    Scratchy 50 from Ben but wow did we need. Well played Eng. Champs. Wonder how much closer it would have been if Shaheen hadn’t got injured?

    To be fair their bowling was consistently aggressive and mostly excellent.

    Could watch Rashid's googly to Babar all night. Love seeing good leg spin.

    Why does Ali not bowl, anyone know?

    Statistics and "match-ups" have become all the rage in short-form cricket in recent times. They say that an off-spinner like Moeen is more likely to be hit for boundaries by a right-handed batter than a leg-spinner would be. And because there are more right-handed batters than left-handers, someone like Moeen barely gets a bowl these days as a result (unless the pitch is turning square).

    New 2 year deal for Abbas at Hants. That confirms the two overseas slots for the CC for a while then.

    Really great news.

    Hopefully we also get Ellis back for the t20s.

    3 and final. ODI

    Australia - 355-5. Off. 48 overs .

    now I would have thought we would need 356 to win , but NO. On the BBC they are saying we need 364 to win under DL .

    So batting second we have to score 9 more than Australia .

    Can someone please explain that ?
