when we bat 50 overs we try smash it everywhere every ball
when we bowl we try to skittle them every ball
just play conditions
pace off works for most teams bar england

Buttler winning the toss why he wanted to field first was he likes to chase! Agree if you playing a top team a team like Afghanistan you bat first get 320+ put them under pressure and you get a "easier win" unless England camp want to asses the bowlers?!

So seamers getting tonked on this pitch, spinners are needed.
Afghanistan will be packed with slow bowlers, we may well struggle to get whatever target they set.

The way this innings is Turing out we shouldn’t be chasing much more than 230 or so
Looks like it be nearer 300 now after that Curran over

Buttler needs to make his bowlers more confident. Our batting should be fine.Buttler winning the toss why he wanted to field first was he likes to chase!

He does prefer chasing though.

We lose a few early wickets we be under big pressure! You can't afford to lose these games when you got to finish top four! Pitch looks flat as fcuk though

Afghanistan made 272 against India on this ground last week.
We’ve done okay in the end with the ball, overall. Woakes and Curran might be twitching about their places though.
over to our batsmen…

Not sure that’s true. We could win 7, lose 2 and maybe even win the league.Our crunch point has already possibly come. Lose this and we might be good as out.
