it’s a shame that with england out, all worldwide interest in the world cup has vanished. not fair on the hosts really.

imagine if nz had just held on to their catches at the end, they have already scored the runs needed.

Brilliant game. Shame top 4 is all but decided. There are some really good games coming.

Bangladesh has to be the most pointless cricket team. Good economy, decent domestic structure, cricket crazy country and yet they haven't shown any improvement apart from playing at home.

How did Afg lose to this BD team? This WC would have been a lot more fun with Afg at 6 points instead of 4.

Classic of this world cup to finally have two great games and all it does is mean the rest of the group stages are dead rubbers.

Bangladesh have to move past their old talents and look for younger talents.

There's an argument I guess, you'd have to run through a checklist (I think it was pitching in-line, I think he didn't hit it, I think it was too high etc.) and then the umpires calls would all be for/against what he thought in each section. Would add a bit more time to things - but not too much?
Similar to vars clear and obvious error. To establish that, you first need to know why the ref did or didn't give a decision.

It probably doesn't happen that often in cricket though.

The clocks are going back so tomorrow's match will start an hour earlier. Just a reminder so you don't miss half the match.

A long day for a Utd supporting England Cricket fan in store today.
Could say the same for a Utd supporting Indian fan... If India lose this (we shouldn't, but still) and United lose later I'm going to drink for the first time in years
