another 6.. england poking it about then pop a big one in.... 72 from 36 for roy. root now just standing watching him.
england not trying hard. poking it about on spin. took 5 singles. 51/55 required 9 overs left. come on lads... get it done.
need to put hammer down now. that was all slow to get roy a 100. ge ton with it now. quci k20 runs each
spin on... game over. 2 from 19... I looked away for 5mins!!!! england ran though another there after a bad stumping. draw
Yes. I felt it got nervy a bit and almost as if they started trying to get Roy a century. Maybe they just played waiting for the spin to come back on I dunno... but buttler just decided on the over it did to end it. ..... Not sure if we will want to lead out or chase in final... The venue has hosted a pre tournament match between India and West Indies, so both teams have experience here. India moved Pakistan game here too. Have we played there? This could be absolutely key. I hope for Windies in final as it's get Gayle game.
Trouble is Gayle is the no 1 player you don't want to get used to the wicket. I watched him in that record scoring t20 match. Him mainly and kholi were outstanding. So we will end up with a player who can take game away from you. Don't forget dhoni is a match winner as well
Of the two teams, I'd prefer the windies - pretty much a one man team, whereas India aren't, and will have a modicum of local support
