Beaten WI comfortably 3 times in Zim. Once in the warm up as well.

Pretty baffling we struggled against HK, Scotland and Zim. We should have all three games..

Thank god we got through anyway. Got lucky. Many thanks to Nepal and UAE especially.

Watching Mujeeb and Rashid and maybe Nabi too, you can imagine Afghanistan bowling out a number of Test teams cheaply at home. Tough first ask vs. India but other countries will find it difficult, Mujeeb is terrific.

I love watching Afghanistan play, it's a real pure unadulterated spirit they display. Plus some seriously skilled spin bowling! I must confess I wouldn't mind playing them on a surface that doesn't spin one of these days, it looks like the only way we can beat them.

I was pretty disgusted with our effort in the final to be honest. I honestly don't think we tried very hard at all. Especially in the field. Having Gayle bowl so many overs of slow off spin and leaving both Roach and Keemo Paul (who was bowling really well) with overs left is not the sign of a team that was fighting to the death. I think we should be trying our best to win every game, we have no right to coast it in any ODI, we're simply not good enough.

Seeing Gayle laughing and joking around whilst we're being beaten by Afghanistan, whilst Keemo Paul was running in and bowling bouncers desperately trying to get back in the match was also telling. I don;t find that sort of effort acceptable when we've got a whole bunch of young players learning from you.

Raza's post tournament interview was quite touching. For some reason, I feel so bad for Zimbabwe. Not sure if I would have felt this bad even if India crashed out of world cup.

Extremely critical and basically slammed the ICC for making it a 10-team tournament right next to Swinger Richardson.
