An excellent result by England who managed to turn around a terrible slump of form - the Ashes followed by losing the first three matches of this World Cup - just in time to scratch a way to the semi-final. Heather Knight remains an unappreciated inspirational captain, Dunkley a brilliant young cricketer and Ecclestone a superstar. I’m going to bed before I get sucked into South Africa v India - Deepti has just bowled a beauty and South Africa are 2-0 after two overs. Thanks for all the emails, see you on Wednesday at an ungodly hour!
