Going to be weird. He's just kind of always been there. Fingers crossed he can get past Warne, which would be a remarkable achievement. Reading that article, I don't think it would be long before he's back as a coach, once he's done his badges.

How the hell does Azam Khan get a place in the team? He's not only quite overweight but pretty shit with the gloves anyway.

Managed to stay awake for the Canadian innings but decided to finally get some sleep at that point thinking the Yanks aren't going to top that.
Er, okay, maybe I was a tad wrong...
94 from 40 balls from Aaron Johnson is rather good.

Just caught up with the USA/Canada match. Good chase from the yanks.
Quite an array of countries in this world cup which nice to see. Don’t know too much outside the traditional sides plus Zimbabwe/Ireland/Holland.
Be rooting for Nepal I think. Went i went travelling there I was hoping to catch a game but no much matches on which was a shame.

Windies - PNG could be a close one.
edit: oh well PNG did well but couldn't quite kill them off late in the game, who knows what could have happened if they'd taken a review early on? 8-2 would have been a great start for them.

Imagine spending a load of money to fly to Barbados for the cricket and the weather is worse than back home. Fuck knows how this will end, doesn't look like the rain wants to stop.
edit: and now confirmed match abandoned, Scotland had done well for their 10 overs.

No result not ideal.

Pakistan look like they're going to be very embarrassed unless they pick things up rather a lot.
edit : SUPER OVER TIME!

Watching USA take Pakistan to a superover in a world cup game. In Texas.
I feel like i'm in a strange new parallel timeline

As long as the American bowler doesn't panic like Pakistan's then they should get a result.

Really wish my nephew's birthday wasn't today, this is hilarious just keeping an eye on the BBC Sport app.
Edit: not being able to watch England be awful is an advantage at least

New Zealand has the easiest group and were humiliated by Afghanistan.
We haven't played much cricket but that's no excuse, worst we have played in a long time with bat and ball.

England have got back in the game but those opening 5 overs probably cost us the game. Australia will know how to bowl on this pitch now.
Holland running South Africa close!

Looks awful in Barbados.
All that horrible sun, cocktails and swimming pools.

USA the dark horse.
If they knock over India they'll be a genuine world class team.

Really fine margins, if they didn't drop that catch USA would have probably seen that out, instead momentum swung to India.
I've really enjoyed these low scoring T20 games, a lot more tension than the batters hitting sixes left, right and centre.

Don't want to tempt fate but I think England may have their first win of the tournament tonight with Oman on 36-8.
