Frank Duckworth of Duckworth Lewis fame has died. R.I.P He was 84, but after adjustments for a rain delay was 67.

The Leicestershire no 8 scored 243 off 127 balls (including said destruction of Robinson). 21 sixes!! They narrowly lost chasing a massive target. Incredible
South Africa V Afghanistan, pitch ruined the game , you would have more consistency if bowling on a sheet of corrugated tin
Disappointing - especially for a S-F. The organisers have some explaining to do - scheduled the tournament when they should have known there was likely to be rain around, many games played on substandard pitches (particularly the drop-in pitch in New York) and teams and fans shunted around a large geographical area, making it difficult to plan ahead.
Difficult to plan ahead, unless you are India who apparently always knew they were going to play in Guyana if they got to the semi final (I am advised, need to confirm by other sources). And in commemoration to Frank Duckworth, the amended Duckworth-Lewis method is being applied to the current India/England game. Basically if the game doesn't complete then India win.
Wickets now but England facing 160+ on a track that's now stopping and turning sideways! It will be a miracle if they pull this off.
Kuldeep, Axar and Jadeja will be hard to score off. And there’s Bumrah! Oh dear The bookies have India 4/11, England 21/10 - they’re not usually wrong
Unless Brook can do a de Villiers impression (which he has done on the odd occasion, to be fair), England are out
