Have we actually had a proper, old skool English collapse so far this tournament?

The answer, of course, was that he was much, much better than them.

I remember Imran's knock in that game, too. :cloud9: Who would have thought he'd end up being Prime Minister of Pakistan, eh?

He was definitely more interested in blondes back then I seem to recall

Famously so, as I recall. He cut a romantic swathe through the upper echelons of London society by all accounts.

This was where I saw Sobers play, btw. I would have been somewhere behind them in the Members' stand with my dad.

Easy England win...

Regarding the toss I wouldn’t be afraid to bowl first IF Archer and Woakes fancy it.

Kiwis have been going downhill this tournament and they were lucky last time.

Jadeja and Dhoni had them to hang but just lost their cool.

England on the other hand had their noses somewhat bloodied and have responded extremely well.

They remind me of one of those IPL teams that finishes 4th but ends up winning the semi final, final eliminator and the final to land the tournament.

They’ll be too strong for the Kiwis.

And no I haven’t jinxed us...if England lose it’s Channel4’s fault!

Ps....roy century incomingggggggg

Pleasing fightback from England there.

NZ were well on course for 280plus.

242 is light work but they saw what happened to India so sensible play please.

Won’t have a better chance of winning a World Cup imo
