    That's right in the slot, fired into length. The England fans are on their feet.

    That lbw decision could end up costing Netherlands around 30 runs here.

    Smashed over long-on for six!

    One last (OK, penultimate maybe) dance from Ben Stokes in ODI cricket, this.

    England take 24 off Aryan Dutt's final over.

    That's the worst ball of the World Cup.

    Salt meet wound.

    A rank full toss, chest high, and Ben Stokes pulls it for six.

    No-ball. A free hit to come.

    He's not out, that's surprising. I'd call that ambient noise. Joe Root will be grumbling after being given out in similar circumstances.

  6. Not outpublished at 11:48 Greenwich Mean Time 8 November 2023

    Hmmmm.

    He's decided there's an under-edge and "potentially some glove".

    Not sure about that to be honest.

    There's loads of little murmurs on UltraEdge.

    Grumblings says Marais Erasmus.

    What's he going to decide here?

    He just fell over didn't he?

  9. Netherlands reviewpublished at 44.5 overs

    Ben Stokes tries to reverse sweep, well hoick, but misses.

    He's hit on the pad.

    Rod Tucker says no.

    Scott Edwards sends it upstairs pretty quickly.

    Ben Stokes is accelerating.

    He crunches a cut through the covers, before pulling a shorter ball from Aryan Dutt just over deep square leg for six.

    Stokes throws his head back. He thinks he's got away with one there.

    It hasn't been a completely chanceless innings from Ben Stokes though.

    Here's how Ben Stokes brought up his half-century with a six.

  13. Eng 245-6published at 44 overs

    Really sloppy from the Netherlands.

    Scott Edwards gathers behind the stumps, aimlessly throws at them but then Paul van Meekeren misses attempting to back up.

    England pinch a single.

    This has been an important partnership. England need to win this to help them qualify for the 2025 Champions Trophy.

  15. Eng 242-6published at 43.2 overs

    Ben Stokes and Chris Woakes bring up the 50 partnership off 48 balls.

    A crucial partnership this.

    Morgan: Think the only player than can say they gave it everything and performed to their usual level is Malan at this World Cup. Butler isn't captain material for me, massive overhaul required of the age of the squad. Give it to Crawley and let him build for the next 5 years.

  17. Eng 239-6published at 43 overs

    Stokes 54, Woakes 29

    Three singles follow the six. A good over for England with 10 off it.

    They could still get 300 from here.

    He can explode into life, you would think Stokes could double it from here.

    That looks good, Stokes opens his shoulder hoists De Leede and he goes to 52. Stokes hasn't had much to wave his bat about, he's not really doing it celebratory.

    Eng 236-6

    Shot! Is this Ben Stokes opening up?

    He clears his front leg out of the way and whips Bas de Leede over mid-wicket for six.

    It brings up his half-century off 58 balls too.
