Well only sent 4 people down to india, and not covered every game live.
Talksport done a better job by getting the ICC Radio feed rights.

That's ample for me. Why send more for a digital only station ? They'd only get criticised for wasting funds. BBC can't win

Spreads calling England runs at 167 - 173 and now make the West Indies favourites

Think we may get 180....

Well in this tournament 19 teams have won the game after winning the toss.
that is so high for something that should be close to 50-50.

Wow spreads are low.
the market making 174 Even money chase then.
Market giving WI about 5 runs advantage.

I think the markets are going on the bigger boundaries that may turn 6's into 4's and 4's into 3's

I'm still going high though

Come on England

****ing lucky Sammy winning the toss yet again. Gonna need a huge score now and that probably means we'll go out too hard and end up like we did against Afghanistan.

Yep they think because of the low scores in the IPL and in this tournament they think the game will be low scoring as well.

Batsman like Root, Kohli etc will score loads on here, good pitch, big boundaries loads of 2 and 3 plus they have the skill to pierce the gaps.
England should be able to get 180+ if they bat well.

Wonder what Craig Kieswetter is thinking

Without the injury, he may well have been walking out to bat

Well done Rob Key you've played Roy out of nick

03-04-2016

Oh dear

He looked very nervous

Still, it gives Joe Root more time at the crease...

Callum Collum

Roy bowled second ball!

Perhaps not! 8-2.

Need to steady the ship now. Root has to stay in for the long run.
