England v Scotland at Christchurch

England falling apart. Why are we so useless in the batting power play?

That's a huge collapse after England seemed headed for a massive score. I wonder if they'll get to 300 now.

ENG 229/4 after 42 overs

Great take and stumping by the wicketkeeper. I like Taylor a lot but he should bat 3 not 6. He takes a while to get going and doesn't bludgeon the ball that is needed to bat at the death. England might struggle to even make 300 at this rate. Really going to need a nice cameo from Buttler here.

Yes that was excellent by the Scot gloveman to get rid of Taylor!!!  I agree he should be batting higher up ... he's a busy lil cricketer !!!

England really need someone like Sammy or Russell at the end.

Edit: And right on cue, Buttler is finally able to free his arms.

ENG 303/8 (50 0vers)

England finish with 303, disappointing considering the start they had.

Scots 114/4 from 25.1

150/7 after 33.5
