This is obv gonna put the mockers on him, but good death bowling from Baidwan.

Ha, just the opposite. Gets Mathews with the slower ball.

Put Hansra out of his misery. 1 from 18 balls, and it's been painful.

One of the M&Ms... get a friggin wicket.

I understand they're rushing to get to 20 overs so they get the result, but still.

This is bizarre from the Sri Lankans. It's the 20th over of an innings where they are stomping them, and the part-timers have bowled more than the openers.

Aside from the WC, does Davison still play any cricket?

Anyway, big call to ask a 40 year old off-spinner to score runs
Na mate. Was playing grade with us in Sydney up until he took the job as spin bowling coach at the national academy at the end of 2009/10, don't think he's played a lot of cricket since he took on the full time role up in Brisbane.

Interesting one though isn't it, the Aussie spin bowling coach playing for Canada in the WC.

Probably trying to rush through to the minimum overs required for a result should it rain too hard for a restart.

Anyone know much about Samaraweera bowling? Hadn't bowled for years before today but first rose to prominence as a bowler - has he been injured or did he just pretty much give it away?

Both of today's matches have been ridiculously one-sided. It only vindicates ICC's decision to reduce the number of minnows from 2015.

Two games today are enough proof. Minnows dont belong. Lasith Malinga did not even play the game today.
Yeah I agree. The sad part is, the first "real" match of this World Cup is only on Thursday, between South Africa and West Indies.

I think they should abolish the Champions Trophy and have only the top ten teams playing the World Cup. I understand there is a need for the associate countries to develop, but they could always play bi-lateral ODI series with the other nations.

I don't see the need for all the criticism.. just don't watch the one-sided matches involving minnows if it's that boring. Having a tournament involving them once every four years is hardly overkill. I'm not going to bore people and bring up all the upsets and giant-killing runs from the past WCs because everyone knows about them.
