feck sake

 

[Utd heap]

Good tournament for Brook. Fancy him to score a bucket load in our test summer.

 

[gorky_utd]

Agreed, it certainly wasn't when we were batting. The concern was that it might improve in the second half (it hasn't, not too much). But some of the wickets were definitely reckless, and had to do far more with game sense and responsibility than the pitch or the quality of the bowling or the scoreboard pressure.

I think it is just 20 over match. Unlike 50 overs so wicket I don't think would change too much. But 170 is above par here.

Their only chance was to take the bowling down in first seven eight bowlers. With the ball getting softer it'd have been very tough to score runs later.

I think they'll probably drop Chris Jordan and Sam Curran permanently after this

 

[KM]

Is Will Jacks injured?

 

[Dudu]

Very one sided SFs.

Roll on the final..

Jordan and Barstow probably done.

Curran dropped in the short term but young enough to be back.

 

[Utd heap]

Is Will Jacks injured?

Just dropped I think. Hadn't quite worked.

 

[SmallCaine]

Historical chokers vs New Chokers final, who will outchoke the other.

 

[arnie_ni]

Change of mgt needed I think

 

[Utd heap]

Can we stop Kuldeep not taking 3/4?

No.

 

[Utd heap]

India as favorites ? Our T20 team sucks!

Yeah... no. India are not winning this.

Evening lads.

 

[SmallCaine]

Bowl England out under 100, would be a nice payback for 2022 wt20.

 

[P-Ro]

Archer. What are ye playing at?

 

[Utd heap]

Archer. What are ye playing at?

Always chaos when he bats. Funny guy. Luckily doesn't matter.

 

[KM]

Think this is as comprehensive as that horrendous SF loss two years ago

 

[TheGame]

Absolute hammering.

Good to see you lads have moved on from that.

 

[KM]

Good to see you lads have moved on from that.

Is this some kind of coping mechanism? Being weirdly passive aggressive.

 

[Utd heap]

Bumrah v Topley can we throw a towel in.

[Lay]

England

 

[FlawlessThaw]

Absolute hammering.

Proper, Bumrah and the spinners way too good on this surface for England

 

[Utd heap]

The correct final then. Two unbeaten sides.

 

[Swedish_Plumber]

Will hopefully be a competitive final!

 

[NM]

Evening lads.

Did not believe it would be this spin friendly. Bumrah + Spinners in these conditions have been fantastic. I think we are better than SA, but let's see.

I fully expected us to lose to both Aus and Ind.

Anyway, I hope to not get disappointed on Sunday again

 

[Old Ma Crow]

He seems to look out of place in this whole environment. Weird selection.

I really don’t know why he’s in the team. Let’s see if they drop him for the final.

Well played India, bring on the saffers!

Believe it's Saturday mate. Should be set for a quality final.

 

[Widow]

Come on SA!

 

[Djemba-Djemba]

Best two sides in the final.

Hope South Africa win.

Do we think Mott and Buttler have done enough to stay on as coach and skipper? Making semi finals is a decent effort on the face of it but we only really had one notable win over a decent side.

 

[MDFC Manager]

England's decision to bowl first will go down as one of the worst one in knockouts.

Yup seems like it

Two pretty drab semi finals. Hope the final is on a flat one and we get a slog off.

We're screwed if it's a slog off

I'd be very surprised if Mott stayed on. No issue with Jos but he needs a bigger personality as coach behind him.

 

[Djemba-Djemba]

I'd be very surprised if Mott stayed on. No issue with Jos but he needs a bigger personality as coach behind him.

Yeah I could see this happening.

I don't think Buttler is a particularly good captain but I don't know who else there is. Mott definitely should go, these last two tournaments we've looked pretty shite.

Surely the end of the road for Moeen and Jordan and Bairstow and maybe several more too.

 

[Di Maria's angel]

Evening lads.

Evening Heaps. Hows it going?

 

[massey]

Come on South africa do it for cricket
just kidding good luck both teams

 

[Utd heap]

Evening Heaps. Hows it going?

I was fully expecting someone to quote me back with my prediction that South Africa would be shit so I will raise it myself instead .

I do hope they win it though but no complaints if India do.

 

[the_cliff]

Bumrah is by far Indias best and most important player.

 

[Ronaldo's ego]

Glad we got a full match, India progressing due to a washout would’ve had people seething. One more good performance needed

 

[Utd heap]

Bumrah is by far Indias best and most important player.

He is great but I love watching Kuldeep.

 

[TheGame]

England need a reset in the short form, time to move some players on and bring some players in.
