Off Topic T20 World Cup

Roy hits four fours in the first over. At that rate, it'll be over in 9.5 overs...

 

Good start with the bat

 

Roy looking good, just need him to stay there

 

49 without loss after 4. We thought that NZ had started really well. They were 31-1 at this stage...

 

First wicket down. Hales goes for 20, England now 82-1 after 8.2 overs. And in comes Joe Root...

 

Probably not what you want to hear if you are a New Zealander.

 

Two quick wickets, and another duck for Morgan. It shouldn't matter... should it?

 

Don't you felching dare England.........

 

Scores are level....

 

And a big six to finish it! England in the World T20 final!!!

 

Well played England, especially Roy and Jordan!

Superb performance

 

Very good performance, I will admit I didn't think we'd get this far after the Chris Gayle show in the 1st game

 

Brilliant stuff from England.
Got in from work just in time to see the last few overs.

Let's win this thing!!

 

Done well in Rugby and cricket this year. Just need the football now for the hat trick. Well done.

 

Only caught the last 6 overs but Jos Butler was brilliant at the death, well done England. Hoping for India in the final, that will be some atmosphere!

 

Fantastic performance from England, particularly with bat.

Could just be the boost England needed especially as New Zealand were the in-form team.

A comfortable win in the end. To restrict NZ to 153 from 89/1 at halfway was an excellent performance by the bowlers - Jordan and Stokes in particular - and England's batting line-up could be fancied to chase down almost any score on their day. I'd prefer West Indies in the final because we owe them, but India would bring a fantastic atmosphere - I shan't be watching football on Sunday afternoon, that's for sure.

 

Here we go!!

Good luck boys.
