England doing their best to double down against those renowned world beaters - Scotland.
Chasing 153 to win, Buttler, Brook and Salt managed a combined total of 9 runs.

Decent game I thought. Could have been closer but Banton made the difference, along with Watt being stupidly expensive.

England’s batting is letting them down once again.
Buttler has had a terrible tournament.
8 overs left, yet to reach 100 and already it’s Barton and Curran again left to hold things together.

This match is against Italy, ffs.

I thought T20 was supposed to be fun? <OK, and a new money-spinner ... >

Seems a shame that so many fans have just found another source of misery from it! Oh noes, we didn't crush some team ranked way below us .
Maybe it's just ENG fans ...

Sam Curran saves another day.
Italy showed some real fight in the batting department.

Australia will be getting nervous, Sri Lanka going very well at the halfway stage if their chase

More precarious than we were. Sri Lanka have less depth in batting though.

Australia are hanging by a thread….
Sri Lanka must avoid a similar batting collapse and it’s theirs.

Wow.
Zimbabwe win tomorrow and it’s Qantas time.
