Davies coming out: Anyone else think this was the snooker player Steve Davies? No, because that would be Steve Davis. So it would

Ireland certainly looked pleased to win by 3 wickets. Congratulations to them, well deserved. A thoroughly woeful performance from England yet again!

A shame for Canada. I noticed they didn't have John Davison playing today. He held the record for the fastest World Cup century before the 2007 tournament. I don't know if he was injured or not but he could've made the difference today.

Group A: Sri Lanka (327/6) beat Zimbabwe (188) by 139 runs.
Both sides endured 'collapses' - Sri Lanka collapsed from 282/0 (only 4 runs shy of the highest 1st-wicket partnership in ODIs) to 308/6, whilst Zimbabwe were 116/0 at one point.
Tillakaratne Dilshan managed an incredible all-round performance - 144 with the bat, and 3-1-4-4 with the ball (and was denied a hat-trick by a dropped catch).

Decent efforts from Canada and Kenya to see out their 50 overs and score over 260.
India should be worried about another batting collapse costing them victory.
England as unpredictable as ever. They could've won all 5 games so far but could just as easily have lost all 5 as well...

Current situation in Group A: NZ, Sri Lanka, Australia definitely through, Canada and Kenya definitely out. Pakistan almost certain to go through unless they lose to both Zimbabwe and Australia and Zimbabwe beat Kenya (and even then it will be down to net run rate).
Group B: Only certainty is that Netherlands are out.
