First match today... India v South Africa, in Group B, Thursday 6 June 2013 at Cardiff

... and it's off to a cracking start.

South Africa won the toss and inserted.

India are 249-4 (40 overs)

Shikhar Darwan 114 (94 balls) leading the way, in an opening stand of 127 with Rohit Sharma.

India 331-7 (50 overs)

That is going to be some chase if South Africa make it.

SA making a game of this - openers both out cheaply, but these two have added 100+ now and it's 135/2 after 20 overs

Pakistan have been absolute gash in this one, although the Windies really haven't done much wrong and look like a good dark horse bet.

Going to Eng v Sri Lanka next Thursday, and the first semi (not expecting to see England in that one!).

Shame that Pakistan are now only concerned with batting out their overs. But lovely hit, that, for SIX. Misbah moves to 79...

In fairness to these two, this is a great exhibition of how to make the best of a bad situation.

Something like 190 would at least give them something to bowl at, although they'd need to bowl the Windies out to have a chance of winning.

Pity they didn't make a few more... very odd batting card...

2, Jamshed 50, 4, 0, Misbah-ul-Haq 96*, 0, 2, 6, 2, 0, 2

170 all out (48 overs)
