Slick move by ESPN Africa. Their deal to broadcast Japan Rugby League One is a great opportunity to check out a chunk of RWC heroes, among them Franco Mostert, PSDT, Faf de Klerk, Damien de Allende, Jesse Kriel, Cheslin Kolbe & Kwagga Smith. Two matches per week via DStv 218/219.
Jos Buttler’s 138 runs at 15.33 in this World Cup hasn’t been great.
But it’s not even the worst batting performance by the captain of the defending champion at a men’s Cricket World Cup.
That’d be Allan Border in 1992, who made 60 runs at 8.57.

The scary thing about this game is that 🇮🇳 have been far from their best - especially with their catching and their middle-over bowling - but they’re still going to win it easily.
They’re going to be very, very hard to beat. (If I were to guess, I’d say 🇿🇦 have the best shot.)
