Wasn't ever convinced Pakistan were going to do well this tournament. A semi final place will/would have been an achievement.

More disappointed with England to be honest...

Lots of us are… I think the Afghans win puts us bottom. It’s almost like 2015 where we seem to be so far behind how others are playing it’s inevitable we go out in the group stages.

Well done the Afghans poor Pakistan or not that is a great result.

Roots interview today reported in the Guardian is quite telling and worth noting before anyone jumps in he is not making excuses for our poor performance.

He does highlight the problem thou, 2027 WC is 50 overs so to marginalise it domestically makes no sense to me anyway.

I saw root backing butler which was inevitable

I think butler may be retained as captain but coach prob will need to go

Also player changes incoming, Butler May way as well go and open with bairstow and just take the lead for rest of tournament

Pakistan are under cooked. All those home wins against B/C sides sent by countries made them no.1 ODI team but in reality they have lots of areas to improve.

Still cant figure out why Eng have struggled so much. On paper they have all the boxes ticked. Strong and deep batting lineup, decent spin options, decent seam attack with a genuine quick or two. Why are they struggling so much? Cant believe they were relying on a Sam Curran that much.

Three things for me.

1. I think people under appreciate just how good a captain Morgan was.
2. Archer (injury) and Plunkett (age) are huge losses to the bowling attack.
3. The tournament is being played in conditions where England have never had much success

I think it's never properly appreciated just how important Jason Roy was to the 2019 England side.

Glenn Maxwell. 40 ball World Cup hundred. The fastest ever in World Cup history. Victorian. Adopted Indian. Solid.

My goodness, what a knock! So many amazing stats: only came to the crease in the 39th over, first 50 off 27 balls, second 50 off 13...

I've only seen a few of the highlighted shots so far, but out of those, the reverse hook (is that even a thing?!) for 6 was so nice. The reverse flick (?!) even more so. Gonna have to watch the whole thing back. Shouldn't take long!

Some horrible ways to get out from England today. Look a shadow of the team they had a few years ago.
