Plunkett is no mug with the batter, has been a big hitter for years.
Afghans collapsing.
Missed Plunkett so bad last game
Brilliant. Shows what we missed against Pakistan.
Plunkett should be picked ahead of Rashid going forward.
Under 400. Take that!
Afg batsman manages to drag a leg side wide straight into the hands of the point fielder.
Wood, but yeah. He needs to be in the side.
1 run from 27 balls, what a lad.
Joffrey Archer bowling well.
The run rate is gonna get big very quickly.
Archer is an absolute dream isn't he?
Joffra too hot to handle.
Whats wrong with Tamim? Unusually slow this tournament.
@MJJ Neesham is ruining our bowling machines 
Ffs what a cnut! Let the others take some wickets.@MJJ Neesham is ruining our bowling machines
He's slightly injured. He shouldn't be playing, Liton Das should be opening instead of him.
My boy carrying the side again
fecking Mithun waste of space
Shakib wow!
means nothing when there's no intent shown by anyone else.
Really odd way to chase. Barely stepped on the gas.
Wondering if the reason is preserving the run rate, in an essentially lost cause?
They've not done a great job of doing that. Still 130 runs behind.
Guptill gone first ball. Game on?
Indeed. Bangladesh are hard to figure out in the best of times.
Shakib and Mushfiqur aside, their batting is very average.
Such a limp performance
Bangladesh won't be fielding first again, their whole team is built on the idea of getting a decent score and trying to defend them. Their bowling had no bite today and England were really comfortable. England would probably have fielded first so losing this toss was a proper blessing.
Why has Mahmudullah been going so slow too? Always thought of him as the big hitter down the order.
What a way to finish. 
You know as much as I do bro
Think Bangladesh decided after the opening Archer spell they weren’t going to win the match and it then became a case of trying to hit a decent score without finishing all out for the sake of the run rate.
Yeah Bangladesh just had a net.
NZ has had a very easy first three fixtures. Probably the three easiest teams of the tournament or on paper atleast.
This is as far as their winning run goes.
Biggest game of the tournament so far, coming up next. I hope it's a good game because I've nothing else to do today!
Day 11: Australia vs India
The two most balanced sides in the tournament. World class bowlers and batsmen on display. Can't wait to see how these match ups unfold.
