    Sodhi has done bloody well to get us within 4 calls of 50 overs. Watching the Wahs 😞 so no idea if the pitch is dead and that is an ok score though.

    All all round performance from Ish on a par with the days when Dan Vettori used to do everything.

    Keep reading pieces suggesting India are big favourites for this tournament, personally think it could be the most open for a while with quite a few teams who could ‘come off’ in a big game, England, NZ, Saffas all look dangerous to me

    Thanks for posting those @Daffy-Jaffy

    Very pleasing performances leading into the cup. Bangles in those conditions can be very challenging but we've put them to the sword a couple of games in a row.

    I believe that is the first ODI series win in Bangladesh ever.

    That is a bloody good win since both Kane and Mitchell retired after notching up half tons. Pretty much every batsman except Conway made a useful contribution.

    Kane's already ruled out of the opener but should have two warmups under his belt before the tournament gets under way, so feels like he'll be ready for our second game.

    Afghanistan looking quite comfortable against Bangladesh so far. 39-0 after 7 overs

    They are replacing the Windies so they have a bit to live up to.

    Couldn’t keep it going though. All out for 156. Bangles appear to be comfortably chasing it down

    Saffas off to a solid start against SL in the other match

    Not often you get 3 centuries in an ODI innings eh.

    Get the feeling SL might struggle

    I don't think you could get much more bang on than SL are at 30 overs.

    214-5

    During the recent warm up series in Bangladesh , it dawned on me that if they made ODI pitches difficult to bat on then I'd enjoy/watch this format again.

    With modern bats (plus some extra scoring shots invented in the T20 era) teams can 'struggle' to 230 odd on pitches that used to be 170-par in the 90s.

    Thar was fun to watch. Some risk v reward jeopardy keeping the viewing interesting the whole match.

    These 450 v 350 matches bore me senseless for the 50% of the match your team isnt batting.

    Only 'problem ' i see with my proposed spicy ODI pitch hypothesis is - the only way to make a pitch evenly difficult for 100 overs is if it is 'over dry' rather than a bit sticky. So spin and pace-off would be the dominant bowling method.

    South Africa score a massive 428 yesterday against Sri Lanka, NRR putting them second behind us. Although doesn’t matter early on you get the feeling that NRR later will have an impact later. NZ and SA putting pressure on others early with those results

    Back in the day big hitters really earnt their boundaries.

    Guys like Viv Richards, Beefy Botham, Gordon Greenidge etc.

    Nowadays the bats just make it so fucken easy in comparison. I was pissing round with my son’s bat and had a bit of a swing at a full toss he threw me and was shocked at how far it went.
