England v Ireland One Day Cricket

[Centurion]

Anyone else watching this & loving the Ireland shirts? Dark green with gold trim...

 

[Quinny]

England 60 runs off the first 4 overs.

 

[Centurion]

England 60 runs off the first 4 overs.

And 84 off 6. Mental.

 

[Quinny]

100 up after 8 overs. Salt only wicket down after scoring 61 off 28 balls (got his 50 off 22 deliveries).

 

[Quinny]

England bimbling along at very nearly - but not quite - nine runs an over: currently 199-2 off 22 overs.

You'd have thought they'd be looking at a score around 460-470 from here, assuming they don't suffer a batting collapse, off their 50 overs.

 

[Quinny]

Crawley out for 51.

 

[Quinny]

BTW - having a look, England own the top 3 highest 50-over innings totals, with Sri Lanka owning the 4th best score, so it's looking good (at the moment for England to slot in here somewhere, if they continue to score at roughly the rate they're currently going at.

498/4 (2022 vs Netherlands)
481/6 (2018 vs Australia)
444/3 (2016 vs Pakistan)

Sri Lanka
443/9 (2006 vs Netherlands)

 

[Quinny]

Century up for Duckett. England 272/3 off 30 overs.

[Quinny]

Bah!

 

[Quinny]

Game abandoned.

 

[Joe Totale]

A shame as we could have been looking at a record score.

5 of the last 6 ODI's played in Bristol have been rained off, maybe Bristol is the issue......

 

[Fergy]

A bit weird that Gloucestershire CC play in Bristol.

A bit weird that Gloucestershire CC play in Bristol.

Bristol used to be in Gloucestershire
