ICC Cricket World Cup 2019

West Indies failed to reach the Australian total

Chris Gayle was given out 3 times in a couple of overs. All reviewed
1. He was given out caught behind, mostly because of a sound. And it tearned out that he had missed the ball, but the ball had cliped the stump and it wasn't dislodged.
2. He was then given out LBW and that proved to be going down legside.
3. Again given out LBW and this time it showed that it was just clipping the leg stump.
The ball before was a no ball but the umpire hadn't spotted it. So the ball that he was out with should have been a free hit.

Gayle's not impressed with that umpire.

Well India (the BCCI) said they would make sure that the 2007 format was never used again.

Pakistan take on Sri Lanka from Bristol this morning

Australia looked to be in a losing position several times yesterday, but still managed to beat West Indies by 15 runs. Quite a thriller, surely the best match of the tournament so far.

The Pakistan v Sri Lanka match was a washout

2 match today. England v Bangladesh from Cardiff , and Afghanistan take on New Zealand at Taunton.

Rashid may miss the England match as he's not fully fit. England may add Plunkett on seamers wicket.

Plunkett is in the England team, but he's replacing Moeen Ali.
England have been asked to bat first.

England made 386/6 from their 50 overs. Jason Roy with 153.

Roy decided it was time to start hitting. 6,6,6 out

England beat Bangladesh by 106 runs

India v Australia later on today.
Winners of the last two World Cups facing off.
