I've been looking forward to this and think England stand a good chance of winning. A bad start for Scotland with some poor fielding letting them down in a game they should have won.

Sharjah has never been a really big scoring ground, Dubai should see some decent knocks.

I agree although some of the low scoring games are just as entertaining

Australia and today India showed the only way to get a big score is to go high and long. The outfield at both grounds can get like treacle when it gets damp. A nurdle round the corner for four on those pitches becomes nurdle round the corner for one if you are lucky enough for it to clear the inner circle.

Cracking performance from England today. Hopefully coming good for the last three games of the competition.

We can afford to lose, but not by a big margin and still qualify.

Comfortably beaten by West Indies who raced to 66-0 in their 6 over power play ( highest in tournament). England bowled and fielded poorly putting down several catches whereas W.I. caught most of theirs.

Appalling fielding display, dubious captaincy from Sciver-Brunt.

I wonder how different it might have been in the field had a Knight not got injured

I don’t think it would have made any difference at all, they were second best in all three departments and were comprehensively beaten.

Before the start I thought the competition was a forgone conclusion, with Australia beating England in the final. Pleasantly surprised though how competitive it has been with the two big teams both out.

I agree I had the Aussies down to win against us. My money would be on the west indies now but I wouldn't put much on it

West Indies are too inconsistent for me, if they fire they are almost unplayable but I struggle to see them hitting the heights on 3 games in a row. South Africa for me but like you say ii wouldn’t put much on it.
