    Brilliant performance.

    Still some work to do in certain areas etc. but can’t fault that performance really.

    First innings after conceding 550 to get up close to that, could have easily been bowled out for 300 and be staring down innings defeat.

    What an innings and dramatic turnabout.

    That's turned a under pressure draw into a slamming win from nowhere

    I was delighted, that's what low expectations deliver.

    England were 50 odd for 3 and headed for the toilet and bairstow steps up.

    That's a record chase at trent Bridge and historic

    Quite amazing. I was at the pub when I saw Root had gone. Said to the landlord (who plays and knows his cricket) that it was about time Bairstow stepped up and delivered a meaningful innings <laugh>

    498. Last 12 overs went for 198 runs.

    Roy went out for 1 run from 7 balls and Morgan Was a golden duck.

    Buttler the second fastest ODI century by an Englishman ever, one ball off the record (he has the top 3 places) and Livingstone has England's fastest ODI 50, Joint second of all time and also only one ball off the record.

    Malan and Salt also got centuries.

    the average size of a golf course is 150 acres.

    the average size of a cricket ground is 5 acres.

    a golf course is worth 750-1000 family sized houses where as a cricket ground or football ground is only worth apartments like highbury was. they got 725 boxes into that site which just goes to show.

    which is the bigger waste?
