    Rashid working his magic .

    They need someone to stick around with Smith ..

    Stoinis gone for a blob! 5 down. Not sure we will ever get a better chance of making the final than this

    Maxwell is the real real dangerman who can score at 10 an over. Get him cheaply and we are really in business. He stays for 15 overs and they will still get a big score.

    Smith is key. Maxwell has the ability though....just not the confidence at present. Hope today isn't when he rediscovers it.

    Archer back.

    Important passage of play.

    4 and a 6 in last few balls....need to get him out quickly.

    I don’t see Roy fielding.

    Any intel from TMS/Cric?

    Gottim !
    Archer has been excellent...

    Not seen any comment. He's definitely in the 11 (ie no injury in warm up).

    250/260 looking on again if Smith and A N Other (currently Starc) hang around.

    Smith and Starc gone in consecutive balls....217/9

    Good last few overs pegging them back .

    Hopefully our openers can get runs unlike the others have !

    Yes I jinxed them again. That makes a hell of a difference.

    We know we will be 15 for 2 after 6 overs (Roy 0, Bairstow 3) but we should now be able to overcome that.
    223 all out just now.
    Seems to be a bit of pace in the wicket for their quickies but can't ask for much more (or less ?) than to chase 224 for the win.

    Very much a reachable target, but it won't be easy. Yesterday India probably thought it was in the bag before they started their innings

    He grabbed his hamstring after a tumbling stop.

    Certainly was on the field at the end.

    Certainly won't have many better chances. As good as the Australian bowlers can be, if we lose from here with the batsmen we have, it will be very poor IMO.
     
  23. Knight GT

    Ours to lose. Important we get a good start and if we can see off Starc without losing a wicket then we will have a heck of a chance but I bet we don't make it easy for ourselves

    Australia could have been all out for 10 runs and it would still be a nerve wracking chase.

    A very gettable total and in theory we should be able to get it, however we are talking about England, therefore I am very nervous :eek:

    Jason Roy looks in the mood which is always good...

    So far, so good.....
    50/0 after 10. Perfect start.

    This simply could not be going any better

    Agreed - nice sensible positive cricket taking minimal risks.

    104/0. 100 up with a 6 off the bowling of Smith.
    great stuff.
    3 sixes in a row now.

    I'm loving this. I'm not sure I'm even that bothered about winning the final, it's just lovely to smash the Aussies

    Poor review by YJB although maybe good to get him & his groin off for a rest.

    Oz certainly don’t seem as aggressive in the field since their awkward episode in SA.

    Bodes well for the Ashes.

    10 more balls until we have a match which finishes today.

    We’re over 60 ahead on DLS.
