Only the best for Mo. I wonder how much he got paid for being the spokesperson for Ieat? Maybe a lifetime supply of free shepherd's pie.

Afg played brilliant cricket but yesterday's match they couldn't capitalize their momentum. The match was theirs to lose. Eng should have been restricted to 120s. Their batting was horrible. They couldn't win a single match. All remain is the last one against the WI, I think? That is going to be good

Social media was a fun read in the aftermath of this match. Some fantastic zingers.

A few gems:

"Am worried that a performance like this by AFG will be the last nail in the coffin for Associates being invited to future tournaments!"

"I, for one, am proud to see the stand England are taking to promote associate cricket."

"This is great for Afghanistan. But sadly making England look silly in international tournaments hasn't done other associate teams any good."

"I think being an England supporter is a bit like being in an abusive relationship. They promise they've changed and it won't happen again but you know sooner or later you'll be tumbling down the stairs."

England are still alive by the skin of their teeth but will need to beat Sri Lanka and hope West Indies beat South Africa. I am sure Sri Lanka will be licking their chops at the thought of their spinners bowling against this England line up.
