    Glad England won so easily - was a bit worried when we "only scored" 305 but seems the bowlers were on good form and with 2 run outs also decent in the field.

    Who we want in the semis?

    Wonder if India and Australia will rest players for their final group games?

    Don't More 4 show the Tour de France which will be on at the same time? I have lost track as I watch the French coverage as it has far less adverts.

    I read it on the BBC website that More 4 is free to air and would show it if England reach the final <ok>

    Usual first day crashes in the Tour de France, but none too serious. Every year you see riders covered in bandages where they have come off, and yet they carry on despite the discomfort.

    Just noticed next week its:

    F1 British Grand Prix
    Wimbledon Men's final
    Cricket World Cup.

    If you had a choice which would you watch the most.

    Guess the cricket is all day whereas the others 2/3 hours....

    The Tour de France has just passed the Cathedral in Reims, reminding me of the occasion I was there at 2.30 am with a 13 year old skinny daughter in the back of the car desperate to find a loo. I found one of those tardis type affairs and in she went. The problem came when she wanted to come out as she didn't have enough weight to operate the pad inside that opened the door. It might have been interesting to see what happened if the law came by as I was outside telling her to jump up and down on the pad. Eventually it did open for her and all was well.

    Looks like it will be down to Murray and S.Williams to keep up British interest at Wimbledon.

    Yes.. Sadly Konta blew it...

    Good to see a relaxed and smiling Murray though.. Maybe he should stick to doubles.. For his mental health!

    They look stunned - hardly scored really .

    Such tight and consistent bowling from New Zealand .

    ECB might be worried about a NZ v Australia final - not quite what they hoped for .
