    That tail is too long. Jofra at 8?!?

    Why do we need 6 front line bowlers?

    After England did the Baartman for 21 in his last over it was theirs to lose.

    They lost.

    Buttler, Bairstow and Moeen scored 42 off 50 between them. Tough to win with that platform.

    Noone gives a fuck about this tournament do they?

    I mean playing cricket in America is the clue, it's not something to take seriously.

    Can’t say I’ll lose any sleep if England go out of it but it’s way more exciting than this euro tosh they’re churning out every day in Germany

    Ha ha.

    By my reckoning, if England win and get their run rate close to SA, they’re through?

    Which would make SA's NRR worse and, if we're close enough, worse than ours.

    That's not the worst over from Jordan.

    Somebody's done their maths at the bbc:

    If England win within 17.4 overs they will qualify for semi-finals regardless of South Africa v West Indies game

    Don't think I've seen a single ball in this tournament. It's thanks to the excellent work in this thread that I don't have to.

    That ball should've been given as 10 wides.

    Turns out 9.4 was enough
