That’s it for today’s OBO. Our did-that-really-happen blog will be live on the site shortly (it won’t). Thanks for your company and emails, and please join us on Sunday morning for the big one: England v Pakistan at the MCG. Or is it Pakistan v England? Who cares, they’re playing each other, in a World Cup final. Ta-ra!

Updated

The weather forecast for Sunday is mixed. I say ‘mixed’; it’s rubbish. There’s a reserve day on Monday, but the forecast isn’t great then either.

If the match can’t be completed, the trophy will be shared. As unsatisfying as that sounds, there is a precedent: the winners of the 2002 Champions Trophy were Sri Lanka and India.
