Live updates: T20 Cricket World Cup, Australia vs England at Kensington Oval in Bridgetown

Occasional Digest - a story for you

England just got a warning for not starting the over inside 60 seconds.

This is an issue with England having their skipper as wicketkeeper – he’s a long way away from the bowler if they want a chat.

Indeed, every time the field needs changing there is a delay and I think England’s over rate might be starting to become a problem.

Marsh gets a single.

IN THE AIR! Bairstow just can’t get there at cover! I don’t know how you’d describe that shot, Maxwell reached for a wide ball outside off, tried to scoop it to the leg side and just air-balled it.

SIX! Good shot from Maxwell, a flat-batted, bottom-handed drive over third man. Incredible shot.

Wide! Oh wow that’s a harsh call on Jordan – it was right on the guideline. Umpire Wilson not happy though. Maxwell squeezes the sweat out of his helmet. Yucky.

FOUR! Just a cut to a wide one, nicely timed, past the fielder at backward point. Four runs.

Wide yorker, well executed by Jordan.

Another wide. That one was definitely a wide.

Now Marsh steps back as he has something in his eye – nobody’s fault but that won’t help the over rate either…

FOUR! Marsh hammers that ball to point for another boundary.

Australia 2-131, good over.
