    (35.5 overs) 269-for2

    two centuries for Australia from the openers, a couple of drops in there but this is going to be a proper ding dong game.

    looks a massive error by pakistan or just a great day for the aussie openers. smith didn't last and maxwel did nothing at all so all the damage so far was warner and marsh going to town.

    This is headed for 400. another first innnings batting total

    What will the pakistan team do?

    If Pakistan had held the catch when Warner was on 10 instead of 160...

    maybe so.

    the Pakistan team are falling short so again batting first seems to be the way to go.

    England choose to bat and could have handed the game away there.

    absolute must take wickets doing this.

    he's hit it.

    I thought it was bat off ground but no dust.

    he is out. massive start.

    Really economical start by England. Really good line by both left armers

    it's gone really pear shaped for England.

    they'll be chasing 300+ unless something changes.

    Big 310 total.

    England are in trouble but wanted to chase.

    I think we are in big trouble here as chasing is looking difficult. openers need a big score each

    Wonder if we’ll get a close game. So far every result has been a comfortable win.

    Not sure if it’s just me but this 10 team
    lesgue with top 4 is a bit meh as well. Just seems to be making it drag on and the odd upset by Netherlands and Afghanistan don’t have any huge impact as have 8 other games to correct results.

    Feel like if going with 10 teams should be 2 groups of 5 with either top 2 going through to semi. Or if want to make more games, top 3 going through, 1st place auto to semi, then 2nd v 3rd in a quarter final round.

    Or increase to 12 teams and play 3 groups of 4.

    we didn't. I presume you meant bowl first.

    I agree every side that's bowled first have struggled.

    you want you opponents flogged in the heat.

    imo we won the toss then lost the game with one decision.
