Off Topic Cricket 2019

I'd take that now.

 

England so often let the tail wag..... Instead of putting them to the sword efficiently

 

Aussies escape another review with umpire's call.
They're just getting a bit of luck right now.

 

Looks like 230 - 240 will be the target....

In that awkward range and a good chance to defend with their quality bowlers

 

Great throw by Buttler. Smith run out.

 

Needed that bit of magic from Buttler. Keep it to 230.

 

And another goes!!

 

And another. 9 down.
Woakes on a hatrick.

 

One was a run out, Col.

 

Have to give Smith some modicum of credit as Aussies would have been in an even deeper hole without him.....

 

Oh yes.
Great yorker from Wood wraps it up.
224 to win.

Nervous? Me?

 

Great stuff.

Now just bat sensibly, No cheap wickets

 

Would have taken that at the outset.

Nice and steady, keep your heads lads.

Or, alternatively, slog it in 25 overs.

 

Brilliant performance after losing the toss.....

Now for a very nervy afternoon

 

It looks like it's another one of those tricky pitches, 224 should be a comfortable target but with the quality of the Aussie bowlers it could be a close call. These lower scoring matches are actually much more entertaining, you just don't know how it's going to go...

 

Well played lads, that wasn't quite what I expected, yours to lose now, fingers crossed

 

It is well within our skill set to **** this up completely.

 

25 for 0 after 10 would be perfectly OK.

 

A very casual 6 from Roy, they look in good nick...

 

Whisper it......

Going nicely so far....
