Should've stayed till the end instead of hitting over the park.

Some very good bowlers, He will bat around 5 or 6 for Yorkshire in ODIs. Unlucky to get out.
Yup, certainly would be. Could still get even more with a bit of brains. These guys want to Banff everything out the ground. Haven't run enough at all.
No choice, have to hit out now for any sort of challenging total.
Brathwaite has gone for less than 6 a over 
West Indies are awful at defending twos and threes. Yet England just want to smack everything out of sight
Sensational catch
England have batted like idiots and they should limp to 150, sums this pitch up IMO.
Now that is a stupid shot.
Have had to repeat that too many times this evening
Windies will cruise this.
And when was that?
His hundred that everyone goes on about included 34 off Michael Yardy who decided to bowl him a diet of balls in his arc and full tosses.
He's a strong man that can muscle the ball a long way if its in his arc. But there's nothing that suggests he's a batsman of any actual class.
Need to get to 160 here.
He's not a good first class batsmen but a useful all rounder. I think he even used to open for Northants.
What the hell is Jordan doing?
Full yorker
Full tosses all round and we can't even put them away.
Second highest score in a T20 final.
Something for the bowlers to work at.
The Windies fielded like a team that wanted to win the WC final. Every difficult chance taken, every stoppable boundary saved...
We still have a chance, but we have to get a few early breakthroughs & field with the same energy as they did.

He is what he is, a bowler that can hit the ball a long way on his day even all-rounder is generous I think. I'm not really sure why he's below Jordan, I think they're basing it on that one time Jordan hit 20 odd in an over but theres no way he should be higher than 8 in international cricket.
First class average of nearly 29 with 2 centuries. Definitely more of a bowler but also handy with the bat. Bit more than just a hitter.
Which, without checking, is the 3rd worst in the team? (ahead of Plunkett 2 centuries ave in the 20s and Jordan.)
For the team yes but definitely better than a standard tailender average.
Root
Not sure if Root or Kohli.
ROOOOOOOOOOOT
Right, but I never said he was a bad batsman. Just that he was a bowler who could give it a whack rather than a genuine all-rounder.
Anyway, good start from him with the ball more importantly.

Not going to be a cruise at all
Think this is going to be a good final
Wow Root opening bowing, come on!
2 for Root
OMG
Wow.
Root gets Gayle. Massive.
Root gets Gayle. Massive.
ROOOOOOOOOT!
Stupid from Gayle. Root the man!
Windies will be under massive pressure now.
Rooooooot
The shot of all the England players running towards Stokes was brilliant.
