[Annihilate Now!]

Cracking Aussie collapse, cracking entertainment.

That sky ball in the last over was bizarre... In the air for about an hour and zero fecker under it

 

[Utdstar01]

Pietersen is really good in the commentary box, has to be said.

Sky’s cricket is always quality.
What a win!! Beating the Aussies like that, doesn’t get much better than that

Only just properly realising it since we bought into Sky last year. Always been on TMS / BBC but the Sky coverage is just another level.

And some on here want to drop Malan for Root

forget being left out, Malan is one of the first names in the team right now

Don’t think I would swap Malan for anyone right now

 

[JohnnyKills]

Great win that.

Still feel we should be using Buttler in the middle order. Give him a floating role and let Roy, Bairstow and Banton bash it in the first six overs.

Bairstow needs dropped for roy.

 

[MUM]

We go again, enjoy.

 

[sammsky1]

Quick bouncy track!!

 

[ha_rooney]

Warner gone! 3 superb deliveries to start from Archer.

 

[MUM]

Hahahaha, Warner gone for duck.

 

[paulscholes18]

Cracking start from Archer deserved that wicket

 

[ha_rooney]

Should’ve been a run out. Aussies all over the place

 

[sammsky1]

While it’s exciting to think what Archer and Wood will do on this pitch, remember Cummings and Starc also there on the other side!

 

[ha_rooney]

Great start for England

 

[12OunceEpilogue]

Christ, Aussies under the pump!

 

[MUM]

Get in.

 

[paulscholes18]

Great start from England

 

[sammsky1]

Aussies are in disarray!!!

 

[The Cat]

Someone's got to say it so I will - anyone else dislike all the bling around Archer's neck?

I realise it has nothing to do with the game it just looks very strange to me.

I am old mind.

 

[ha_rooney]

Warne actually has a decent idea for once

I’d give Archer another over now & keep 1 back for later.

 

[ha_rooney]

Excellent fielding. Stupid run.

 

[Chief123]

There wasn’t even half a run there!

 

[paulscholes18]

Do well to get to 140 from here

 

[MUM]

Chaos. Never a run there.

 

[sammsky1]

England have issue of taking wickets in the power play. Team meeting on day off to make plans.

3 wickets in next game powerplay incl Warner and Smith!

Morgan is such a boss caption!!!

 

[ha_rooney]

I’ve seen some stupid reviews over the last few weeks, that might be the worst

 

[paulscholes18]

Worst review ever?

 

[prateik]

That review

 

[Samid]

"I couldn't see the bat clearly hitting the middle of the bat, could you go to ultra edge please"

 

[sammsky1]

Stoinis will have to deliver a career best if he's gonna help Australia to anything meaningful.

Top score of 33 and most balls faced is only 19.

 

[paulscholes18]

Ouch

 

[MUM]

At least they ignored that one from Rashid!

 

[MUM]

Finch gone, it's on.

 

[paulscholes18]

That’s the big wicket, now get Maxwell and You’re into the tail

 

[paulscholes18]

Again a wicket for Rashid off his last ball

 

[sammsky1]

Again a wicket for Rashid off his last ball

Felt almost inevitable

 

[sammsky1]

Stoinis will have to deliver a career best if he's gonna help Australia to anything meaningful.
Top score of 33 and most balls faced is only 19.

Just as I thought would happen. He got dizzy as soon as he reached his career best.

 

[paulscholes18]

Don’t understand bowling Ali, when Archer, Jordan & Curran have 6 overs left

 

[paulscholes18]

What a stinker of a last over

 

[FlawlessThaw]

Archer has gifted Australia a competitive total there
