Bairstow scored 31 off 18 at a crucial point of the game, when we'd lost 2 wickets.

But their 29 runs of 10 balls at the end took the game away from them, Bairstow 31 built the platform after a very poor start by the openers

The Aussies nearly did what they said and knocked england out, Scotland was very much in the game, Scotland go home with their heads hailed high, England whimpered through to the super 8s

It got easier to bat on though. The first few overs the ball moved round corners.

it did but the england openers were shocking, No foot movement or coming down the wicket to take the swing out of the game, Them 29 runs of 10 balls at the end won the game for England

Those 29 runs wouldn’t have been possible had Bairstow not got his score.

Had Livingstone come in at 30/5, he wouldn’t have made the same score.

You used to be a really positive poster. What happened? Did Root run over your pet cat?

If my auntie had bollocks and all that

But we had to say prayers to the weather gods to get over the line, Sometimes you need that little bit of luck to wake you up, You never know in the Super 8s and england could come to the table

Arguably, Namibia not batting Wiese from the start could have been the difference too, he looked very good in the short time he was out there.

None of the "if's" matter, England won and are through.
