ODI World Cup

48 balls left, will we see them all?
I think we need at least another 50 runs here.
 

Livingstone can consider himself very lucky to be in this team. Years of under performing, only kept in the team by his one out of ten innings where he goes berserk and it actually comes off.

Bloke selling the snide England shirts needs to brush up on his spelling.

Ground is about two thirds full tbf.

I know that Bangladesh are FAR from rabbits these days, but this is not a good look for England. The Comms (especially Atherton) were half expecting England get over 400….but they going to be WELL short of that kind of total.
Buttler scoring at a rate of 200 sounds great, but 20 off 10 balls just doesn't cut it.
Neither does 20 off 15 from Brook or 11 of 15 from Curran.
 
Last 15 overs have been a bit poor like.

1st 35 were almost perfect. How can we go from being on course to break 400 to doing well to get to 370? Bangladesh have done well back end though.

Still a class score though, can't really complain. It should still be more than enough to win.

Class knocks from the top order, rest not so much.
 
Real mess those 10 overs. 296/3 to 364/9.
Believe their own hype I'm sure about coming in and just being able to whack it everywhere.
Livingstone isn't good enough unless he is allowed to slog across the line to cow corner. Brook seemingly has a weakness to spin
 
66/6 off the last 10 even 80 would of been poor but should of been 380 to 390 Brook looks lost on 50 overs which is mad as he looks great in Test & T20.

Still not convinced Curran & Livingstone offer enough is either capable of turning a match with bat or ball at this level I don’t think so.
 
Good for me. I only saw the last ten overs! On those terms, I thought Bangladesh bowled well, with good variation. The pitch looked slow as well, by then.

Clear as day that Brook can only play in T20 mode right now, just has not got the experience in this format.

Livingstone is a luxury player to carry given he can bowl, but he needs to perform with the bat soon in this tournament.

Curran or Willey and right now (before he bowls a 2nd time) feels like Willey would offer more with both bat and ball
