No idea. Something around 155? Or am I way out?What's the average score in this tournament, anyone know?
Not easy with a soaking ball to bowl.Crap from Benn to end.
7.24pm Play will resume at 7.32pm as long as the rain stops. Which it won't - the covers are being dragged back on I'm afraid. If they don't get going by 7.32pm, they'll be reducing the overs. If it's a five-over match, West Indies will be chasing 47. No idea how our statistician Robin has worked it out, but I daren't challenge him.
We seemed to keep the 2s ticking, some good runningPretty amazing that England even got as much as 162 considering the spell from overs 11.2 to 19.4 where England didn't hit a single boundary.
Long since stopped being shocked by England selection policy.Which makes England's decision to play 2 spinners even more mystifying.
If that's true, it's a ridiculously small total. Instead of going at 8.05 an over for 20 overs they have to go at 9.40 for five. Absolute joke if you ask me.If its a 5 over game, Windies will be chasing 47.

Nowt wrong with dropping the passenger, just made more sense to have brought in Napier instead.Long since stopped being shocked by England selection policy.
"Lets drop our off-pace bowling, big hitter and leave out our space-filling, fast-bowling biffer and pick the kid who isnt an automatic selection for his county"
Doesn't it increase with wickets?If that's true, it's a ridiculously small total. Instead of going at 8.05 an over for 20 overs they have to go at 9.40 for five. Absolute joke if you ask me.
Indeed, surely that can't be right?If that's true, it's a ridiculously small total. Instead of going at 8.05 an over for 20 overs they have to go at 9.40 for five. Absolute joke if you ask me.
I think its fair enough, this tournament has shown how difficult it is to chase 50 in last 5 even with wicket in hand.If that's true, it's a ridiculously small total. Instead of going at 8.05 an over for 20 overs they have to go at 9.40 for five. Absolute joke if you ask me.
Foster at 6? An already fragile lineup made even more vulnerable with lack of depth.
Quite. The captaincy jizzed up his form and his mind last time and all but got him dropped. Why accept it again when he has next to no aptitude for it anyway? Either the bowlers set their own fields or he follows the ball.Collingwood is fairly awful at this form of the game, shame he is captain really. Still looks quite possible that this will count for nothing as rain is surley on its way again
