Looking at SA and India and Australia, England look like boys among men.

They've basically murdered every record here.

He's a brilliant player. I've said before on here that IMHO he is the best batsman in the world. Anchored, if you could call it that, the innings today and ended up 150 odd not out. If ever there was a role model for an aspiring batsman he is it.

Moeen Ali reminds me of Amla for some strange reason, both play with soft hands and proper crocket shits at the top of the order.

Good knock by Roussow as well by the looks of it. New Zealand, Australia and South Africa seem to be in fantastic form going into this tournament, think the wickets will suit all 3 of them too. Really looking forward to this tournament even though I'll hardly see any of it.
