Good start for England, Morgan wins toss, vital in these early start games.

Talk about putting the mockers on it, India bowled this lot out for peanuts a couple of days ago. Mind you it is a classic Oval 'shirt front'.

Come on Jim the tournament has only just started and your pessimism is starting to pervade.;)

Well apart from the injury scares and Roy's continued failures a decent start, the bowling will need to up its game though.

We still won though and as Brian Clough once said there is room for improvement.:)

What on earth is that weird Perspex doofer the umpire has strapped to his wrist?

Re: Cricket
 

That's more like it, great all round performance apart from Roy. 😎

Not miserable tonight then.;):D

Re: Cricket
 

I'm never miserable, it's only a game after all. Just pleased to see a solid display.😊

Semi finals now.:)

Hope we don't take it easy on the Aussies on Saturday. Putting them on the plane home would 'set the tone' for the Ashes this winter :)

Stunning result on the cards at The Oval, looks like India or South Africa will be on their way home.:)
