Don't normally criticise players, but I was happy that Brad got out, he was too slow on previous games when we needed to push on, that is what happened, we pushed on.
It'll be interesting what we do, should we make the SF and Dawson and/or Northeast are fit again. On Sunday Dawson said that he was two to three weeks away, and Northeast a week behind that. So three days later, that roughly equates to two weeks and three weeks respectively. Well the SFs aren't until June 17th and 18th; even the QFs aren't until the 14th, should we have to go through them first. So there's a real chance that at least one of them will be back, possibly both. Still two group games to go yet, so things might yet change. But based on the situation today, I think I would be quite ruthless and leave out both Alsop and Taylor. We've also got the possibility of Steyn featuring next week. But as far as I'm aware, he'll have left to play for SA before the KO stages come along.
This is the point where England fans start high-fiving....then the opposition put on another few hundred.
174 all out. Curran's first wicket for England. There are some who will think that England will easily better that....all I can say is that you have probably not watched England very often.
