'Struggles' is being generous, 'completely alien to the concept of' would be more appropriate.

[PaulWinch again]

Very good from Banton and Curran.

Brook continues to struggle with game context and awareness.

As if that matters, he's only the Captain :'(

[Villan For Life]

I’d take the captaincy off him and make Curran captain of both white ball sides. Playing all three formats isn’t helping his game and he seems to struggle to adapt to the three formats. Add in the additional burden of the captaincy and the net result seems to be jumbled up thinking across all areas of his game.

[PaulWinch again]

Going well again…

[Baldy]

114-5 after 14 overs vs Italy.

Struggling at moment. Look nervous!!

[aj2k77]

Brook is not a captain.

[Baldy]

Brook is not a captain.

He doesn't know whether to stick or twist. Butler dodgy as well.

[Baldy]

Jacks to the rescue.

[Monty]

Damn good effort from Italy.

[cdbearsfan]

Yeah, fair play to them.

[PaulWinch again]

Very good effort from Italy, but England have been alarmingly slack in this competition.

[Richard]

How good were Sri Lanka, hopefully its bye bye Australia now.

[Villan For Life]

Great win for Sri Lanka against the Aussies, that leaves them needing snookers to qualify for the knockout stages.

They will be knocked out if Zimbabwe beat Ireland tomorrow.

[Somniloquism]

What would be the respective results needed for the Aussies to get through on NRR?

Edit: Just realised from VfL's post that Zimbabwe still have a game in hand. I thought it was just Sri-lanka v Zimbabwe and Aussies v Oman left.
