This should be a pretty interesting tournament with plenty of games televised this time too. Lots of up and coming players to watch out for. The England side in particular has the likes of Sam Curran, Dan Lawrence and Mason Crane. Here's the full England squad: Brad Taylor, George Bartlett, Jack Burnham, Mason Crane, Sam Curran, Ryan Davies, Aneurin Donald, George Garton, Ben Green, Max Holden, Dan Lawrence, Saqib Mahmood, Tom Moores, Callum Taylor, Jared Warner.

Nonetheless, should be an exciting tournament.

Looking forward to seeing how Lawrence and Crane go. Taylor too, as he is a Hampshire lad. Sam Curron and Aneurin Donald also have first class experience of course.
I'm quite looking forward to it.

Good win for Bangladesh over South Africa and an extremely easy win for England.

I tell you what, NZ vs. Nepal looks like it might be heading for an upset.

Hurray! Much though I like NZ, it's great to see new nations climbing up the hierarchy. Nepal looking like it might be the next Afghanistan, which might be the next Bangladesh, which might be the next etc. etc.

England v WI is televised tonight, shame it starts at 3am. Should be able to catch some of it in the morning though.

The gracious people at Sky. Anyway a solid win, Lawrence doing well with the bat and the ball again. Holden got out cheaply again but the middle order all did a good job with the bat. Mahmood ended up with 4 wickets too and Curran struck twice in the first over. Good performances all round. Oh and poor Fiji again, they got thrashed by Zimbabwe.

Namibia has defeated the defending champs South Africa, knocking them out of the tournament. Wow.
Meanwhile, England achieves a very comfortable win over Zimbabwe to go into the quarters.

More worries for SA in their reserves. England have had a very easy group to get out of.
