West Indies have made 310/6 in their allotted 50 overs, due in no small part to an astonishing assault by Andre Russell in the last 5 overs. The final five overs yielded 80 runs.

310/6 would have been a formidable total in world cups gone by; however, given the listless bowling performances of late and the rule structure of the modern game, a score of 310 feels like the equivalent of a score of 260 in world cups circa 1992 and beyond.

Pakistan are 105/6 now; Maqsood was a big wicket.

But there is a lot of cricket left to play

Well done to the Windies bowlers for putting in the disciplined bowling performance that was required in the first match.

Wow! In truth. That is why I hold my tongue when coming to this team. Real Jekyll and Hyde team.

Interesting world cup thus far. All matches involving an associate nation vs a full member have been surprisingly competitive...no associate nation has been outplayed/ outclassed. On the other hand, all the matches between the full members have been one-sided  ???

Indeed!  If they got about 20 to 30 more runs they could have beaten Sri Lanka....they were undone by lack of experience at this level, but if they continue to progress they'll be a handful  next time around.
