Cheers!
With everything else going on I'd completely forgot about this.

I’d forgotten too so thanks for the prompt giveusaB.

Difficult start too but we’ve recovered it well.

[Burnley1989]

Looking forward to the WC, if everyone stays fit that's a great side

[ClaretTony]

157 all out

[Buxtonclaret]

I'd forgotten about footy too.
England u17 v Italy.
Cracking game. 1-1 and, about to start penalties.

[Quickenthetempo]

Been watching it on sky but will switch over to BBC2.

The more viewers they have, the more chance we see cricket back on terrestrial TV.

[Buxtonclaret]

England out of U17 on penalties.
Who'd have thought.

Young lads played well though.

[LeadBelly]

You'd think England would pass the Pakistan total but it's a bit damp/humid tonight and maybe skiddy on the batting surface so won't be a doddle. Hope Salt can get a decent attractive knock

[ClaretTony]

How big is this Pakistan wicket keeper?

[Aclaret]

How big is this Pakistan wicket keeper?

He's big alright.

[Buxtonclaret]

How big is this Pakistan wicket keeper?

Thought that when he was batting.
He put the B in beefy, didn't he. ( and a few dumplings )

[Aclaret]

Salt peppers the ropes.

[LeadBelly]

Yeah that Azam Khan is a lot chunkier than the average cricketer. For a keeper he's gigantic

[Buxtonclaret]

Jos is loving this!

[ClaretTony]

25 off the fifth over

[Bordeauxclaret]

Park View Chippy with their name on the back of the Pakistan shirts.

[ClaretTony]

78/0 at the end of the power play. That’s a good base chasing just 158.

[ClaretTony]

Salt gone for 45. Really good knock.

Keeper has eaten everyone’s chips I think

[ClaretTony]

How on earth is this keeper getting a game? Two easy catches dropped now.

[Buxtonclaret]

Oooops.
Dropped another.

[ClaretTony]

Take it back - he’s caught Buttler

[Buxtonclaret]

3rd time lucky.
Good knock, Jos

Perhaps its a bit like we used to put the "larger" (can't say fatkid anymore its non PC) lad in goal in the School playground

[Bordeauxclaret]

Bairstow looks like he’s put a bit on as well.
Probably plenty of gym work.

[Buxtonclaret]

Certainly stay 'hit' for Johnny.

[ClaretTony]

Comfortable win with four and a half overs to spare

[LeadBelly]

Very efficient win. Bowled/ fielded pretty well, batted very well. Wrapped that up more comfortably than I expected.
A lot of competition in the world cup though, they'll have to keep that standard up at least to get anywhere

[Terry Cochrane]

Not sure about Wood in this format. Can be very expensive. Rashid the pick of the bowlers for me. 2-27 off 4. Magnificent and Liam Livingstone chipping in with a double wicket maiden near the end.
