Looks like young Taruvinga kept wicket today (even though Rogan was playing) so maybe they still haven't decided on a keeper?
Welch is a better wk than both of them.

Hopefully thy put the full scorecard and video highlights up again later.

Another good win under pressure. Confidence must be high. Ireland seem awful and the pitch apparently a joke, so hard to judge today.

Bennet has some good form going into the main tournament

Top order needs to sort their S##T out.

Bawa has had starts. Need more from him really.

Don't agree with dropping Saul unless we are looking at all combinations.

These games might be a bit if a red herring going into the Bangladesh game and main tournament. However wins a win and good for our boys

They are playing on a ground that hosts First Class/List A cricket tomorrow so hopefully it gives the top order a better chance at things.

It was probably beneficial for our batsmen and spin bowlers to play the last 3 games on the cabbage patch. If you can put bat to ball and put up good scores in a rice paddy, you can bat anywhere!. The good pitch will be an opportunity for our pace bowlers to show us what they’ve got. If we win the toss, we should field first

School not starting next week!! Closed indefinitely.
It's truly bizarre. We're going into Year 3 of moronic madness. These kids carry on leading normal social lives, no social distancing, no masks no nothing, yet they're not allowed to go to school again. Currently there are curfews which is just a means for cops to take money to turn a blind eye to bars, restaurants and intercity travel after hours. Our variant is obviously more virulent at night.
Political rallies of course are allowed, unless it's the opposition.
And there are people world wide that don't have a problem with this madness.
If you're stupid enough to continue believing in the efficacy of masks, vaccines and boosters why worry what the rest of us do? Let nature take it's course, we can all fall off the perch and the morons can continue to rule the planet.

They have these Chinese thermometers here that permanently register 35 degrees. We're all clearly mildly hypothermic here, or we're a nation of lizard people.
