All done. Buttler hit the winning 4.
Into the semi finals no matter what happens later

That last 4 saved my bacon.
Backed England to have the highest opening partnership, highest score after 6 overs and the most fours and sixes.
I thought Jos had messed it up after that super over!!!

Durham close on 445/4 on day one. Robinson 146* and Ackerman 58*
Going at just under 5 an over, cracking day that.

Very good. Go and pile them on tomorrow
Still go a couple lads to come in who can bat as well (Pottsy was an opening batter when he was younger) see where they are at lunch tomorrow and go for a massive total.
Stunning analysis as always dickhead
England charged into the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup with a ruthless 10-wicket thrashing of the United States.
Chris Jordan took a hat-trick - England's first in men's T20s - as the USA were dismissed for just 115 in Barbados.
And defending champions England chased their target in just 9.4 overs meaning they are guaranteed to progress because of their excellent net run-rate.
Captain Jos Buttler ended on a brutal 83 not out - a knock which included five sixes in one Harmeet Singh over which cost 31.
Earlier Jordan's hat-trick was part of a run of five wickets in six balls, four taken by the 35-year-old on the island of his birth as he returned figures of 4-10.
England do not yet know when, where or who they will play their semi-final but it will be on Wednesday (Thursday 01:30 BST) in Trinidad or Thursday (15:30 BST) in Guyana.
They could yet top Group 2 if West Indies beat South Africa later on Sunday (Monday 01:30 BST).
After that the picture will become clearer when Australia meet India on Monday in what is likely to be a must-win fixture for England's Ashes rivals.
England could meet either of those two, Afghanistan or less likely Bangladesh, in the last four as they hunt a third world T20 title in a campaign that almost met a premature end two weeks ago.

Thank god we beat them, the yanks would have been yanking at beating us at cricket for the next 50 years
Great show by England to-day , Rashid rightly MoM with Butler and Jordan also outstanding in a great team performance , we are building nicely just at the right time.. OaU
Ollie Robinson done his chances no harm with another score - 198. Hes got to be next in line for the gloves for England surely?
