Because for the last 20 years cricket in Wales has been run under the auspices of The England and Wales Cricket Board, although there was an agreement that the team would still be known as England. This is by no means the first time that England have played in Cardiff.

Yes One time we played we lost to a Wales side

That's true, but only 7 of the Welsh side were actually Welsh. Jacques Kallis was in their side.

England's record in Wales:
Played 20 (including today)
Won 12
Drawn or No Result 4
Lost 3

New Zealand all out for 223 in 44.3 overs.

England win by 87 runs and progress to the semi-final with a game to spare.

A real team performance that from England. Various useful contributions with bat and ball. Nice to go through after 2 matches. Chance to knock the Aussies out potentially

Exactly, most of the team contributed well. Be nice to put the Aussies to the sword Saturday, send them packing!

Today's match is Pakistan vs South Africa from Edgebaston

South Africa surely nailed on favourites for this one

^ You'd think. But South Africa are batting first and are struggling on 121-6 after 30 overs.

Hassan Ali has just got 2 in 2 balls

Did he get his hat trick?

Target of 220 for Pakistan looks reachable, currently 59-2 in 16th over
