Sort of. They’re good, but England have been way way below par in all respects.

It's a 120,000 stadium for two "away teams"

Anyway, that's a massive battering

Could be a long winter the way we played spin and then the way we bowled it

Hopefully they’ll turn it round tomorrow. But I’m starting to worry it’s all sounding a bit negative - like Buttler did go on a bit about the pitch. I hope they’re able to channel their energy in a positive way.

Sounds like a ticketing app is a bit part of the problem. Really poor.

Good start need to continue it. I wonder whether dew will be a factor -  not sure whether that happens as much near the Himalayas!

Scratch that, it won’t because it’s a day game.

Brilliant knock for Malan and now he’s on the move.

Being as you quoted it, it's Himalaya and never the Himalayas. :)

Don't discount the overnight collection still being on ground for a relatively early game.

England falling apart in the last 10. Curran caught be an excellent catch by Shanto

Fell away, but looked to me that the pitch was slowing. Should be a good total.

Great start from Topley. Woakes is continuing to struggle a bit.

That was as good as last time out was bad. Hopefully settle them down and can get into the tournament properly now by following up with a similarly strong performance against Afghanistan.
