Oh fuck off, rain.

Superb USA….not sure either team will make a coaching video of how to bowl a super over :-) Amir was hopelessly wide…probably good that he didn’t bowl any no balls

I enjoyed that and I wouldn't be surprised if the illegal bookies on the sub-continent had a say in this as it was a classic "we have come to lose this match" performance from Pakistan.

YAAAASSS.

Frankie Fredericks, Gazza, Robbie Savage, Anton Lubowski, your boys......

That’s an incredible result for the USA, well done to them.

Brilliant stuff, U-S-A, U-S-A!

A couple of more strange results overnight.

That NZ one was a real surprise. I was doing a night feed for my 5 month old and I had to double take as I thought the result was some kind of fever dream!

Cricket is a rubbish sport anyway, mixed relays is where it's at these days.

Doesn't seem like the windmill clog dancers will be adding to the list of shocks.

It's a shame really, I'm torn between being pleased for Afghanistan as the underdogs, then remembering that they're run by probably the worst people in the world. See also: Uganda.

South Africa trying to make.a game of it, fair play.

Yep I had the exact same thought.

Very weird that we haven’t picked Topley.

Forcing cricket onto New York seems to be going well. Imagine Ind v Pak tomorrow all over on 25 overs and 80 plays 81-6. Sponsors won't be happy. Especially if it goes in favour of Pakistan.
