A fortnight gone, and aren't we having a lovely old summer? We've now doubled the previous record of abandoned games at a tournament, and there's still a month to go. Nevertheless, as one of the two teams still unbeaten, New Zealand lead the way and look a safe bet for the semis, with Australia, India and England also well-placed at present. South Africa are dead and buried without a win; Pakistan and West Indies remain in contention, as do Bangladesh, while Sri Lanka have benefited from abandonments to rise to the giddy heights of 5th, and Afghanistan are just looking for that elusive scalp to make the trip worthwhile.
