England are still in the "can qualify for CT" competition, only need to finish top 8 and thumping Holland might do that

Embarrassing performance from Australia letting a garbage England team get that close to victory.

Poms are out of the world in the most Embarrassing defence in WC History! 😂 losing 5 Consecutive matches.

Losing to Afghanistan 😂.
Losing to Sri Lanka 😂

Poms are done in white ball Cricket....

aus middle order was the major difference this game. Both teams had similar starts with the bat and early wickets falling. But Aus went through the middle period quite well but didn’t have a good launch as they’d like near the end.

I know Stokes top scored and caught up a bit later but he likes to play unusually slow innings from time to time. People can say the others can stick with him but it was obvious his team was feeling the pressure to hit a big one while stokes was pacing his innings this England team last few years showed they don’t like to play that way so it didn’t work to their strengths today

The much maligned Labu, Green and Stoinis kinda saved Australia some blushes with the bat today.
yeah was surprised how well they did with the bat they’ve struggle most this tournament with the bat think Greens getting dropped for Maxwell though don’t get why Green doesn’t really bowl much I definitely think he can bowl 5-7 overs every game

Champions Trophy qualification chances getting slimmer.
They should still make it.
They should still beat the Netherlands in what might be cast as a qualifier for the Champions Trophy.
Beat them and improve the NRR above the Netherlands' NRR and England rise up to 8th. Assuming Bangladesh are beaten by Sri Lanka.
Other results Pakistan beat England, Australia beat Bangladesh and India beat the Netherlands see England stay 8th.

What if Pak beat England very heavily to make their NRR above NZ ?

Just incredibly lame that a sort of but not even particularly close chase against the team we ****ing battered four years ago in the semis is supposed to be a crumb of comfort after a series of dire losses. This team has fallen so far.

Hopefully Brook comes in for England's last game, surely he is a better option than Livingstone even if he can't bowl part time off spin.

We need you plonkers to be competitive against Pakistan to help us make the semis.


We are all winners today anyway because some one decided to send Matty Hayden to commentate Pak vs Nz game
Thankfully the rain gods saved us from a full game of listening to Hayden.

Don't understand why he wasn't included today. We needed the extra batsman

Particularly loved Stokes reminding us of the great ODI innings of Jonathan Trott - a wonderful time for the England team!!

Of course, they rely on that game's effect on their NRR just as much as the effect of the India Netherlands match on the latter's NRR.
All crystal ball gazing also relies on each game being played out and not being abandoned due to the weather.

It wasn't that long ago Zampa was looking cod ordinary but now he's suddenly Australia's key ingredient to their recipe for success.
