England have just got to not overthink this. Go hard at the top like they always do rather than get sucked in by the small total
It doesn't matter how good the bowling is if you don't put enough runs on the board, 130 gives them no chance unless England batsmen get really reckless.You don’t. Sri Lanka almost beat England scoring 140, with a worse bowling attack than Pakistan. Of course England will be favourites if it’s below 160 but it’s not over
Rain coming down....
It's raining
Wickets make a big difference.
Englands powerplay batting will be intriguing for sure. Wonder if the low score dictates a change
Top bowling by England.
160 was still on here. They were 119 after 16 overs. 40 is standard in last 4 overs and that gets them to 160 target. Instead they scored just 18 runs in last 4 overs. Now they need England to bottle it. I still believe it can happen since England middler order has not done much this tournament.
Can’t judge a performance fully until both teams bat on it. Pakistan’s bowling is fierce as well
Curran. Wow.
Salt hasn't hit a ball in anger.
Meh, easy win for England this - Pakistan needed 160+
Besides the Ireland shambles, our bowlers have been really good this tournament. Really impressed with how good we've played considering we haven't got our best bowlers on the pitch.
Yeah, obviously my post was a few overs ago
that was a horrible finish but the previous wickets were key to that.There’s really no point in England going for sixes once they’re out of the power play. The pitch is just too big, and the score too low, to risk it.
It's raining
Between today and tomorrow they will somehow get 10 overs in for England
Wasim with the bat is diabolical. Should be coming in at 11.
Yia he always misses the ball. Harris and Naseem are way better than him.
England are the clear premier side in limited overs as it stands. Other nations need to catch up. England also need to make it count and dominate like Aussies did.
Depends, if they get Buttler and Hales early, they could be in the game as nobody else has done much with the bat for us this World Cup
Poor decision to not send Afridi ahead of him given Afridi smacked critical runs against India on same ground.
Wasted so many deliveries at the end. He’s did it vs India as well in the opening game.
170 was doable on this track. Playing 48 dot balls undid us. Imagine taking 35 singles off them instead of swinging the willow wildly and self destructively!
As much as he's improved his bowling his, batting has regressed. Difficult to call him an all rounder now.
Classic Colin bemoaning that it's not snowing during the Christmas periodIt's raining
England should do this comfortably as they bat all the way down to what feels like 25 batsmen.
Butter or Hales to go first over to Afraid.
Important England stay ahead of D/L
Even half of them as singles gives your bowling a better score to defend. Over 5 overs worth of dot balls when you're first and setting a target in T20 is mad.
That's how scary Shaheen is to opening batsman. Anyway if the rain holds could make DLS a factor
A wicket or two defo makes this a very interesting final.
Pakistan need the outfielders in from the boundary to stop the twos
feck me
As I said this isn't over yet.
What a ball
Got a game on here now
Great ball. Send stokes in
Yeah with Shaheen, Naseem and Rauf...that is a bowling attack and a half.
That was a lovely ball
