The 50 over performances have been mostly poor since the 2019 World Cup win

20-3 after 10 overs...England are now 346 off their 50 overs...a great effort after losing those early wickets.

If Buttler scores, and gets any support, we post competitive scores. If Buttler goes cheaply we struggle, I love watching the guy bat but England really need to find a way to reduce their reliance on him in ODIs.

agreed....Bairstow, Root and Stokes could take some of the pressure of Buttler when and if they return.

Great Effort from South Africa but England more than deserved this win. Great Bowling from Joffrey Archer earns him 6 wickets. superb comeback from Butler and Malan set up the victory. well done England.

The Women's T20 World Cup starts today in South Africa with the hosts playing Sri Lanka at 5. England are second favourites, kicking off their tournament tomorrow one o'clock lunchtime against the Windies. I thought I'd mention it as if you've not got Sky Sports there's every chance the whole thing will come and go without you noticing.

Sri Lanka win! Set the saffers 130 after the captain Chamari Athapaththu and 17yo Vishmi Gunaratne put on 84 for the second wicket, and a knack of regular wicket-taking saw them home fairly comfortably, SA making 126/9.

That might not look 'comfortable', but I've a feeling most sides won't have a lot of batting past number 5. Neither of these did.

Good to see the Aussies hammered in India, all out for 91 in the second innings to lose by and innings and 132 runs.

Yeah quite funny although I assume the pitch was a shambles.

India got 400 against a good Aussie attack and having first bowled the opposition out for 170. I say more the Aussies didn’t bat well with some selection issues, Warner Khawaja misfired, no Green or Head.

I don’t think I can recall when a side has declared on day one of a test match. I understand why they have done it and hope it works out!
