Can only see the Jack Leach 'non-story' in the Mail and appears it's nothing at all with England fully confident he'll be on the plane on Monday - just refers to injury he suffered in South Africa and steps taken to get him right for this tour.

Morale boosting win for South Africa in the first ODI against Australia - won by 74 runs.

The worlds number one ranked test side India getting hammered yet again.

Same old story away from the subcontinent against the moving ball they're hopeless.

South Africa beat them 2-1

England beat them 4-1

They took advantage of sandpapergate and beat an Australian side minus all their batting strength 2-1 (that's pretty much Steve Smith (on his own) with Labuschagne - plus Warner at times - are the only batting worth the description)

And now look well on the way to a 2-0 loss to NZ (only a couple of tests not a series) so no further games

Janneman Malan been waiting for his chance for some time.. talented lad who could cement his place..about time one of the younger batters stuck their hand up.. team still doesn’t have enough quality for me though but they handled the Aussie team pretty well to be fair

Ladies 20/20 semi played in atrocious conditions Aus v RSA. If not played Oz would have been knocked out. Obviously an India v RSA final didn't meet the agenda of the organisers.

Absolutely nonsense that there were no reserve days built in to a World Cup.
Stupid as stupid thing

England playing their first tour match today against a Sri Lanka 11. England won the toss and are batting, currently 213-6, Root 78. Looks like one of those matches when more than 11 players will bat. Jennings batting at 8, 2 n.o, Buttler 26 n.o.

Third ODI, Australia 247-6, 49 overs against South Africa.

 

[summerisle]

England 316 all out, a good start for Buttler, top scoring with 79.

South Africa win the series against Australia 3-0, with 4.3 overs to spare.
