And root looks like he's trying to save a test match
ICC Champions Trophy 2017

Looks to be in a lot of discomfort. Hopefully nothing too serious.
Glad to see Morgan playing well. He's had a strange England career, started out brilliantly and looked to be at one point our best ODI player along with KP then just really went off the boil.

Joe Root is a class act tbf
Well done to England, no way they can lose this now.
Score update anyone?
Brilliant chase. Comfortable work
Mortaza needs to retire, man can't bat or bowl any more, he's only there cause of leadership and that was in short supply today
Easy peasy for England but tougher tests to come.
Yup, comfortable win.
People were right, Bangladesh messed it up with the bat and fell short a fair bit

Chris Woakes has been ruled out of the rest of the tournament. Blow for England. Depending on the types of pitch we encounter the obvious replacements are David Willey and Adil Rashid. Both can bat as well as bowl so it's not the end of the world but it's still a shame to lose Woakes.
Good fight back from the Aussies. Thought Kiwis would get close to 315 when Williamson was there, good knock from him.
Should be a good chase if the weather stays dry.

Although it's a shortened match which usually favours the side batting second, it's only by 4 overs. 6.3 RRR from the start, as you say should be an interesting second half.
Wonder how long the ran will last
AUS need 235 off 33 overs, fancy NZ to win this
235 in 33 overs. Think NZ will be happier with that..
Lucky AUS 53/3 off 9 then the rain came again, match abandoned
Likely to be a tournament marred by rain
Amla is such a wonderful player in all formats of the game.
That was some appalling batting by SA Middle order
Sri Lanka arent up to much I tink. So that's probably enough
I take that back. They've got off to a great start
Any way to watch this? rivers and all that..
Let's see if they can hold it together. 92/2 off 11.5 overs
SL are throwing this away
Poor batting. No need really.
WOW SL are a different kind of special
Are you in India?
Nope. Hotstar works in india. in the us for now.. dont have espn 3 or willow tv.. was wondering if there is a way to watch India-Pak tomorrow.
SL captain banned for two games for the slow over rate. Bit harsh in the context of an international tournament. That's him missing the rest of the group stage
Hilarious as it barely rained herr in London in May.
Theyre shit and have been for a long time.
He was 50 minutes late. Well deserved.
It was horribly slow I agree, I guess my post is more based around not wanting to ruin the spectacle of the competition. Rules are rules though.
We're likely starting with 4 pacers with Ashwin sitting out.
Likely XI- Rohit, Dhawan, Virat, Yuvi, Dhoni, Kedar, Hardik, Jadeja, Bhuvi, Bumrah and Umesh.

Pakistan are horrible chasers so a bit surprised by that decision. Although batting second nullifies Kohli the chaser so there's that. Fear of some passing showers as well I think.
That was a brilliantly observed silence
Sharma being made to look like a twat
Don't get the decision to start with spinner at all.
