and then being able to have a nap later in the day if I needed it!

    No need to set alarm, old man's bladder inevitably kicks in 4/5 am.

    Bangladesh nearly lost because someone born in South Africa and who's represented South Africa can somehow switch to play for Netherlands.

    Bizarre
    Didn’t someone say that rules had been relaxed for emerging countries like Holland to have classier players.
    It’s a bit like rugby league giving priority to southern and foreign teams ( Toronto ! ).
    I suppose it has worked with Catalans

    I apologise, in advance, to the Sri Lankan team but I think they’ll beat Australia today.
    Their bowling attack will win it

    Anyone else up? Ireland powering through the powerplay, looks like a competitive game is brewing.

    Decent score from Ireland, 158 for an Eng win!

    I don't understand the insistence on winning the toss and bowling first every time. Get a score on the board, pressure does funny things to batters.
