Shrugged his shoulders in the hope DRS might not be clear presumably. They did mention the bat hitting the ground too which might have made him slightly less certain. | |

Hopefully we can make use of this good start. | | | |

Stokes in for Livingstone is an issue now if he can’t bowl. Got to make up Topley’s overs. Root doing ok though. South Africa could knock us out of two world cups today, must win game. | |

Appreciate the conditions are completely different to 2019, but we just don’t look a very good one day side. We look well short of being one of the better sides in this competition. Just don’t believe we’ll finish top 4. 5th or 6th will be about right. | |

The loss of Morgan has hurt us I think. He was the brains and heartbeat of the ODI side. | |

Under him you knew how we’d play and have confidence in the team to deliver. I don’t get that with this England side, very unpredictable and we look a little toothless. | |

Buttler doesn't seem confident to back his batting line up. The toss seems pointless winning if you're just going to insert in blazing hot conditions. In saying that, SA 5 down. | |

Putting them in is looking a bad idea. We have exhausted players who are now going to have to bat. They have exhausted batsmen but fresh fielders and bowlers. The batsmen will just stay off the field and be covered by subs. | | | |

I know the batsman is knackered and sore, but he goes down every other ball. He's leaving us out there longer, slowing things down. Umppires need to tell him to get on with it or retire. | | | |

That is an incredible innings from Klaasen. Abject from England and we are dead on our feet but credit to him. | |

The end there has killed us I think Buttler has got the toss wrong, not for the first time. I don't understand why you would prefer to have your bowlers, bowling in hotter conditions when the balls seem to have been doing more under lights and will be cooler. [Post edited 21 Oct 2023 14:06]

Yep. I really do not rate Buttler as a captain. Has made some baffling calls. | |

Realistically it will take big fast innings from either Malan or Stokes. Not sure anyone else in there has it in their locker. | | | |

I decided to make a day of watching this game. Actually quite angry at the abject performance now. All stemming from the bizarre decision to follow this "we like to chase" dogma and put a side in, in oppressive conditions. | | | |
