    Kaur Blimey!

    India's captain smashes eight sixes and makes 103...

    ... in a T20I. Incredible.

    So, the Women's World T20, then. Admittedly I'll struggle to keep up given a lack of Sky but hope the quick thinking slip cordon of OTF will be watching where possible?

      You'd think missing Taylor and Brunt would be too big a hurdle for England. Before yesterday I thought NZ might be the biggest challenger to Australia but maybe not.

        Bugger. England v SL washed out.

          Ireland against the favourites. Good first few overs with the bat for them, too.

            Jinxed that. Two gone.

              Australia scoring at a very heavy rate. This won't take them long.

                  So penalising batters for running down the pitch when going for quick singles seems like it might be the theme of this tournament

                    Yes, 10 runs conceded by PK and 5 by Ireland.

                    I think the strictness on it reflects that there will be very heavy use of a small number of grounds in the tournament.

                      GROUP A

                      1 Windies 1 +3.000 2
                      2 England 1 +0.000 1
                      3 Sri Lanka 1 +0.000 1
                      4 South Africa 0 +0.000 0
                      5 Bangladesh 1 -3.000 0
                      GROUP B

                      1 Australia 2 +3.730 4
                      2 India 2 +1.162 4
                      3 Pakistan 2 -1.594 0
                      4 New Zealand 1 -1.700 0
                      5 Ireland 1 -5.605 0
                      Top two in each group will go through. England should be playing Bangladesh at 8pm our time, with SL v SA at midnight for us, but again it might all get rained off.

                      "Should all the remaining matches in St Lucia be washed out, England would still qualify for the knockout stages by virtue of being second seeds in their group behind West Indies."

                        England win the toss and Knight chooses to bowl first, hoping that the pitch will become drier and easier as the match progresses.

                        Match slightly delayed, due to start in just over 10 mins.

                          Boundaries have been brought in to avoid the wettest part of the ground around the perimeter.

                            I'd say the conditions are helping England but this is some well focused bowling. BD are in all sorts of trouble.

                              Rahman going for broke now. She's still the only run scorer for Bangladesh so far. Plus one extra.

                                Edit - wrong way around, a calamitous run-out but Rahman continues.

                                  She's caught, 39 off 52.

                                    Smart fielding there for England. Bangladesh eight down with a couple of overs remaining.

                                      76/9 in the end, 39 of those from Ayasha Rahman.

                                        Not wholly undefendable, as they showed against Windies the Bangladesh bowlers are decent. But with the short boundaries they'll need to start brilliantly.

                                          Brilliantly, like taking a wicket with the first ball brilliantly?

                                            It's a start.

                                              Both openers gone. Need 2 more wickets before England reach 30.

                                                And that's two gone. The economy isn't going to see Bangladesh through, but wicket-taking deliveries just might...
