    Jos Buttler - wow!
    And Morgan, Hales and Bairstow weren't too shabby either.
    24 sixes by England.

    Very brave from Morgan to stick with Rashid, his captaincy is why England are so good in limited overs

    Rashid, like most spinners, is always liable to get some tap on a good wicket.
    But many batsmen - especially 7 downwards - can't read him so he becomes such a wicket taking threat (as he proved last night).
    When there some help in the wicket, he can be economical too.
    128 wickets in 82 ODIs with an economy rate of 5.58 is impressive.
    His record in last couple of years is phenomenal

    A calm voice of reason in an otherwise hot-headed sport, RIP Charlie.

    Good news for WWE: they're getting some mainstream coverage in the lead-up to WrestleMania

    Bad news for WWE: it's John Oliver absolutely tearing the company's ludicrous "independent contractor" status of their roster to shreds
