[rich1uk]

50 for taylor

hasn't been pretty but been extremely valuable

[Arthur Crabtree]

Seems to have been a game of collapses. Maybe there's another coming.

Another valuable contribution from Taylor.

buttler showing he is a proper batsmen as well

buttler showing he is a proper batsmen as well

haven't wanted to jinx him but showing today why he is wasted down at #7

really good 50 from buttler

On the flip side, it's very nice to have a player like Buttler in at seven, for circumstances like this.

if he was at #5 we might have fewer situations like this

we need to get rid of ravi tbh, he isnt bowling enough for him to warrant a place in the side

if he doesnt shine at the world cup then get rid of him and give jason roy or somone else who can score very quickly the 6/7 role

personally i would bat woakes 7 and play rashid as the main spinner

of course ben stokes is the solution to all our problems but he has shown no form as a lower order batsmen or a bowler recently tbh

[Aidan11]

We've won this now.

Ha, yes.

I was though quietly confident (ish) of a win, with Buttler, and Woakes at 7 & 8.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Rashid's having a bad time in SA. He's not being picked for the A side's limited overs games.

[rich1uk]

thought that was one tight single too many , he has been very lucky there

[Gingerfinch]

Ballance for Bops, if My man isn't going to bowl.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Not bad for India though. They've been close to winning in a pitch where they were supposed to have no chance. Taylor and Buttler have been chipping plenty of mishits into the gaps.

[rich1uk]

Ballance for Bops, if My man isn't going to bowl.

thing is if ballance plays where do we bat him ?

do we end up with another stokes situation with everyone saying he has to bat in the top 4 and that meaning we have to shuffle every one around to fit him in ?

[Aidan11]

Does this win put us in the final?
