    Does anyone know why there doesn’t seem to be any England supporters in the ground ?
    I realise it’s a long way etc but you’d expect a few hundred Shirley ( or Helen )

    India don't like opposition fans in the ground. Look at how Pakistan fans and even their media struggled for a Visa.

    I can sort of understand the Pakistan thing but it’s a World Cup so it’s wrong if the home nation dictate away support numbers.
    It should be the ICC … but we’re doing OK so let it be

    There are definitely a few hundred there, the commentators referred to them, , but I assume the pictures come from Indian broadcasters and they obviously will concentrate on their home fans.

    Talksport said that tickets for all away supporters only went up for sale at the beginning of September and none made available electronically.
    That’s pretty poor by the ICC and Indian cricket board

    Yes they did, but that doesn't mitigate their performance this time, which has been woeful. No discipline or application when needed. Believed their own hype a bit too much.

    Buttler supposedly wants to continue as captain. No ta, move him on and serious questions need asking of Mott. This tournament has been absolutely disgraceful.
    Topley and Woakes are cack and just when we think the batters may show a bit of fight they go and put in another shocking display of incompetence.
