If England lose to Scotland, they should just come home.

Apparently it is the worst start to an innings in ODI history - the previous worst was 4/4 by Canada v Zimbabwe in 2006.
The test record is India's 0/4 against England in 1952.

Not a bad performance by Afghanistan - if a few more things had gone their way they might have won.

According to Cricinfo, this is actually the highest partnership for any wicket in ODIs (previous best was 331 by Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar against New Zealand in 1999).

Not much cricket played today then. Not even 100 of the maximum 200 overs bowled.

I don't think highlights ever really do cricket justice and most nights I've forgotten they've been on.
The schedule is rather strange. It seems silly that some teams have played four games, while others have only played two.

I wouldn't watch it if there were highlights, but I take your point, although to be fair, I think they've been good and shown the way the game has swung one way and then another.

Bangladesh will qualify for the quarter-finals if they win either of their last two games against England or New Zealand. England must win their last two games against Bangladesh and Afghanistan to stand any chance of progressing, but if they do, they have to hope Bangladesh don't get something against New Zealand. An abandonment in the New Zealand - Bangladesh game could mean it comes down to net run rate between Bangladesh and England (that's if England actually manage to win their last two games).
