Never seen such luck before in my life, Simmons must've felt like the luckiest man alive during that innings. What a game. West Indies on a flat wicket are probably the hardest team to beat these days, too many big hitters all the way down the batting line up. Always play with a smile on their face, happy for them.

England have plenty of big hitters these days too. Plunkett has been down as coming in at 11 the past few games, Willey who opens in domestic T20 down at 9.
 
Whoever bats second on Sunday will win. Depending on how the pitch plays I reckon 240 would be difficult to defend with these two teams.
 
Went to saw yesterdays match live...had wonderful time ...But disappointed about crowd at stadium tough...The sounds of whistle, sounds of bottles in the rythm and slogans were replaced by DJ songs...People were more concerned about taking selfies than cheering their heart out..People spent more time on smart phones than displaying passion for the team....even the chants of "sachin", "sachin" and friendly slogans for banter went missing.. May be I am of old school, but spirit of old mumbai crowd seemed lacking
 
Darren Sammy offers pretty much nothing during the games, but he's the best tosser out there. 10 in a row, time to hit the casino's surely?
 
No chance. Wicket looks good, Windies too good at chasing. 200 absolute minimum for. Great toss for the Windies to win.

Only one team has got above 160 so far on this ground in the comp, whilst I don't know about the wicket, the 201 for PAk was against Bangladesh and Sri Lanka may have ended up getting 170 if they were chasing a higher total. With he pressure of a final scores are often not that spectacular. To me 9 is fine but we will see (or not if we get a poor score).

We'll probably never find out ;) Unless England can get to 170+ and defend it.
