Rain is Back ....cut off time is  3:18

Looks like a D/L  result .

The World Drivers' Champion was questioned on his knowledge of cricket :

"How much is a duck worth, Lewis?"

He went mad calculating it.

England win by 39 runs via D/L !

It's so frustrating when Duckworth Lewis has the final say. England would probably have won anyway, but Quinton de Kock was batting really well and it would have been great to see whether he could pull off the win.

Agreed Gina, you hate to see any match fizzle out due to the rain, and while England held the edge, it was a fantastic pitch to bat on with very short boundaries. Anything could happen. It really was an enthralling match up till that point.

Buttler again showed that his name is deserving to be included among the current ODI greats, while Ben Stokes continues to impress. His catch to dismiss ABdV was a corker. Top drawer. I don't think Mike Haysman could believe his eyes and the reactions in the crowd were priceless. His talent levels are finally catching up to his true potential.

No cricket fan likes to see a result by D/L but sometimes that's the only way to do it unfortunately. In my opinion England would have won anyway and deservedly so, but that still doesn't make it any better.

Unless your an England fan of course...
