Dicey start there, but I’m pleased to see Buttler up the order. With all that wind about he could be away.
I’ve made a cup of tea and am looking forward to Roy and Buttler.
This could be massive.
Roy 3 consecutive sixes, 150 up, then out, oh well
235-3
Three sixes in a row from Roy and then a miscued hoik gets caught. Still, 153 isn’t bad!
double header today v

KO is 13:30 BST
Buttler teeing off now, and he’s stuck the ball out of the ground and into the river.
This is what we paid* to see.

And another one bites the Taff…
Amazing shots from Butler. That first six went miles, it was still climbing when it went over the commentary box into the Taff, off the back foot!
Butler 51 from 33 balls…
Buttler is carrying an injury of some sort.
Looks like it’s stopping him from properly teeing off.
Yeah, looked like he strained his leg sending that first one into the river.
Wonder if he’ll be good to keep wicket, or if they’ll give Bairstow the gloves?
Buttler gone for 64.
Trying to hit everything because he couldn’t run?
330-4 from 45.2.
Its going to be a high score this one, this is the most open WC I can remember, can’t pick between, WI, Pakistan, Australia, Sri Lanka, NZ, England or India, tremendous!
Tricky catch as well, that close to the rope.
Morgan gone for 35.
Sokes and Woakes in now.
340-5 from 46.5.
Stokes gone for 6.
341-6.
373-6 with one to go.
We bat deep.
61-0 after 10 overs…
386-6 after 50.
