Bangers have a lot of experience in playing on piss poor wickets, I am intrigued at how they get on chasing down 114 on this bitch of a pitch v Saffers.

If Australia v. Scotland is a 'no-result' (I'm not saying it will be, just 'if') Scotland will progress at the expense of England regardless if they beat Namibia. It cannot be right that a team progresses because their games against higher rated opposition are 'no-result' ... games they would be expected to gain zero points. I can see the reasoning behind awarding each team with 1 point but wouldn't reserve days be a fairer way?

What a tortuous day for an England cricket fan but England are still in the World T20.

Does "tortuous" count as entertainment? If so both Scotland & England fans got their monies worth !

Could have been just as bad if the England v. Namibia game had been a 'no-result'. The organisers cannot control the weather but they can and should manage it. The rainy season starts in May and the hurricane season on 1st June ... is it a surprise games are being rained off?!

Brilliant over there by Jofra Archer, partially undoing the damage done by Liam Livingstone in the one before.

I do trust Jofra Archer and Adil Rashid with the ball but I worry about the all the others.

My England keep Windies to 180 which is reasonable (10 6s) Now we'll see how they bat.

I like that Phil Salt is small and slight but can smash 100 metre 6s as he has done tonight.

England coasting at the minute in this chase.

No longer coasting this is now on a knife edge.
