England look like they are in strife at 3/25. I don't think they respect lower ranked nations at all, I wouldn't mind seeing them get thumped by Ireland.

You certainly get the feeling the ECB would prefer to play only Aus, SA, and India for ever.

It did not take so long for Ed Joyce.

We can do well without ballance as long as we keep our williams and taylors

Surely Panyangara from the other end? Only the 15 overs today.

Williams will go, lets face it.

Oh! this is getting annoying now...

Bloody Ajmal, he always seems to score freely against Zimbabwe. Like Razzak from Bangladesh - he plays without fear.

Hear a lot of noise out there, encouragement from people behind the stumps. Probably a lot of chat from Hamilton there, if I recognize the voice correctly...

Would be good to clean up the tail in the next 5 overs before stumps.
