The Australian bowling isn’t the best (for me).

West Indies contrived to lose that game, not the other way around.

He hasn't played there a few times to be fair, small boundaries

He apparently isn't fit and its his shoulder, bat timing for the lad, but he bowled poorly in the Pakistan seris

the reality is we have batted the best in the tournament but lost 1

Aye top athletes Smith and Warner managed to cheat so they'd just come into the world cup firing.

I would say today is a definite wash out.
 
Apparently the outfield is very wet.

Groundbreaking idea (CRAZY I know): How about covers that "cover" the ENTIRE f***ing field?

Now we have to wait an hour for the super soppers to dry stuff out, if we're lucky? Amateur hour.

Also: why the 4:19 cutoff time for a 20 over match? Do they not have "floodlights" anymore?

Very poor, all around.

UPDATE: 2 hours of no rain and its called off over a wet patch. Shambles from the ICC.

If you're holding it in England you need to make all allowances you can for shite weather. Meaning cut off time of 10pm and using the lights if necessary and having reserve days for every match.

Glorious in Bristol now btw. f***ing shite ICC
