England, needing 161 to win against India, are 60-8. Can they beat Afghanistan's score from the other day?

60-9

England 80 all out. Lost by 90 runs.
It was a meaningless match as far as the competition is concerned, but it won't do the confidence much good.

Shame that the format has led to these meaningless games

Meaningful in the sense that England are all set for another humongous embarrassment into the new year and beyond with the Indian tour.

Still, five tests against the Kiwis and the Aussies next summer should be a piece of cake,

I know he is Irish but surely bringing Morgan in at number 5 is just crazy?
