Oof umpire got clattered
ICC Cricket World Cup 2019
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Roy comes back from a bad day against Pakistan with a classy 100.
Was expecting him to destroy Bangladesh after his performance against pak.
Destroyed the umpire in the process too.
Hope it's the one who called off the pak still lanka match.
He and Bairstow have set the game up well for a big score.
Good bit of bowling, but not sure if that's a wicket Bangladesh really want.
Buttler in at four, that's what I like to see when a big score is on
I think Roy got fed up there.
I love roy.
200 was there for the taking. England should still get 400
ffs!
He was after the six sixes in a WC match where he could get 200 and take his team to 400 plus.
Tells you how many fecks England give about Bangladesh.

Looks like this is going to be the first 400 run match in the WC
Butter seems to have picked up an injury, hopefully not serious.
I think he did it when he hit the ball into the Taff. He's not been moving freely since. Having to sprint for that run just made it worse.
400 unlikely now
370-380 likely.
If Butler hadn't picked up that injury would have probably been an easy 400.
Buttler's injury isn't the issue for getting to 400; it's Morgan going at less than a run a ball.
Is he?
Was when I posted, then hit a 6.
I know.
First ODI for over 20 years at Taunton
That shot.Buttler should take a few weeks off, no need to risk aggravating the injury before the Ashes.
Yup. And in any case it's already way too many for Bangladesh.
Afghanistan have started well, meanwhile.
Disappointing innings from Morgan there. If you take that long to get set you have to make the most of it.
Might be too many still, but I think England will be disappointed with this given the platform Roy set.
Bit of a shambles at the end here.
Mortaza must have been relieved to hold on to that catch somehow.
True but he's not the only decent batsman in the tournament who would end up in this situation. The ODI game has changed to this extent.
Collapsed here at the death.
Afghanistan enjoying themselves here
Revived!
Must be demoralising as feck when you get Stokes and Morgan cheaply and then the bowlers decide that they'll hit you around at a 200+ SR
Yeah these 2 have brought it back.
That's a score.
