England Team Discussion

Don't want to jinx it, but this is looking like a really good win for England.

England's latest strat to win the World Cup. Play two Moeen Ali's

 

[wasteyouryouth]

Stokes has been magnificent today

 

[wasteyouryouth]

Stokes passes Robin Smith's 30 year record for highest score by a non-opener for England.

 

[wasteyouryouth]

Now the overall record and out. Incredible stuff.

 

[Pinch hitter]

England miss the chance to score 400 today... pitch looks good, let's see how New Zealand will bat...

Sweet lord, I’ve got a highlight video to watch it looks like. Hope the ECB do this one justice.

Joe Root batting terribly but managing to injure the opposition.

 

[wasteyouryouth]

Been really impressed with England over the last three matches. Felt like the ruthlessness that defined the 2019 side was back. Contributions from all angles and from players with something to prove.

Root and Bairstow could use some runs, but they're proven quality.

Malan has to start ahead of Roy, unless Roy plays v Ireland and bangs out a couple of centuries.

I would take Malan’s assuredness and consistency over Roy’s ability to provide quick starts or that game changing knock. A fifty plus score in every second ODI is nuts and he’s also demonstrated an ability to play in very spin friendly conditions with that Mirpur century.

I’d ask Bairstow to go ham in the powerplay instead and have Stokes play a role similar to what Morgan did in 2019 as a middle order hitter first and foremost.

the Hain train has arrived

 

[wasteyouryouth]

Great debut for Hain

 

[wasteyouryouth]

Ten-ball over to start Scrimshaw's debut. Really trying to show he didn't deserve to be on the bench for The Hundred.

 

[wasteyouryouth]

Six no balls and a wide in his first eleven balls. Then a wicket. 1 for 35 after 2.

Rollercoaster

 

[Pinch hitter]

England bowling well or Ireland gave away wickets easily... can't understand at the moment...
