Thank god we have have Cook to play spin in Sri Lanka and....

I don't think the Dutch should get too carried away - after all, they've only beaten one of the minnows!

Good to see the post match interviews for this one!

Nass interviewing giles was great.

Nass interviewing giles was great.

Haha yeah he didn't hold much back did he!

Bit odd that it's taken the organisers and icc until the last game of the group stages to realise there is a spray to reduce dew. It's been used in cricket in other parts for ages.
England probably wouldn't have scored as highly in those 3 previous d/n games and the management wouldn't have been able to kid themselves about the batting

That odi against Scotland in May might be interesting.

England's batting has been helped by poor conditions, meaning more crap has been bowled. It's not rocket science to have. Priced that. I think some people genuinely thought eng were good!

Giles out
ECB out
Analysts out
Coaches out
Broad out (capt anyway)

National game is a shambles

Giles looked like he was going to cry in the interview with Nass!

Tense game on now!! NZ 23-3 chasing 120 taylor and mccullum gone for 0

[csnew]

Make that 4 down. NZ all at sea against spin

[alexhilly1492]

make that for 4

Rangana Herath called into the side this game to replace ajantha mendis and has taken 2-2-0-3

[alexhilly1492]

oh and corey anderson wont bat!!

[csnew]

Think its better nz don't make the semi's, they would struggle on the other pitch.

Williamson is in some form though, he's a class player against spin

[alexhilly1492]

Ronchi gone now!! 29-5 this just shows how good englands chase was!!!

[csnew]

Had England played in these conditions (without the dew) or in the other group probably would have done worse than NZ are doing at the moment

[alexhilly1492]

yeah but they werent and still chased down 189!! which in any conditions is tough!!

anyway nz are now 6 down for 33 this has been impressive by Sri Lanka and after the crushing of holland as well

Not tough with a heavy dew and on a flat pitch.
