[dadnlad]

[waspish]

A wide ball and they run why?!

 

[domalino]

20 needed off the last over.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Both the Australians in the crowd looking a bit nervous

 

[bigstanhibbert]

Superb shot

 

[Manc Born & Bred]

Could they?

Edit: No

 

[Dr Jacoby]

It would be a travesty if this Australian team reached the semi-finals.

 

[andyhinch]

So any England win and we’re through ?

yes I have complete confidence we will win tomorrow

 

[supercity88]

I’m not sure about that.
I thought a win improves NRR whatever but glad to be wrong.
Afghans going ok here :-)

Net run rate is positive with any win but your net run rate is averaged across each game so a small win could reduce it.

All irrelevant now though any win does it for England.

Sri Lanka are out so can play with freedom and they always worry me, but I'm that way inclined! We should be beating Sri Lanka and don't deserve to make the semi's if we lose to them and Ireland in the group!

 

[blue cigar]

A good weather forecast so no excuses, we will beat Sri Lanka

Cheers Got it :-)
Agreed Don’t deserve a SF spot if we don’t beat Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka are out so could be a nothing to lose from them and could beat England ? The toss will be key, as always in 20/20 batting 2nd does give you advantage to know what you need, I will say the pressure does not sit well with the England team, so we need a good bowling attack and bowl them out for cheap runs

Hopefully that ends the conspiracy theory of keeping hosts in that started with Toss and dropped catch.

 

[Big Swifty]

When does proper cricket start?

Yeah, seemed like a stretch but people love a conspiracy theory.

 

[Citizen of Legoland]

For England?
3 tests in Pakistan in December
2 tests in NZ in February
