    Plunkett has a knack of taking wickets at important times

    Dominant display, rewarded with a semi final at fortress Edgebaston. Can’t wait.

    Great game of cricket that.

    Dhoni was far too conservative in that run chase.

    He’s gods gift to the Indians, I’ve always found him to be a wet wipe. He should watch how a player who was blast better than him conducted himself by the name of Tendulkar, now there was a real Indian role model and a superior player.

    To be fair, there have been some very good decisions. A lot of reviews have ended up being umpires call.

    The one today was a shocker, but the ball did move and in real time I can see why the umpire might have given it.

    Anyway, it shouldn't detract from a terrific performance.

    Can't wait for Sunday.

    I shouldn’t say this but f football at the moment. We won the cricket World Cup. Fair play to Williamson he showed dignity and class in his interview especially about the Stokes incident. Yorkshire must have rubbed off on him

    Stunning catch.

    Great start for England. Our batting line up is phenomenal. Archer looks a great find, he is so quick and dangerous.

    Just hope we dont peak too soon!

    Not subscribed to Sky Sports for a while now. I have BT sport, which has been worth it for the Champions League alone.

    I was thinking of upgrading for the summer for the cricket. However, at work for the vast majority of game time, so its highlights on Sky One and Channel 4 for me. Problem is, trying to avoid scores at work, so can enjoy the highlights better!

    There seems to be still some concern over Wood's injury and maybe they don't want to risk it just yet. It's a long competition and I can imagine the team and the bowlers in particular being rotated and Wood will get his opportunity. Imagine Wood and Archer bowling together on a fast wicket!

    I wasn't thinking that far ahead. But yes, a couple of genuinely quick bowlers bowling against Warner, Smith and co in the test matches will be something to relish!

    It is amazing. We bat from one to eleven. To have Rashid batting at ten is extraordinary.

    I’d expect that record to go several times over this tournament, in modern cricket it’s quite a bog standard run chase to beat the record. Pakistan need a wicket in the next 10 overs or it’ll be a walk in the park.
