    SL 144/1 got off 25. Well on course for a win!

    236-3 now, 86 needed off 77, could be a cracker with a couple of wickets but Sri Lanka looking good for the win.
  • Need 67 off 54 now

    I bet Kohli's face will be a picture if and when they lose - it won't be his fault even if he didn't get a run and had bowling figures of 3-0-17-0 though.
  • So up and down this. Kusal Perera retires hurt, the new man in looks all over the place and then from nowhere hits a 6. SL need 43 off 36

    He's found his touch though now - 13 off 7 and less than 7 an over needed.

    Really not sure why Dhoni isn't sprinting to the stumps for those dabs to third man - they are taking two each and every time.

    Sri L just keeps producing quality aggressive batsmen .. they have made this big chase look quite comfortable .. so far !
  • So assuming the last games aren't washed out, this result means that either SA or India will not make the semis

    Au contraire Monsieur Canters.

    You said they could do us a favour if they beat India. At no time did you say you thought they would win.

    Proves Surrey supporters can't be trusted !!

    Blimey that's a surprise result. Always enjoy a Kohli team losing.

    Haha close enough! I implied that I thought it was likely! Well at least a possibility!

    Wow, away for a few hours and didn't check as I assumed the result would be a formality!

    The best game of the tournament and first real shock

    I said all along that SL were the real deal.

    Just don't bother checking my posts above, they say exactly that so I'll just save you the time.
  • Cracking game. Really enjoyed it

    really was a good game today. Exciting group aswell now going into final round of fixtures, mainly because they have been luckier with the rain.

    Would be nice to play Pakistan in the semis, surely the easiest one of the 4.

    ha ha just caught up with this - not a lot more satisfying than an India defeat.

    Bangladesh beat New Zealand, another shock result

    Come on England, send the Aussies home tomorrow!

    NZ were poor, tailed off like they did against England, although that 5th wicket partnership for Bangladesh was superb.

    We're looking good, hope they get a day's play tomorrow as would be nice to beat them and send them home, although a wash out will do that also :)
  • Wow only just seen that. Turned off when Bangladesh lost their 4th wicket at 33-4 thinking they had no chance and would struggle to get to 150

    I can't decide what would be funnier... Australia going out without a ball played, or us spanking them

    Def a good spanking - however, weather looks poor for Edg today- shame coz we normally do well at Birmingham v Oz.
  • Latest forecast says rain from 4pm. Possibly enough time to get a reduced overs game in
