I woke up this morning to the news Afghanistan beat England in the cricket. It's their second win ever in a World Cup the first being in 2015.

Big scalp too given England having won the last WC, right? Good on them!

England did win the last one against NZ. Afghanistan's win is HUGE for them.

That also officially makes the Aussies the bottom of the ladder team at the moment.

Ah ha. Hopefully we can do something tonight against SL.

I'll probably only be able to stay up for one innings max unless a side gets bowled out early tonight.

If we lose tonight I think it's game over.
