  1. Morning all!

    The Cricket World Cup is off to a rollicking start - England's performance aside - and the action continues today.

    While Jos Buttler's side lick their wounds and look at how they can put things right in their next game, the action continues as Pakistan take on Netherlands in Hyderabad.

    Pakistan are big favourites, of course, but Netherlands will be aiming to spring an upset.
