    Good start by bowlers.
    Great catch by Buttler
    Williamson the danger man.
    NZ 47 -2 after 12overs

    India or Australia next depending on results at Edgbaston next Thursday
    Who would you prefere?

    Doesn't matter we will probably play both anyway if we win the semi. That said I'd love to see the Kiwis get a shock win over HMP Australia.

    Must be about time Butter got a score as he has been somewhat underwhelming thus far.

    1. Pakistan must win by at least 316 runs to qualify for semi-finals
    2. instead of New Zealand on net run-rate
    3. If Bangladesh bat first, Pakistan will not be able to catch NZ

    Pakistan batting first, there's a chance!

    For me, there's no way they hit the 400+ runs necessary to give themselves any kind of chance. I expect them to hit out trying and end with sub 300.

    Just heard on TMS that Sky will broadcast the final on a free-to-air platform if England reach the final.
    Further details (content, to you lot!) to follow ;)

    Content forthwith, guys and girls.

    Another good score for player-of-the-tournament (unless Starc or
    someone is on fire in the remaining few matches?) Shakib Al Hasan.
    8 scores of over 40 and 7 (seven) half centuries out of 8 innings!!
    An average in this World Cup of 86.57! <applause>

    Fans of the tournament - Bangladesh just shade it from Pakistan, imho <ok>

    Mitchell Starc has gone for 34 runs from 4 overs as South Africa cut loose (at last!)
    Too little, too late, Faf and co.

    Aussie on Thursday at Edgbaston then.
    Really looking forward to this,but not overly confident we can turn them over.
    Aussie have a few injury worries,but we seem to be OK,
    Bat first ,post 350,and take it from there.

    Who saw that coming, defending a fairly meagre 238 against a perceived powerhouse like India? <yikes>
