Looks like India will go through to the final without a ball being bowled
Hope South Africa stuff them in the final
The sooner they stop bowing to the demands of the BCCI the better

It's not raining, forecast is good for rest of the day, pitch inspection imminent and plenty of time for a full match never mind a 5 over a side slog.
Why does it look like India will get the walkover?

From what I hear, we have until about 9.40 our time to get the match started if it has to resort to 10 over slog.

4.45 start apparently. Toss in 10 minutes. Perfect for my drive home.

rain seems to have played into Eng favour… massive pullback after Rohit’s onslaught. Under normal circumstances Livingston might have gone for 12-15 runs an over, but now going for 4
The bounce will be however be a worry.. if the pitch improves in the second half, then it should be an easy walk for Eng

Very disappointing crowd for a semi final of a WC.
And I’m slightly concerned that chasing 160-170 on this pitch against a very good Indian attack may be a struggle. Hope I’m wrong.

Where on earth are the crowd and the England fans? It definitely robs the semi final of atmosphere. Not improved by Morgan's drone in commentary.

I blame BCCI…
Apparently all Indiab tickets sold out but English team, media and fans did not know which venue they would be playing SF.. but now too late as no hotels, flights or tickets available
Oh dear. England making a proper mess of this.

Looking at the umpire's face I don't think he can believe that Curran has reviewed that. It was plumb.
And I know desperation is creeping in, but that is a shocking review from Sam Curran. Trapped well behind his crease by a ball hitting all three.

I've never seen Livingstone bat for a draw before. This is Boycott-esque.

do they have a flight to catch tonight? It’s turning out to be a procession ..
I would have taken moaning about a rain cancelled match over this
