If we win this the pressure for them to actually make the semis will almost be unbearable.

India and New Zealand next for England.
Yep and they basically will need to win both to finish top 4.
Ask and you shall be rewarded.

Am I right in saying that England have never beaten Aus, Ind, and NZ at a world cup.
92 was the last time they beat one of those 3

Behrendorf needs to be a touch fuller. Bairstow is relying entirely on eye.
No that’s not correct.
2 wins and 6 losses vs Australia
3 wins, 3 losses and a tie vs India
3 wins and 5 losses vs NZ
So they have a losing record against all 3.
Don’t mind when it’s 4s and 0s. If these two ginger ■■■■■■ start rotating strike better then I’d be worried.
that’s the stat i heard. cheers knackers
9 dot balls in a row for Cummins, …
Edit: Fk, … mozzed 'im!

11 of 12 aint shabby in a ODI though, …
Reckon he’s looking for the Lbw with Bairstow. I’d give him something wider to drive on the up as a changeup.
This variable bounce is a great sign for the Aussies.
Good over. If he wants to keep advancing he’s forgotten how to score properly.
Hurry up and knock a couple more over Lads, … gotta get some kip.

Only 5 runs off the bat not in boundaries in the first 11 overs. Super bowling.
Also horrible batting by the Poms. Showing no intend to turn over the strike.

This is were it gets a bit tougher. Ball not moving, batting a wee bit more circumspect. Still need to find some wickets, reckon they’ll go after Lyon.
Why can’t they just paint those three guard spots?
