That’s it from us today, thanks for tuning in and ta to Jonathan for the early knockings. England are in action against Pakistan over in Eden Gardens – follow Rob Smyth on the tools as he takes you through their final acts of the 2023 competition:
I’ll be back for India’s tune up against the Dutch tomorrow but really from now it is all eyes on those semi final matches. It’s been a long old road but we’re getting there and it promises to be a belter of a final week. Right, that’s me away – goodbye!

And here’s a chipper looking Pat Cummins:
It was a great win leading to the semis and good to chase a total like that. We were not at our sharpest in the first innings, It was a really good wicket. We brought it back towards the end to a total that we could chase.
“All 15 players have played this tournament now and I feel we can pick any one of them (For Thursdays semi-final v South Africa)
(The skipper is then asked about Mitchell Marsh’s innings)
Outstanding. I thought it was impressive the way he finished off the innings. The tempo that he played at was sustainable and he is a scary prospect to have for the next week. We’ve won Seven games in a row, even when we were not at our best in some of those games, we came away with a win. Chasing 300-plus was something we did not do earlier so it feels like everything is clicking together.”
