The last one stands out. 21% from a batsman as explosive as Guptill. The others are all bowlers supporting a batsman.

Yeah, it's more that its just interesting that both of the top two are Maxi and Cummins

Pat knows his role. Let the cobblers do the cobbling.

Bazball going as well for Sri Lanka here as it has for England

Actually I take that back, most of them are batting in their usual manner, it's just that Perera has gone all Maxwell

Would anyone be sorry if Pakistan beat England and we lose to Bangladesh so that Bangladesh finish 7th and England miss out on qualifying for the world championship tournament?

We still finish 3rd win or lose. And play the Saffers win or lose, or finish 3rd or 2nd (Saffers lose and we win).

Be magnificent if England were to miss out. Bairstow and Stokes would somehow manufacture it into a moral victory.

I thought it was top 8 that qualified?

Either way with Sri Lanka likely getting easily beaten by NZ and Netherlands playing India it looks likely England will finish top 8.

Wrote off my car today but hey at least it was not as big of a car crash as Sri Lanka’s world cup campaign.

Top 7 excluding Pakistan who are hosting.

But also because Pakistan are hosting, India won't go and the tournament almost certainly won't go ahead.

Slight correction. They are not all bowlers. S. Kirmani was a wicketkeeper batsman who scored two test centuries for India. His test batting average is roughly the same as that of Guptill.

Joel Curtis made a ton opening for the second xi, surely he'd be a better bet than Philippe right now.

Sri Lanka has just been suspended by the ICC due to government interference. They’re genuinely finding new ways to hit lows

I think England can never eat enough humble pie...been revealing to see how their cricket stands up/falls down outside of their home fortress bubble. Will get devoured by their own press no doubt.

You're our resident pest / Sri Lankan expert, what's the score? I saw their board was sacked - why?
