I don't follow one-dayers terribly closely, but we don't look much like favourites to me.

Pakís are schooling us here, we'll scrape 4th place for the semi :wenger:

Short of Buttler going mental, it's over.

Quite why nudging it about was considered a good plan I'm not sure.

So much for the whole "Cricket's Coming Home" vibe.

Last two overs have gone for 23, though. While Buttler's there, there's hope.

:nod: I'm gonna stick with it rather than sulk and watch summit else. Obviously 1 or 2 wickets changes all that.

Same as quite a few IPL games he’s played in...if Buttler is there at the end then England win.

They don’t have do anything big for the next 10-12 overs...just keep it ticking along...odd boundary / six.....then go for it...par kis will start feeling the pressure too.

But then need to stay in...

And...both sides have stupidly wasted their reviews.

Idiots.

Yes. They will need to actually score more than one or two runs an over, though, which they seem to be struggling with at the moment.

If they can score 1 four per over here on out then they just need 50 from 50 balls

Albeit I’m using wonky T20 arithmetic.

Great. The evil partitioning heretics play like shîte in the series and now hammer us when it counts.

And we'll realise that we aren't as good as we thought.

When Roy and Bairstow put on a ton and Morgan and Buttler both fire, then yes, we're great with Root knocking it around in the middle overs. But if not, we're just average.
