Second highest team score of all time in an ODI , 4 short of SL's 443 vs the Netherlands - therefore it's the highest vs a Test playing team.

Wouldn't mind seeing WI make a decent fist of this, 36/0 after 4.4 so far.

edit: 36/1, Gayle out, that's proper mockers from me. And probably game over.

Bet ab de v is a bit miffed his last shot didnt miss the fielder for a great team record. He seems a bit overlooked as a modern great but he is a game changer in every format. Those early days as a keeper did him no favours.

Stunning display. Certainly helps when you come in at 247-1 though, he just started battering everything right from the off. He averaged almost 3.4 runs per ball. :blink:

Shame for Amla, he was there for the full 50 overs and hit 153, which nobody seems to have noticed! :thumsup2

Great win by England today winning by 9 wickets.

Good to see Anderson back and taking 4 wickets but the main man today was Finn who took 5-33 his best figures in a ODI.

So with England only needing 154 to win and with an early wicket falling of Ali left Bell(88*) & Taylor(56*) to play out the victory and with it a bonus point.

England next play Australia on Friday.

Australia won the toss and put England into bat, probably wishing they hadn't as Bell and Ali put on a fairly rapid 113 for the first wicket. Ali went for 46 with a poor shot, Taylor followed soon after with a timid looking 5. England 131/2 after 22 overs.

Luke Ronchi & Grant Elliott set a new ODI world record sixth wicket partnership of 267 to help New Zealand beat Sri Lanka.

The pair came together at 93-5 but took the total to 360-5 with Ronchi scoring 170 not out off 99 balls, his first ODI century while Elliott finished on 104 not out off 96 balls.
