Stunning hat trick for Trent Boult against the Aussies and the Afghans trying to do England a massive favour, 1 more wicket now be nice

The Afghan skipper making a real poor decision to bowl himself - it’s prob going to lose the game for them now. Why on earth would you stop bowling the spinners !!!

Yep - they have thrown away the best chance they have had to be a top nation , he is a young skipper but I don’t think anyone could understand why he bowled himself. Shame for them

Gulbadin ... when the pressure gets too much of you and you throw away your country’s best ever chance for an upset

Fix?

cant see it at all no, not much love lost between the 2 sides and was no weird activity in the betting exchanges, just a young captain who chose to shoulder the burden himself rather than risk his part time spinner

Kiwi batting exposed for what it is when Williamson fails. Not your everyday Lords wicket though it has to be said!
Kiwis be looking over their shoulder just a touch now if they lose to England too

Shame the Afghan captain had to make it about him and cost his side. Great hat-trick at Lords though by Boult. Still can't see England beating NZ

It’s amazing/saddening to see how people say ‘fix’ as soon as a subcontinent team/player has a bad day. To be fair.. it did cross a lot of peoples mind. Not the first over (everyone has a bad day) but then there was a lame duck attempt when he fell over during the run out chance and then he brought himself on again!! One of the spinners did not finish his quota.
Twitter is not kind to him today. I believe he is young and he will learn.
There is no love lost between the 2 countries so I doubt that it was fixed

England having the early fortune here, Bairstow very shaky early and now Roy has gloved one and been given not out (and not referred)

25 off the last 10 and England now digging themselves a hole, pitch is definitely getting slower which should suit England later on hopefully

Anything under 325 would be an opportunity lost for Eng.. Indian spinners gone for 150..
Stokes has been a different man in the past week or so..

Super innings from Stokes, Shami may have got the wickets but Bumrah different class at the death again, just has such control and variety

I see Roy managed to conveniently take a blow to the hand to enable him not to field this afternoon and risk the dodgy hamstring he came into the game with. As bad as India permanently having Jadeja on the field this WC. Long overdue they change the subs laws. No sub for first 5 overs or something similar imo
1 down and should be 2 already
